Toto have announced a UK and European tour to celebrate their 40th anniversary.
Steve Lukather, David Paich, Steve Porcaro and Joseph Williams will hit the road under the 40 Trips Around The Sun Tour which will take place throughout February, March and April 2018.
In addition, Toto will release a new greatest hit package in February featuring remastered hits and brand new tracks.
Lukather says: “Myself, David, Steve and Joseph are humbled and thrilled at the long-lasting success of the band.
“This 40th anniversary tour is going to be a special one for us and all of the fans that come out. On top of all that, it’s really exciting to be working with Sony Music again. We’ve spent a lot of time this year working on new music and re-mastering the older tracks.”
Tickets will go on sale from 9am on June 20 via Live Nation.
Speaking in early February, Lukather confirmed that the band would embark on a large-scale tour to celebrate their milestone.
He said: “We’re working on new material for our 40th anniversary. It’s pretty good. We’re making new music and going to be on the road with Toto. We’re going to do a 40th anniversary tour for two years. It’s going to be busy for the next few years.”
Toto’s last album was 2015’s Toto XIV.
