Hungarian band Thy Catafalque has announced a headlining tour in Europe in early 2026.
We are excited to present you our second headlining tour in Europe, starting off at Dürer Kert in Budapest on March 14, 2026. We will be accompanied by Bong-Ra and Toward The Throne on the French dates.
Please note this is NOT the full list of shows, we are still working on missing dates and an update will be due. Any help from you in regards of available and interested venues is highly appreciated.
We’ll release more details about the Budapest shows tomorrow.
Stay tuned!

Tamás Kátai has a vision that extends beyond borders and boundaries. Even during its infancy, Thy Catafalque had already outgrown the rather rigid guidelines of black metal. Though only intended for the studio, over the past 20 years, his recording project has evolved into a lively collaboration. With each album, Thy Catafalque has pushed the envelope of extreme metal a step further, bringing the world’s most vile art form into conversation with the avant-garde.
Thy Catafalque’s twelfth album is even more expansive, but “XII: A gyönyörű álmok ezután jönnek” ties both to its mastermind’s past and the history of his native Hungary. “For this album, I felt it was time to move in a different direction, whatever that direction might be”, Kátai says, “but XII still possesses the dreaminess that I’ve always associated with Thy Catafalque”.
