Muse are coming to Paris La Défense Arena on 27 November 2026 as part of The Wow! Signal Tour. Backed by their tenth studio album, The Wow! Signal, released on 26 June 2026 via Warner Records, Matthew Bellamy, Christopher Wolstenholme and Dominic Howard return to Paris for one of the autumn’s defining rock events, produced by Live Nation & Alias Production.
MUSE: THIRTY YEARS OF ROCK THAT DEFIES GRAVITY
Formed in 1994 in Teignmouth, Devon, by Matthew Bellamy (vocals, guitar, piano), Christopher Wolstenholme (bass) and Dominic Howard (drums), Muse has established itself over three decades as one of the most ambitious and spectacular rock bands on the planet. From post-grunge beginnings to a progressive universe blending space rock, electronica and metal, the trio has forged an instantly recognisable sound — a sonic dystopia where guitar riffs meet sweeping orchestrations and futuristic synths.
Widely regarded as one of the greatest live acts in the world — BBC Radio One named them the best living British band — they have graced the world’s biggest stages, from Wembley Stadium (two consecutive sold-out nights in 2007) to the largest arenas across Europe and North America. Paris shares a unique bond with Muse: the city is their second most-played city in the world, with over 44 recorded concerts. Every one of their appearances in France has turned into a total sensory experience, combining pyrotechnics, drones, robots and science-fiction visual storytelling that redefines arena show standards with each tour.
THE WOW! SIGNAL: TEN ALBUMS, ONE LEGEND
Over a career spanning more than thirty years, Muse has sold over 30 million albums worldwide and earned two Grammy Awards for Best Rock Album — for The Resistance (2009) and Drones (2015) — along with two Brit Awards, five MTV Europe Music Awards, eleven NME Awards and seven Q Awards. From Origin of Symmetry (2001) to Black Holes and Revelations (2006), from The Resistance (2009) to Will of the People (2022, number one in the UK and several countries worldwide), each album has pushed the boundaries of arena rock.
Their tenth record, The Wow! Signal (Warner Records, 26 June 2026), is a concept album inspired by the famous 72-second radio signal detected in 1977 from the direction of the Sagittarius constellation, which suggested the possibility of extraterrestrial contact. Exploring themes of cosmic communication, technological anxiety and existential wonder, the band delivers a production blending heavy metal, progressive rock and electronics. Announced from space in March 2026 with the single “Be With You” — which surpassed 3 million streams in its first week and reached the Top 5 of US Alternative radio — the album has unfolded through “Cryogen”, “Hexagons”, “Unravelling” (first unveiled in 2025) and the brand new single “Nightshift Superstar”, released on 11 June 2026. With over 21 million monthly listeners on Spotify, Muse deliver with The Wow! Signal an album at the peak of their powers.
Tracklist: The Dark Forest / Nightshift Superstar / Shimmering Scars / Cryogen / Be With You / Hexagons / The Sickness In You & I / Unravelling / Hush / Space Debris.
A PARIS DATE ON A WORLD TOUR
On 27 November 2026, Paris La Défense Arena hosts the Paris date of The Wow! Signal Tour. Following a North American run taking the band across the US and Canada from July through late August — including a headline slot at Summerfest in Milwaukee and a closing night at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles — Muse return to Europe for a series of arena dates across Manchester, London, Berlin, Milan, Düsseldorf, Amsterdam and Zurich. The largest indoor venue in Europe, holding 40,000 spectators in the heart of La Défense, is the setting that matches the band’s stage ambitions: productions that push the technological limits of arena shows with every tour. Expect an entirely new staging built around the cosmic world of The Wow! Signal, with a set design as monumental as it is immersive.
