On April 30, 2022 The Smashing Pumpkins performed at the annual Beale Street Music Festival as the first date of 2022's Rock Invasion 2 tour. The band was scheduled to perform at the 2020 festival as part of the original Rock Invasion 2 tour, but it along with the whole tour was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
