Interest in Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds’ return to Croatia has far exceeded expectations, with tickets for their 5 August concert at Pula Arena selling out within days.
Due to overwhelming demand, a second date – 4 August – has now been added, and tickets are already on sale.
The Pula concerts form part of the band’s monumental 2026 European summer tour, marking their powerful return to major stages and festivals across the continent.
Following a string of sold-out shows on their Wild God tour, Cave and his long-time collaborators will perform a career-spanning setlist that includes tracks from their acclaimed 2024 album Wild God, last heard live in Croatia during their previous visit that year.
The group’s 2026 European tour begins on 10 June at Malahide Castle in Ireland, before travelling through Germany, Denmark, the Czech Republic, Austria, Greece, Italy, Belgium, Portugal, France, the United Kingdom, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Norway, and Lithuania.
The tour will conclude on 28 August at Rock en Seine Festival in France, with additional dates expected to be announced soon.

An exclusive, already sold-out Brighton show at Preston Park on 31 July will also feature on the tour, a deeply personal “homecoming” performance for Cave, who has long had close ties with the city.
When Cave takes to the Pula Arena stage on 5 August (and now also on 4 August), he will be joined by his trusted ensemble: Warren Ellis, Colin Greenwood, Jim Sclavunos, George Vjestica, Larry Mullins, and Carly Paradis,
