‘Rise of the Roach’ is coming to Dublin! Papa Roach – have announced their long-awaited return to play their biggest Irish headliner yet

Papa Roach have just released a brand-new single called “Wake Up Calling,” and unveiled the next wave of their ‘Rise Of The Roach’ world tour, with dates confirmed across Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, Europe, and now the UK & Ireland.

The band has just announced their return to Ireland and the UK later this year for another headline run, following their biggest shows yet last year, including a sold-out Wembley show. The tour will kick off at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro on 1st November through to Cardiff’s Utilita Arena on 9th November, with a stop at London’s The O2 along the way. Tickets go on sale at 10AM – Friday 13th February 2026.

Always philanthropic, the band presented Campaign Against Living Miserably with a £20,000 cheque at their sold-out headline show at Wembley Arena from funds raised during their short UK tour and will be supporting the charity again in November, with a £1 donation per ticket. Their Irish show will support the national charity Pieta.

Papa Roach stated: “To say that we were humbled by the response to the first leg of the ‘Rise Of The Roach’ UK tour would be an understatement. All of us are excited to return to the UK and Ireland to play more cities with a few surprises in store for fans”
