The Mission « Gods Own Medicine 40th Anniversary Shows »

The Mission mark 40 years of their debut with a four-night stand at O2 Forum Kentish Town, London, from Wednesday 4 to Saturday 7 November 2026. Formed by Wayne Hussey and Craig Adams after The Sisters of Mercy, the band forged a sound where gothic rock meets post-punk and big melodic choruses. This series brings that history into focus and digs deep into the catalogue.

Night by night: Wednesday 4, God's Own Medicine played in full, with B-sides. Thursday 5, a best-of drawing from The First Chapter, Children, Grains of Sand, Neverland, Aura and The Brightest Light. Friday 6, another best-of focused on God's Own Medicine, Carved in Sand, Masque, Blue, God Is a Bullet and Another Fall from Grace. Saturday 7 closes with Kith and Kin; by request.

Expect sweeping guitars, a dark yet tuneful edge and songs that trace the band's path from the mid-80s to more recent albums. Whether you're here for the debut in full or the catalogue deep cuts, The Mission bring the material back to the stage across four focused sets, with the final night landing on Saturday 7 November 2026 at O2 Forum Kentish Town.
