Garbage 2024 is a 2024 headline concert tour by Scottish–American alternative rock band Garbage in support of their seventh studio album No Gods No Masters. Initially, the tour was solely a European tour which included dates in Scotland, Spain, Italy, France, England and Germany. By the conclusion of the European tour, Garbage announced three North American festival dates as an extension to the tour, with dates in Mexico and the United States, however the North American leg was later cancelled after frontwoman Shirley Manson suffered an injury during the tour that would require surgery and rehabilitation as confirmed by the band's official Instagram account.

Background

Posting on their official Instagram page on March 4, 2024, Garbage announced their first European tour in over five years, saying "So excited to announce that after 5 long years, we are finally returning to Europe this summer. Hope you will be able to join us". Tickets for the tour went on sale to the general public across Europe on 8 March 2024, with a pre–sale available on 7 March 2024. Garbage last toured in Europe in the summer of 2019, therefore this tour marks the first time the band plays songs from their album No Gods No Masters in the continent.

The first date of the tour was held in Italy on June 26 at the Circolo Magnolia in Milan. The tour continued with nine more dates in continental Europe and closed with six dates in the United Kingdom, the last date being at the OVO Arena Wembley in London, England on 20 July 2024.

The band was joined by Ginger Pooley on bass and backing vocals, marking the first time that another female musician performed with Garbage on tour and also that someone sang backing vocals.

Support was given by Lucia & The Best Boys in all dates except in Italy, where Romina Falconi opened for Garbage. Jehnny Beth was an additional guest on the closing show at the OVO Arena Wembley in London.

Following this headline tour and prior to the cancellation, Garbage was to play three festival dates: Festival Hera HSBC in Mexico City on August 24, HFStival in Washington D.C. on September 21, and Ohana Festival in Dana Point, California on September 27, before mixing and mastering their eighth studio album.
