The John Lydon-fronted group will hit the road for their 'The Public Image is Rotten: UK/Europe & Japan Tour', starting in Bristol, south west England, on May 30.
The group wrote on their official Twitter account: "To celebrate their 40th Anniversary, PiL are pleased to announce The Public Image is Rotten UK/Europe & Japan Tour.(sic)"
PiL will play in the likes of Newcastle, Manchester, Cardiff, Nottingham and Glasgow in the UK, and they also have several European dates lined up with gigs scheduled for Holland, Poland and Belgium, among other countries, over the summer.
It's not yet known when they will hit the road in Japan, but the 'Love Song' hitmakers confirmed they will head to the East Asian country at some point this year.
What's more, they will also be announcing a "very special" London show at some point, and will release a box set and documentary to further celebrate their 40th anniversary.
The group said on their official website: "Further PiL activity includes the release of a career-spanning box set and a documentary of the same name, the latter of which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York and then had its European premiere at London's Raindance Festival in 2017. Directed by Tabbert Fiiller, it will be released later this year in select cinemas.
"The tour also includes an as yet to be announced very special London date. Japanese dates to be confirmed soon along with some further UK/European dates.
"Ticket pre-sale will be tomorrow, Friday, February 23rd at 11am with general sale following on Monday, February 26th 11am."
