The Smashing Pumpkins have announced The Rats In A Cage Tour, a 27-date North American run built around the 30th anniversary of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.
The band says the tour will begin on September 30, 2026 and end on November 12, 2026, with dates in the United States and Canada. General on-sale is listed for May 21, 2026.
According to the announcement, each night will feature two distinct sets. One will be centered on Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, while the other will cover songs across the group’s catalog.
The tour news follows the band’s official confirmation on its website and is also being reported by music outlets including JamBase, Loudwire, Blabbermouth, and TicketNews.
The announcement gives the Pumpkins a clear anniversary-era hook for the fall, with a full-album set paired with a career-spanning second half. Additional dates could still be added later, but none have been confirmed in the initial rollout.
