U2 are taking their massive live operation back to outdoor stadiums. The legendary Irish rock outfit has officially revealed the European and British itinerary for their forthcoming 2027 world trek, titled "The Greatest Show on Earth." Fans across the continent will also get a powerhouse opening act, with British alt-rockers Wolf Alice confirmed to support Bono and company at every single stop on this leg. The newly revealed schedule follows massive buzz around the group's upcoming studio return. U2 are currently preparing to release *Carnaval De Luz*, marking their 16th full-length record. Ahead of the European announcement, high demand had already triggered added performances on their previously announced South American run, expanding stops in Mexico City, São Paulo, and Buenos Aires.

European concertgoers will see the quartet hitting major venues across the map. The newly revealed run features headline stadium stops in London, Berlin, Amsterdam, Milan, Lisbon, and Stockholm.

Organizers confirm that additional calendar dates covering North America, Spain, and the band's native Ireland are slated to be revealed in the near future. While full schedules are still taking shape behind the scenes, the group has already guaranteed a historic homecoming to close things out.

Guitarist The Edge teased that the massive global undertaking will eventually come full circle right where it all began. According to the musician, the band is still finalizing routing specifics, but the final curtain will officially come down on Irish soil. As he noted, there is simply nowhere else the group would rather host their ultimate closing celebration. The quartet also addressed the bold moniker chosen for the outing, calling the title a direct throwdown and a challenge issued to themselves to deliver unforgettable performances night after night. Between their anticipated new record *Carnaval De Luz* and a stacked roster of classic hits, the group is clearly aiming to prove their stadium dominance remains untouched.
