Die Toten Hosen Sell 1M Tickets For Open Air & Stadium Tour 2026/2027

German punk rock icons Die Toten Hosen have sold more than 1 million tickets for their upcoming “Trink Aus! Wir Müssen Gehen Tour”, which comprises 30 dates across Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and Luxembourg.

“Trink Aus! Wir Müssen Gehen” translates as “Drink up! We’ve got to go”, sparking speculation among fans about this tour being the band’s last.

Die Toten Hosen initially announced 23 dates, launching in June 2026 in Luxembourg, and closing in Vienna, Austria in September, with many of Germany’s best-known outdoor venues and stadiums on the itinerary in between.

Following the great demand and many requests to visit other regions of Germany, too, Die Toten Hosen added seven more dates scheduled for summer 2027.

The tour will now close July 10, 2027 at Merkur Spiel-Arena in Düsseldorf, which is the band’s hometown, and has therefore only intensified the speculation around “Trink Aus! Wir Müssen Gehen” being the band’s farewell run.

In between both tour legs, Die Toten Hosen will perform live in Argentina for the last time ever. The band and the Argentinian people share a special relationship, sparked by a German expat in the late 1980s.

The lore is that this expat joined the local punk scene, where he was asked if he knew Die Toten Hosen. Why the band already had a fanbase in Argentina is not known. What is known is that the expat wrote a letter to the band, asking if they’d consider performing in Argentina, which they did. Their first performance in the capital of Buenos Aires took place in 1992.

The band’s tour promoter is Kikis Kleiner Tourneeservice (KKT) from Berlin, founded by Christian “Kiki” Ressler, who’s been the band’s tour promoter in 1991. Since then Die Toten Hosen and KKT have realized 13 major tours together, selling some 7.4 million tickets in total. “That surprised even me,” Ressler told Pollstar.

KKT works with long-time local partners in all of the markets Die Toten Hosen tour in. “Some have been organizing the band’s concerts since the 1980s,” said Ressler, “our Bremen-based promoter, Koopmann Concerts, even organized the band’s very first concert in April 1982.”

The first time Die Toten Hosen make an appearance on the Pollstar Boxoffice is on the lineup of Rock am Ring/Rock im Park 2005. Their first headline date reported to Pollstar is a Dec. 5, 2007 show at Cologne’s Lanxess Arena, which sold 15,000 tickets at a $934,148 gross, promoted by KKT and local partner Prime Entertainment.

The band’s latest boxoffice report is from Aug. 31, 2025, when they performed at Fallan in Stockholm, Sweden, moving 1,610 tickets at a $101,246 gross. The show was part of the bands short European run this year, dubbed “Keep Calm and Carry On”, which also visited Copenhagen (Denmark), Warsaw (Poland), London (UK), Paris (France), Amsterdam (Netherlands) and Brussels, Belgium.
