Duran Duran Halloween show
Saturday, 31 October 2026
View EventDuran Duran have given fans another reason to mark their calendars this autumn. Fresh off a headline slot at Hyde Park, the band have confirmed a one-off Halloween show in London on 31 October, added to their previously announced 2026 UK arena tour.
Billed as the Danse Macabre Halloween Party, the show promises a theatrical twist on the band's catalogue, with deep cuts, rarities, and a few surprises pulled out for the occasion. Fans are being encouraged to dress up, and organisers have teased Halloween-themed experiences running throughout the venue on the night, including themed screenings and surprise performances still to be confirmed.
The concept traces back to a one-off performance in Las Vegas in 2022, which went on to inspire the band's 2023 album Danse Macabre. Since then, the Halloween show has become an annual tradition, with previous editions selling out in New York and Manchester.
