Global Touring Deal Marks Return of Faith No More
On June 16 2026 the reactivated alternative-metal band Faith No More announced a long-term partnership with South-American promoter 30e. The agreement grants 30e the strategic and operational hub for the band’s future worldwide touring projects, positioning the promoter at the center of a global touring strategy that will likely culminate in a 2027 reunion tour. Worldwide agency WME, which represents the band, helped broker the deal.
Background: Past Disbandments and Unfulfilled Tours
Faith No More originally disbanded in 1998, reformed for a 2009 run, and halted activity again in 2021 after vocalist Mike Patton faced mental-health challenges during the pandemic. The band has not mounted a formal tour since 2015; a planned 2020 reunion and tour were cancelled because of COVID-19. Recent reports indicate Patton has reconnected with his bandmates in spring 2026 and has been revisiting the group’s catalog while touring with AVTT/PTTN, suggesting a shift in his stance toward a full-band return.
Key Figures and Organizations
- Faith No More – the band, collectively speaking in the announcement.
- Mike Patton – vocalist whose recent reconnection is noted.
- Tim Moss – manager of Faith No More.
- WME – worldwide agency representing the band.
- 30e – South-American promoter; CEO Pepeu Correa.
Data and Recent Precedents
30e’s credibility stems from a similar long-term deal signed earlier in 2026 with System of a Down. In 2025 the promoter partnered with that band on a South-American stadium tour that grossed $51.95 million across nine shows. Faith No More’s last formal tour occurred in 2015, and the new contract is the first concrete touring framework emerging from the stalled 2020 comeback.
Official Statements & Responses
Faith No More described 30e as a company “that wants to dent into the status quo,” emphasizing that the promoter’s approach feels distinct from “the usual machinery.” Manager Tim Moss highlighted the band’s unconventional path and said the partnership aligns with their vision for “fresh perspective, real strategic depth, and global ambition.” 30e CEO Pepeu Correa echoed the sentiment, noting the band’s “transgressive DNA” and the joint aim to build a platform for global experiences. WME’s involvement underscores the continued importance of U.S. and European markets even as a Latin-American promoter assumes a central role.
