Having performed at the annual German alternative‑music festival M'era Luna in early August, Canadian electronic rock/dark pop act The Birthday Massacre will return to Europe in late November for their previously announced Cursed Blessings co‑headline run with US artist Wednesday 13. The itinerary has now been expanded to include four additional German dates and will conclude with three UK shows. The full schedule is listed below.
This mainland European tour marks the group's first return since the release of their current album, Pathways, which was issued in April 2025 via Metropolis Records and received glowing reviews worldwide. A sold‑out UK tour followed in the autumn, further cementing the band's reputation for their distinctive blend of electronic rock, dark pop, and cinematic atmospheres. Link
