Luxembourg instrumental post- rock trio The Cookie Jar Complot return to the UK in spring 2026 for a run of shows across England, sharing stages with bands such as Civil Service, Mastiff, Sugar Horse, Din of Celestial Birds and Poly-Math.

The Cookie Jar Complot return to the UK in 2026 with new songs and new venues. While their 2024 UK run brought the band to some of the UK’s best-known post-rock and math- rock venues, sharing bills with some of the UK underground heavy and alternative scene’s most exciting names now, they continue to push their cinematic blend of post-rock, math rock and atmospheric heaviness to wider audiences across England.

Known for their emotionally charged and dynamic instrumental performances, The Cookie Jar Complot have steadily carved out a place within the European alternative scene through appearances at festivals such as Out of the Crowd and Congés Annulés, as well as support slots for artists including Karnivool, standards, Poly-Math, Trupa Trupa, A Burial at Sea, FES and The Guru Guru. The band have also shared festival lineups with Les Savy Fav, The Murder Capital, A Place to Bury Strangers and Interpol.

The tour is being organised in collaboration with UK-based promoters including Lizard King Promotions, SERVANTS///SERPENTS PROMOTIONS, Melkor’s Song and Liquid Light Brewery.
