DEPECHE MODE Announced First Live Shows in Five Years including Toronto!
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Class of 2020 inductees Depeche Mode announced at a special event in Berlin that they will be releasing a new album and embarking on a world tour in 2023. The Memento Mori Tour will support the band’s forthcoming 15th studio album, Memento Mori, due out in Spring 2023. It’s the follow-up to 2017’s critically acclaimed Spirit, which reached #1 in 11 territories, charting in the Top 5 in more than 20 others.
Dave Gahan and Martin Gore revealed today that the Live Nation-presented tour will begin with a special, limited series of North American arena dates before the band heads to Europe for their summer stadium tour.
The Memento Mori Tour will be Depeche Mode’s 19th tour and their first in over five years. The band’s most recent outing, the 2017-2018 Global Spirit Tour was its longest to date and was one of the year’s highest grossing tours, with the band playing to more than 3 million fans over the course of 130 shows across Europe and North America.
Founding member Andrew (Andy) “Fletch” Fletcher sadly passed away on May 26, 2022 at the age of 60 suffering an aortic dissection while at home. Gahan and Gore stated “we are shocked and filled with overwhelming sadness with the untimely passing of our dear friend, family member and bandmate Andy ‘Fletch’ Fletcher.” Former Depeche Mode member Alan Wilder said Fletcher’s death was “a real bolt from the blue.”
The Memento Mori World Tour kicks off March 23, 2023 in Sacramento, California and wraps up August 11 in Oslo, Norway with a stop in Toronto Friday April 7, 2023 at the Scotiabank Arena.
