Tours

Formed in 1980, Depeche Mode are a prolific touring outfit with a history spanning four decades, having evolved from a group of Basildon youths playing local gigs with their keyboards balanced on beer crates to playing to a crowd of 60,452 at the Rose Bowl in 1988, later becoming an international touring phenomenon that would sell-out four back-to-back shows at the Hollywood Bowl in 2017.

This page details each tour Depeche Mode have collectively embarked on, as well as the individual solo tours of Dave Gahan, Martin Gore, and Alan Wilder's Recoil project.
