Johnny Depp set for two Yorkshire shows this summer

Johnny Depp will return to Yorkshire this August as part of a UK run with his rock band, Hollywood Vampires. The group will play Scarborough Open Air Theatre on 15 August and The Piece Hall in Halifax on 22 August, following a tour kick‑off at the O2 in London.

Band lineup and setlist highlights

Hollywood Vampires features Depp alongside veteran rock figures Alice Cooper and guitarist Tommy Henriksen, with Aerosmith’s Joe Perry also part of the lineup. The band, formed in 2015, blends covers of classic rock anthems with original material — performing songs by The Who, Led Zeppelin, Motörhead, plus hits from Cooper and Aerosmith.

Tour return after nearly three years

These will be the band’s first live shows in almost three years. The announcement follows Hollywood Vampires’ sold‑out appearance at Scarborough OAT in 2023 and other high‑profile moments, including Depp’s surprise on‑stage appearance in Sheffield in May 2022 while touring with guitarist Jeff Beck.

Support and ticket information

Punk pioneers The Damned will support Hollywood Vampires at both Yorkshire dates. Promoters say tickets will go on sale later this month; fans are advised to check venue websites and official ticket outlets for exact sale times and pricing.

What promoters and the band say

Julian Murray of Scarborough OAT promoter Cuffe and Taylor described the group as “rock royalty,” noting the strong demand after their previous sell‑out. The band said of the upcoming shows: “We’re looking forward to incredible crowds, massive energy and more unforgettable nights.”

Where this sits in the wider tour

After the two Yorkshire stops, Hollywood Vampires are scheduled to continue dates across the UK and Europe as part of a wider tour. The Scarborough and Halifax dates add to a busy summer calendar at both venues, which will also host artists such as Michael Bublé and Madness in 2026.

What fans should know

If you plan to attend, arrive early for support sets and expect security checks at outdoor venues. Keep an eye on official social channels and venue pages for any updates or changes to set times.
