Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull have been among the most influential names in progressive rock for decades. Since its formation in the late 1960s, the band has developed its own sound, combining rock, folk and classical influences, with the 1968 debut album This Was marking the start of an impressive career. Ian Anderson -- songwriter, flautist, singer and the face of the band -- is known for his characteristic flute playing and energetic stage presence. He still tours worldwide with Jethro Tull, bringing music that has shaped generations of rock fans. An evening for lovers of progressive rock, craftsmanship and a repertoire spanning more than five decades.

What to know before you go

Check the door time listed by the official ticket seller. Plan to arrive at least 30 minutes early to clear security and reach your section.
Security check: most venues prohibit professional cameras, large bags and outside food. Check the venue's official policy before traveling.
Bring the same payment card or QR code you used at checkout. Some venues no longer print physical tickets — phone screen is enough.
Dress for the genre and the weather — outdoor shows can get cold after sunset. Comfortable shoes for standing-only sections.

The GoAllConcerts take

Jethro Tull has 16 dates listed between October 2026 and March 2027, across the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Turkey, Austria and Poland. You can see them in theatres such as the Concertgebouw de Vereeniging in Nijmegen or de Doelen in Rotterdam, and also in large rooms like the GETEC-Arena in Magdeburg. Our view is simple: it is worth going, because Ian Anderson still leads a band formed in Luton in 1967 and has three recent albums, The Zealot Gene, RökFlöte and Curious Ruminant. This tour suits anyone who wants progressive and folk rock with new and older material. When you buy, compare the city and the type of venue, since a theatre and an arena feel very different.
