THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS
Alternative rock band led by Jared Leto celebrates two of their most successful albums on upcoming tour
Few bands have defined an era over the last 20 years of their career and continuously evolved themselves and their sound as much as Thirty Seconds to Mars. Founded in 1998 in Los Angeles by brothers Jared and Shannon Leto, the multi-platinum award-winning band has sold over 15 million albums worldwide during this time and celebrated their music together with their fans on global headline tours and headline performances at the biggest festivals in the world. Throughout their career, they have also received numerous awards, including several MTV Awards, Kerrang! Awards, a Billboard Music Award, and even a Guinness World Record for the longest tour in history. Now, Thirty Seconds to Mars announces a special tour that will take them to Munich, Vienna, Frankfurt, Berlin, Hanover, and Cologne in April 2027.
Before Thirty Seconds to Mars achieved their global breakthrough, they released their debut album "30 Seconds to Mars" in 2002. The global turning point followed in 2005 with the successful album "A Beautiful Lie," which catapulted the band into new spheres. They built on this status in 2009 with their next hit album "This Is War," as well as the two subsequent albums "Love, Lust, Faith and Dreams" (2013) and "America" (2018), proving especially with the latter that they had lost none of the brilliance of their breakthrough albums. "America" became a number-one album in both Austria and Germany and marked the band's peak so far, narrowly missing the top spot on the Billboard 200 with a second-place finish. In 2023, they made a triumphant return with their sixth studio album "It’s The End Of The World But It’s A Beautiful Day" and new fan favorites like "Stuck" and "Seasons." The band also demonstrated their readiness to promote their music prominently, as Jared Leto did in 2023: the singer, multi-instrumentalist, and Oscar-winning actor climbed the Empire State Building in New York City to announce the Seasons World Tour 2024.
After three German open-air shows in the summer of 2025, the band will celebrate the 20th anniversary of their breakthrough album "A Beautiful Lie" in 2026 with a special re-release that includes four previously unreleased tracks and an acoustic version of their biggest hit "The Kill." A music video for this version was also released, capturing the band's journey so far and their connection with their fans over the last 20 years. To further celebrate the album, Thirty Seconds to Mars will return to the stage in 2027 with "Thirty Seconds to Mars Presents A Beautiful Lie vs This Is War," presenting a worldwide tour that celebrates "A Beautiful Lie" and "This Is War" – two of their most iconic albums. With dates in Europe, the UK, South Africa, and other countries yet to be announced, the tour promises a powerful, nostalgia-driven live experience rooted in the two albums that have defined a whole generation.
