Billy Corgan is conducting a European tour to commemorate the 30th anniversary of The Smashing Pumpkins’ album, ‘Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness’. The production transforms the 20-track album into a stage experience that blends rock with opera, featuring a 100-piece symphony orchestra and a choir.

Initial performances in cities such as Rotterdam, Antwerp, Paris, and Madrid have seen high demand. In Madrid, following the sell-out of original dates at the Vistalegre Palace, a limited series of new tickets was released for shows on September 11 and 12. Due to continued interest, additional performances have been scheduled at venues including the Koningin Elisabethzaal in Antwerp and Bozar in Brussels. The setlist includes orchestral reinterpretations of classic tracks such as ‘1979’, ‘Zero’, ‘Tonight, Tonight’, and ‘Thirty-Three’.
