Depeche Mode in Paris
With over two million tickets sold on the Memento Mori Tour in 2023, and following sold-out shows across North America and Europe, Depeche Mode are currently touring an additional European leg.
Depeche Mode released their latest album «Memento Mori» in March 2023. It was the first Depeche Mode album to be recorded and released as a duo, after the death of co-founder and keyboardist Andy Fletcher in May 2022. The album charted in the top ten in Switzerland, France, the UK, Germany and many other countries, and was critically acclaimed, with its first single «Ghosts Again» hailed as a return to their 80s synth-pop sound.
Depeche Mode's second European Memento Mori Tour leg started in January 2024 in London and finishes in April in Cologne, Germany. Along the way on the 22-city tour, the band has stops at Berlin’s Mercedes-Benz Arena, Paris’ Accor Arena, Madrid’s Wizink Center, Milan’s Mediolanum Forum, and more.
There are unfortunately no concerts in Switzerland, so your nearest show is in Paris, just three hours away by train. The opening act is Suzie Stapleton.
When: 3 and 5 March 2024
