The Subways live in Jena: Indie-Rock at F-Haus

British indie-rock band The Subways are heading to Thuringia this autumn, set to rock the stage at the F-Haus in Jena on Sunday, October 18, 2026. Fans can look forward to an electrifying live show packed with old classics and newer hits.

Indie-Rock icons return to the Saale city

For over two decades, The Subways have been a staple of the European indie and garage-rock scene. Formed in the early 2000s in Welwyn Garden City, England, by brothers Billy Lunn (vocals, guitar) and Josh Morgan (drums) alongside bassist Charlotte Cooper, the band achieved international fame with their 2005 debut album, “Young for Eternity.” Their single “Rock & Roll Queen” became a global indie-rock anthem and remains a must-have on any well-curated rock playlist. The Jena audience can look forward to a charismatic reunion with the band this October.

High-energy live performance at F-Haus Jena

The trio, bolstered in recent years by drummer Camille Phillips, is infamous for their sweat-drenched and uncompromising live shows. The Subways’ performances thrive on the boundless dynamic between frontman Billy Lunn and bassist Charlotte Cooper, who is known for climbing stage structures and whipping the crowd into a frenzy. The program for the evening at the F-Haus will feature both classics from their early albums and more recent tracks that blend their signature raw punk-rock spirit with catchy melodies.

The perfect setting at the Jena F-Haus

Important details for the Sunday concert

The concert on Sunday, October 18, 2026, is scheduled for an early start at 5:00 PM. This makes the event particularly attractive for visitors traveling from out of town who wish to catch public transport home after the show. Tickets for this musical highlight are priced at 41.15 euros in advance. Due to the limited capacity of the F-Haus, it is recommended to secure your tickets early, as The Subways’ concerts in intimate venues tend to sell out quickly.
