Overview

Deep Purple “Mad In Japan Tour” 2026 is a thunderous, heritage-heavy homecoming by Deep Purple, the British hard rock legends (formed 1968 in Hertford) of Ian Gillan (vocals), Steve Morse (guitar), Don Airey (keyboards), Roger Glover (bass), and Ian Paice (drums), whose pioneering proto-metal riffs and Hammond organ hurricanes have defined rock since Deep Purple in Rock (1970), with 100M+ sales and anthems like “Smoke on the Water”, “Highway Star”, and “Black Night” earning them Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2016.

This Japan-exclusive leg—their first since 2023’s Whoosh! promotion—spans April 11 to April 15, 2026, across three cities, delivering ~120–150 minute “mad in Japan” marathons of Whoosh! deep cuts, Mk III classics (“Woman From Tokyo”), and crowd-chorused staples like “Space Truckin'” amid pyrotechnic pyres and prime pounding.

Kicking off at Tokyo’s Nippon Budokan on April 11 (Sat), 18:00 (doors 17:00), hitting Osaka’s Gran Cube Osaka on April 13 (Mon), 19:00 (doors 18:00), and climaxing at Nagoya’s Okaya Nagoya Hall on April 15 (Wed), 19:00 (doors 18:00), it’s a “smoke pilgrimage” of sonic sorcery. Hailed on X as “Deep Purple’s Japan jihad” and “Budokan’s ‘Smoke on the Water’ shrine,” this Ear Music/Kyodo Tokyo production—celebrating 50+ years—revives “Highway Star” heritage with prime pyrotechnics.

Tickets ¥22,000 (A) / ¥23,000 (S, +¥880 service) via lottery (Nov 1–5, 2025, 12:00–23:59 JST) on Pia; results Nov 7, 2025. Secure via Pia—this mad maraud is primed for swift sellouts.

Why Attend

Revel in 3-city smoke pilgrimage: from Tokyo’s Budokan bang to Osaka’s Gran Cube grandeur to Nagoya’s Okaya odyssey, each a unique sonic siege with 50+ year heritage and “Black Night” blackouts. Embrace rock royalty pilgrimage: from 1968’s Shades of Deep Purple to 2024’s Whoosh!—sonic sovereigns scouting their voyage through 120–150 minute barrages of “Space Truckin'” space trucks and fan-fueled falsettos.
