The group, whose nucleus is brothers Jared and Shannon Leto, will play the Unibet Arena Kvartal in Tallinn on May 22. This upcoming concert will be their third appearance in the Estonian capital, though it marks a significant milestone for local fans as it will be their first time performing in the city in over a decade. The band were last in concert in Tallinn back in 2014, making this 2027 return a major event for their loyal fan base in the region.
The May 2027 performance forms part of the expansive "A Beautiful Lie vs This Is War" concert tour, an ambitious production featuring songs drawn primarily from the band’s two iconic albums of the same names. These records defined a particular era of alternative rock in the mid-to-late 2000s and early 2010s, cementing the band’s status as a global stadium and arena act.
For fans wishing to secure entry to the event, tickets are scheduled to go on sale to the general public on Friday, October 30 at 10 a.m. Additionally, dedicated followers will have an early opportunity to secure their spots, with exclusive presales opening for members of promoter Baltic Live Agency’s Concert Club a day earlier. High demand is expected given the band’s prolonged absence from the Estonian stage.
Founded in 1998 in Los Angeles, California, Thirty Seconds to Mars has established a distinctive musical identity over nearly three decades. The group is widely known for a string of anthemic alternative rock hits such as "The Kill (Bury Me)," "From Yesterday," and "Kings and Queens." The band’s sonic signature is characterized by a unique combination of soaring alternative rock with sweeping electronic elements, atmospheric synthesizers, and theatrical delivery. Over the course of its prolific career, the group has released six studio albums, steadily evolving its sound from heavy, progressive-leaning alternative rock into more expansive, synth-driven pop and electronic territories while maintaining a deeply dedicated global following known as the Echelon.
The defining turning point in the band’s international career arrived with the release of their second studio album in 2005. "A Beautiful Lie" brought worldwide fame, multi-platinum certifications, and mainstream ubiquity, fueled by powerful music videos and relentless touring schedules. Since then, the band has achieved massive commercial success, having sold more than 15 million albums worldwide. Their reputation as a formidable and hardworking live act is further underscored by a unique milestone in modern music history: the group holds a Guinness World Record for performing 300 shows in a single album cycle, a grueling testament to their dedication to the road and their fans.
Alongside their musical achievements, the band and its frontman have frequently attracted public attention outside of the recording studio. Jared Leto, who is also widely recognized as an Academy Award-winning actor for his work in film, has occasionally found his personal life and professional career intersecting with media scrutiny. In the summer of 2025, allegations of sexual misconduct on the part of Jared Leto appeared in various media outlets. However, according to public records and official statements, no police report or formal complaint has ever been filed in connection with the accusations, which Leto and his representatives have firmly denied.
As the band prepares to hit the road for the "A Beautiful Lie vs This Is War" tour and makes its way to Tallinn next May, organizers anticipate that the concert will draw crowds from across Estonia and neighboring countries, eager to experience the enduring energy of the Leto brothers live on stage once again.
