Steel Pulse Announces โReggae Against Racismโ World Tour 2026
Birmingham, UK โ Legendary roots reggae band Steel Pulse today announced their โReggae Against Racism โ World Tour 2026,โ a global concert series dedicated to unity, justice, peace, and the enduring power of reggae music as a force for social change.
Spanning major cities across Europe, North America, Africa, Asia, and Latin America, the tour will celebrate more than five decades of music and activism from one of reggaeโs most influential bands.
Known for their uncompromising stance against racism and oppression, Steel Pulse continues to use their music as a platform to promote equality, dignity, and human rights.
โReggae music has always been a voice for the people,โ said frontman David Hinds. โ50 years ago we played Rock Against Racism. Since then, Rock has turned into Pop โ and may have lost its rebel edge. Roots Reggae has for the most part stayed pretty much on point โ fighting against injustice to this very day. And now, at a time when division and intolerance are rising around the world, we believe itโs more important than ever to stand together and state clearly: racism has no place in society.โ
The Reggae Against Racism โ World Tour 2026 also pays tribute to the historic โRock Against Racismโ movement that emerged in the United Kingdom in the mid 1970s. Steel Pulse played a leading role in that movement alongside artists such as The Clash, Tom Robinson Band, Matumbi and more, bringing black and white musicians together on stage to confront racism and the rise of far-right extremism through music and solidarity.
The Reggae Against Racism โ World Tour 2026 will feature:
- Classic anthems from Steel Pulseโs historic catalog
- New music addressing todayโs global struggles for justice
- Collaborations with local artists and activists in select cities
- Community dialogues and cultural events promoting unity and awareness
