2026 DATES ANNOUNCED! 📢

We don’t need to tell you that times are tough, and with the rising cost of LITERALLY EVERYTHING its harder and harder for bands to get on the road, and harder and harder for audiences (that’s you) to make it to shows…

BUT, as always we soldier on regardless, and we’ve been working extremely hard these last few months to fill up our diary and bring The Zipheads to a town near you.

Please buy tickets in advance whenever you can, it’s cheaper for you and reduces the risk for us, promoters and the venues. Thank you so much to everyone who has bought a ticket, a record or merch this year, we are grateful to be one of the few bands out there who can still make touring (just about) viable- and we couldn’t do it without you. ❤️
