How The Cure Tour Openers Get Announced
Most The Curetour openers aren't named when tickets go on sale. The supporting act is locked in per-region (sometimes per-show) and surfaces on the official Ticketmaster show page in the weeks before each stop. Click any date above to see whether the opener is confirmed yet — Catch Movement pulls live show pages daily, so the listed support act updates as soon as Ticketmaster does.
For headliners at The Cure's scale, expect a single opener doing a 30 to 45 minute set, sometimes with a regional rotation (a Canadian opener for CA dates, a US opener for the American leg). The opener slot doesn't require a separate ticket — your The Cure ticket covers the full show.
How to Find the Confirmed The Cure Opener for Your City
- Pick your city from the tour-date list above.
- Click through to that show's Ticketmaster page.
- Check the listing — confirmed openers appear under the headline name once added.
- Watch for updates — openers are sometimes added 2 to 4 weeks out, so check back if it's still TBA.
Do I Need a Separate Ticket for the Opener?
No. The The Cure ticket you buy from Ticketmaster covers the entire show — opener + headliner — at the same venue, same night. Doors usually open 60 to 90 minutes before the advertised start time; the opener typically performs first, with a 20 to 30 minute changeover before The Cure takes the stage.
The Cure Opening Act — FAQ
Will the same opener perform every night on the The Cure 2026 tour?▼
Sometimes — major tours often book one or two openers for the full run, but regional legs (e.g. Canada, UK, festival dates) frequently swap in local support acts. Confirmed openers are listed on each tour date below as Ticketmaster updates the lineup.
What time does the The Cure opener go on?▼
Openers typically take the stage 30–45 minutes after doors and play a 30–45 minute set, with The Cure hitting the stage roughly 75–90 minutes after doors. Exact set times appear on the official venue page on show day.
Does my ticket cover both the opener and The Cure?▼
Yes — one ticket covers every performer on the bill, including all opening acts. There is no separate ticket for the support performer.
