Goths Unite! The Cure Is Coming Back to Miami This Summer

For three years, we've had the Disease, then the Vaccine, and now, finally, we have the Cure. No, not for COVID-19 — the band!

Everyone's favorite goth rockers are back and gothier than ever. The Cure has just announced its triumphant return to North America with its first tour on the continent since 2019. Even better news: The band is closing out the tour in Miami, on Saturday, July 1, at Miami-Dade Arena with openers the Twilight Sad. It's the Cure's first visit since the band's two-night run at Bayfront Park Amphitheater in 2016.

Founded in 1978, the Cure was celebrated for its inventive take on post-punk, defining the goth-rock genre and aesthetic for generations. Aside from hit albums like Disintegration and Pornography, the Cure inspired youths to don black clothing, obsess over death, and reject the shallow whims of polite society. The band also released a string of pop hits, including "Pictures of You" and "Friday I'm in Love." The Cure was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2019 and couldn't have cared less about it.

The Cure's last album was 2008's 4:13 Dream, and though lead singer Robert Smith has been teasing a new record for several years, it has yet to materialize.

Tickets for the Miami concert will be available on Wednesday, March 15, at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster. Currently, there is no general admission ticket sale date, only a Verified Fan presale. According to the band, this is being done to minimize scalping. The Cure recommends that fans register on its website in order to access the sale.
