Christian Gates is taking the I Believe In Ghosts Tour across Europe this October, an eight-city headline run built for the fans who found him first online. Every date comes with a full meet-and-greet VIP experience, and it is a run he has curated carefully, because he does it as an independent.
The dates
- Oct 04 — Amsterdam, Netherlands (Melkweg OZ)
- Oct 06 — Berlin, Germany (Prachtwerk)
- Oct 07 — Prague, Czechia (Rock Café)
- Oct 09 — Milan, Italy (Slaughter Club)
- Oct 11 — Paris, France (Petit Bain)
- Oct 13 — Glasgow, UK (Classic Grand)
- Oct 14 — Manchester, UK (Deaf Institute)
- Oct 15 — London, UK (The Garage)
Eleven nights, six countries, and a meet-and-greet at every stop.
Booked like an independent
There is no major-label machine behind this tour, and Gates has been open about what that means: every date has to earn its place.
I’m a pretty independent artist and there’s just not really any tour support over here, so I have to pick the shows really specifically to make sure they cover their own costs.Christian Gates, Rob Herrera interview
The result is a tight, intentional routing rather than a bloated one. Each of these cities is on the list because his audience there is real enough to fill the room, the same own-everything discipline behind how he runs his whole career. That he can headline eight European cities at all is a testament to how international his online base became, including a prior headline show at The Underworld in London.
The VIP experience
Every date carries the same VIP upgrade, designed to put fans in the room with the artist rather than just in the crowd:
- A meet and greet with Christian Gates
- Photo opportunities
- A signed poster
- A lanyard with badge
- A tote bag
- Early entry, one hour before doors
VIP packages are available now through the official tour page. It is one of two 2026 VIP runs on The Ring, alongside Dutch Melrose’s Heartbreak Hotel Tour.
