Rock legend Billy Idol is set to return to the road this summer for the next leg of his highly successful world tour, It’s A Nice Day To…Tour Again!, which saw Idol sell out venues across the U.S., Europe and Latin America. Produced by Live Nation, the run of arenas and amphitheatres kicks off at The Pavilion at Montage Mountain in Scranton, PA on August 7.

Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Wednesday, April 8 at 12 p.m. local time until Thursday, April 9 at 10 p.m. local time through the Citi Entertainment program. For complete presale details visit citientertainment.com.
Idol will also be performing a week-long run of shows at Las Vegas’ Fontainebleau for his Hot In The City: Las Vegas residency August 28–September 5; see below for a complete list of dates.
Idol’s live show has been hailed as “a strong, forceful show just crackling with energy” by the Houston Press, while Creative Loafing raves that Idol “has a lot left to offer and is capable of owning a concert stage with the same authority and charisma he’s always boasted” and the Dallas Observer adds that “over forty years into Billy Idol’s career, he remains just as remarkable as he started.”
The new feature-length documentary film Billy Idol Should Be Dead, directed by three-time Grammy-winner Jonas Åkerlund and produced by Live Nation Studios, is streaming now on Hulu following a successful theatrical run. The documentary—hailed as “informative and engaging” and “poignant” and “moving”—traces the life and career of punk pioneer turned rock ‘n’ roll icon Billy Idol.
In addition to the new documentary, Idol is also a nominee for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s Class of 2026 which will be announced shortly.
Idol’s first full-length album of new music in over a decade, Dream Into It, is out now on Dark Horse Records. The album reached #7 on the U.S. Top Albums Chart and #4 on the U.S. Current Rock Album Chart, #9 on the U.K. Official Album Sales Chart and #2 on the German Top 100 Album Chart, earning widespread critical acclaim.
The album includes performance and co-writing contributions throughout from Idol’s longtime guitarist/collaborator Steve Stevens plus appearances by Avril Lavigne, Joan Jett and Alison Mosshart of The Kills, and is produced by Tommy English.
Idol’s greatest hits compilation Idolize Yourself: The Very Best Of Billy Idol is also available now via UMe.
ABOUT BILLY IDOL
For almost 50 years, Billy Idol has been one of the definitive faces and voices of rock’n’roll. Between 1977 and 1981, Idol released three albums with Generation X as their frontman. In 1982, with guitarist Steve Stevens at his side, he embarked on a solo career that blended punk attitude with rock ‘n’ roll decadence on songs like “Dancing With Myself,” “White Wedding,” “Rebel Yell,” “Eyes Without A Face,” and “Cradle of Love.” Touring consistently around the world and showing no signs of slowing down, Idol continues to earn praise from fans and critics alike. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}
