Despite being based just 93 miles south of Milwaukee in Chicago, the Smashing Pumpkins haven't played Brew City since 2012.

That will change this fall.

The '90s alt-rock titans have announced a fall tour that stops at Fiserv Forum during Halloween season, on Oct. 30, with Jane's Addiction, another seminal act of that era, opening. Metal artist Poppy is also playing the Milwaukee show.

It also will be the first Milwaukee show since guitarist James Iha returned to the Smashing Pumpkins in 2018. Billy Corgan has always led the band, and drummer Jimmy Chamberlain has largely been part of the fold across the decades, although original bassist D'arcy Wretzky is still not part of the lineup.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday at the box office and ticketmaster.com, with presales beginning at 10 a.m. Thursday. Prices have yet to be announced.
