Two sold-out nights at the Pula Arena in August confirm the huge interest of the audience, and for all those who were unable to secure tickets, the closest opportunity to experience Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds will be on August 7th at Belgrade’s Lower Kalemegdan
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds will hold two sold-out concerts at the Pula Arena this summer. After the first announced date, August 5th, sold out in just five days from the start of sales in October last year, due to great interest, an additional concert was opened on August 4th, which has just sold out. The audience in Pula can therefore expect two exceptional nights that will once again confirm why Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds are one of the most important and exciting bands in contemporary music. For all those who were unable to secure tickets, the closest opportunity to experience Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds will be on August 7th at Belgrade’s Lower Kalemegdan.
The news of the sold-out concerts comes during the European leg of the current The Wild God Tour, which kicked off in June with a spectacular concert at Malahide Castle near Dublin. In front of tens of thousands of visitors, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds performed an impressive 24-song set list spanning more than four decades of their work – from “From Her to Eternity”, “Tupelo”, “Red Right Hand” and “Into My Arms” to songs from their current album Wild God.
Initial media reactions were unanimous. The Irish Times gave the concert five stars, noting that “the emotional range of this performance is extraordinary” and that “Cave is electrifying from start to finish”. Hot Press calls him “arguably the most dynamic frontman in rock’n’roll today”, while The Bad Seeds conclude that they are “probably the best live band in the world at the moment”. The Wild God Tour is the continuation of one of the most successful tours in the band’s rich career. After selling out venues across Europe, the United Kingdom, North America, Australia and New Zealand, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds return to major European open-air stages and festivals this summer with a repertoire spanning more than four decades of creativity, including songs from the acclaimed album Wild God.
Over the course of an impressive career, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have released 18 studio albums, along with a number of live and compilation releases, solidifying their status as one of the most influential bands in contemporary music. Their concerts are known for their unique combination of raw energy, emotional intensity and exceptional connection with the audience, which is why audiences and critics have considered them among the best concert bands in the world for decades.
The European tour will feature Nick Cave along with Warren Ellis, Colin Greenwood, Jim Sclavunos, George Vjestica, Larry Mullins and Carly Paradis. After Ireland, the tour continues through Germany, Denmark, the Czech Republic, Austria, Greece, Italy, Belgium, Portugal, France, the United Kingdom, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Norway and Lithuania, before concluding at the end of August at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
The two dates in Pula will be a unique opportunity to experience the legendary band and their concerts, known for their intimacy and monumentality, in a space perfect for such music – the unique Pula Arena. Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds concerts in this ancient amphitheater are considered one of the most anticipated music events of the summer of 2026 in the region.
