The Cure headlines Rock Werchter festival with a 29‑song set
British rock band The Cure delivered a 29‑song performance at Belgium’s Rock Werchter festival, marking their eighth appearance and the 45th anniversary of their first show at the event. The set featured a mix of classics from albums such as *Disintegration* and *Wild Mood Swings*, while tracks from their latest album *Songs of a Lost World* were omitted. Notable songs included “Plainsong,” “Just Like Heaven,” “Burn,” and “A Forest,” with a brief encore that added “Never Enough” and “Mint Car.”
Audience reaction was overwhelmingly positive, with fans describing the concert as “incredible” and praising Robert Smith’s vocal stamina. Following the festival, The Cure will continue their European summer tour, with upcoming headline dates in Manchester’s Wythenshawe Park and other festivals across the continent.
