After an incredible 40-plus-year run on the road, Belgian EBM act Front 242 are setting an end to their live concert career, announcing their final performances to take place in the fall and winter of 2024-2025. The band makes the announcement today in conjunction with International EBM Day (noted as 24/2 in European territories).
The concerts stretch across the globe, including a dozen dates in the U.S. beginning September 6 in Tampa, Florida and running through November 15 and 16 in the band’s second home in Chicago. The band’s final performances will be in their hometown of Brussels, Belgium in January 2025.
“It is with a heavy mix of emotion that we close this great adventure, some 40 years in the making,” say Patrick, Richard and Lean Juc, the band’s core members. “We realize that ending our journey at this time, when we are still vibrant and full of energy is how the band should be remembered. We are excited to share these meaningful final performances with our wonderful fans who have been with us through it all.”
All tickets will go on sale Friday March 1. Find more information at www.front242.com.
