==50th anniversary plans==
On 14 October 2024, Robert Smith announced plans for retiring in 2029 following the 50th anniversary of ''Three Imaginary Boys''. “I’m 70 in 2029, and that’s the 50th anniversary of the first Cure album [''Three Imaginary Boys'']. If I make it that far, that’s it. In the intervening time, I’d like to include playing concerts as part of the overall plan of what we’re going to do. I’ve loved it; the last 10 years of playing shows have been the best 10 years of being in the band. It pisses all over the other 30-odd years! It’s been great.”<ref>{{cite web |last1=Fu|first1=Eddie |title=The Cure Will Retire After 50th Anniversary of Debut Album in 2029 |url=https://consequence.net/2024/10/the-cure-retire-50th-anniversary/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR26mSJpfB9eMjZKTYZew_NjONt5WOvLlsm1fhc9_DwN9k9-QX7rq1BZYsk_aem_oR82u4DJyX0SlF_x-rX7iA |website=Consequence |access-date=14 October 2024 |date=14 October 2024}}</ref>
