In a stunning announcement that sent shockwaves through the music world, Italian rock sensation Mรฅneskin revealed that their 2026 world tour will officially be their farewell. Titled โOne Last Ride,โ the tour is set to close out more than a decade of global dominance, audacious performances, and a career that redefined rock music for a new generation.
The bandโcomprised of frontman Damiano David, bassist Victoria De Angelis, guitarist Thomas Raggi, and drummer Ethan Torchioโbroke the news during a live-streamed press event in Rome on Sunday evening. Standing on a minimalist stage lit by golden spotlights, Damiano delivered the words that fans had long feared: โThis is not the end of us as people, but it is the end of us as Mรฅneskin. Weโve lived a lifetime in these years, and now we want to close this chapter the way it deservesโloud, bold, and unforgettable.โ
A Decade of Defiance
Since their meteoric rise after winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 2021 with โZitti e Buoni,โ Mรฅneskin have been at the forefront of reviving rock music in the mainstream. From sold-out stadiums in Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Rio de Janeiro, to topping global charts with hits like โBegginโโ and โSupermodel,โ the group became cultural icons, celebrated for their fearless style and unapologetic authenticity.
Critics and fans alike credit the band with reintroducing the grit, energy, and spectacle of classic rock to Gen Z audiences, while pushing boundaries of gender, fashion, and performance art. Their influence stretched far beyond music, sparking conversations on identity, freedom, and the role of art in challenging conventions.
The Farewell Tour
The โOne Last Rideโ tour will span five continents, beginning in Milan on March 12, 2026, before making stops in major cities including London, Paris, Berlin, New York, Los Angeles, Sydney, Sรฃo Paulo, Johannesburg, and Tokyo. The final show is scheduled for December 18, 2026, in Romeโs Stadio Olimpicoโfittingly bringing their journey full circle in the city where it all began.
Tickets are expected to sell out within minutes when they go on sale next month, with early presales for fan club members opening on October 1, 2025. Industry insiders are already predicting one of the fastest-selling tours in history, rivaling farewell runs by legendary acts such as Elton John and KISS.
Fans React
Within minutes of the announcement, social media exploded with an outpouring of emotions. Hashtags like #OneLastRide and #GrazieMรฅneskin trended worldwide, as fans shared personal stories of how the bandโs music inspired them. Many expressed heartbreak but also gratitude for the opportunity to celebrate the bandโs legacy one last time.
โDevastated but so grateful,โ wrote one fan on X (formerly Twitter). โThey gave us music that will never die. 2026 will be the year of Mรฅneskin.โ
Whatโs Next for the Band Members?
While the group made clear that Mรฅneskin as a band is ending, all four members hinted at future creative projects. Victoria teased plans to dive deeper into music production, Ethan expressed interest in experimental soundscapes, and Thomas revealed ambitions to compose for film. Damiano, always the enigmatic frontman, simply smiled and said, โIโm not disappearing. Letโs just say I have a lot left to scream.โ
Their collective decision to part ways, according to insiders, comes not from conflict but from a shared sense that theyโve achieved what they set out to doโand more. โWe wanted to show that rock was alive,โ Victoria explained during the announcement. โAnd we did.โ
A Legacy Secured
Whether remembered for their electrifying live shows, bold fashion choices, or their ability to push rock music into the future while honoring its past, Mรฅneskin leaves behind a legacy few bands achieve in such a short time. The โOne Last Rideโ tour promises to be more than just concerts; it will be a global celebration of rebellion, freedom, and the unifying power of music.
As Damiano concluded during the announcement, โLegends never really endโthey echo. And Mรฅneskin will always echo.โ
With dates and cities now revealed, fans across the world are preparing for one final chance to witness the Italian quartet in action. If history is any indication, โOne Last Rideโ wonโt just be a farewellโit will be the rock event of the decade.
