Steve Jones, Paul Cook, Glen Matlock of Sex Pistols featuring Frank Carter Continue 50th Anniversary Year With Summer 2026 Tour And “Jubilee” Release
In a year defined by milestones, Steve Jones, Paul Cook, Glen Matlock of the Sex Pistols featuring Frank Carter are bringing their uncompromising energy back to stages across Europe with a run of highly anticipated summer 2026 tour dates.
As the band celebrates 50 years of cultural disruption, this new wave of live activity reaffirms their status as one of the most influential and enduring forces in modern music. Fans can expect a setlist that spans the band’s incendiary early output through to the tracks that helped define a generation—delivered with the raw intensity that continues to inspire audiences worldwide.
Marking the anniversary in further style, the band has also partnered with Marshall to launch the limited-edition JCM800 Sex Pistols 50th Anniversary Half Stack. Developed in collaboration with Steve Jones, the iconic 100W head and matching 4x12 cabinet channel the raw, uncompromising sound that defined British punk, wrapped in the unmistakable pink-and-yellow aesthetic of Never Mind the Bollocks. A highly limited release worldwide, it stands as both a collector’s piece and a tribute to the amplifier that helped shape the band’s signature tone (HERE).
Coinciding with this landmark year, the band also marked Record Store Day 2026 with the release of "Jubilee (25th Anniversary Edition)" - a limited pink vinyl pressing available exclusively through independent record stores. Originally issued in 2002 to commemorate both the band’s 25th anniversary and Queen Elizabeth II’s Golden Jubilee, the collection brings together the Sex Pistols’ essential singles and stands as a companion piece to their ongoing live resurgence.
Together, the recent Record Store Day release and the upcoming tour underscore the band’s lasting impact and continued relevance, five decades on.
As the summer dates approach, Steve Jones, Paul Cook and Glen Matlock of Sex Pistols’ return serves as both celebration and statement: the raw energy, defiance, and influence of punk remain as powerful now as ever.
