Masterful. Visionary. Classic Genesis reimagined with virtuosity. Guitar legend Steve Hackett returns to The Glasshouse with his brand-new tour: Best of Genesis & Solo Gems. A hugely influential musician and former Genesis guitarist, Steve continues to captivate audiences with his virtuosic playing and timeless catalogue. This show brings together the very best of Genesis classics with highlights from his remarkable solo career, performed with his world-class band: Jonas Reingold (bass, guitar, backing vocals), Rob Townsend (saxophone, flutes, keyboards, backing vocals), Nad Sylvan (vocals), Lalle Larsson (keyboards), and Felix Lehrmann (drums). www.hackettsongs.com

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

Steve Hackett has 13 dates in the GoAllConcerts catalogue, starting in Glasgow in October 2026 and running to November 2027. The tour covers the United Kingdom, Italy and Spain, with a stop in Madrid. It makes sense for anyone who grew up with the Genesis of the 1970s, which Hackett left in 1977, and for those who follow his solo path, now at 34 studio albums on MusicBrainz. The Roaring Waves, from 2026, frames this run, and The Circus and the Nightwhale, from 2024, is not far behind. Our advice is to pick the venue first. The Royal Albert Hall in London, in October 2026, is the big night of the opening week. If you want a calmer city, Gateshead, York and Liverpool are on the list.
