Evanescence is officially returning to the global stage. On December 1, Amy Lee and the band announced their first world tour in four years, marking a major moment for one of rock’s most enduring acts. The 2026 run celebrates 25 years of Evanescence, arriving after a landmark year that saw the group perform stadium shows supporting Metallica, and release new singles including “Fight Like a Girl” and “Afterlife.” For longtime fans, the announcement confirms what recent activity had hinted: a full-scale new era is underway.
The 2026 World Tour launches June 11 in North America before continuing across the United States and Canada through August. The band then heads to the United Kingdom and Europe from September through late October, performing a mix of arenas and major festival venues. This marks Evanescence’s most extensive routing since their 2020–2022 cycle and arrives amid growing anticipation for their next studio album, which the band revealed is already on the way.
In keeping with Evanescence’s long-standing commitment to uplifting women in rock, the support lineup is packed with powerhouse female-fronted acts. Spiritbox, led by Courtney LaPlante, joins the North American dates. They are joined by Nova Twins, the punk-grime duo whose explosive live shows have earned acclaim across the UK and beyond. The band also teased rotating appearances from Poppy and K.Flay, both of whom have recently collaborated with Amy Lee.
Evanescence shared the announcement with the message: “Here’s the news — three epic tours next year. Next summer we will be playing across North America with Spiritbox and Nova Twins, then heading to the UK with Poppy and K.Flay, then with Poppy and Nova Twins through Europe. We are thrilled to be bringing out such a variety of our favorite artists and can’t wait to get onstage with them (and an album of new music to play, coming soon)!” The band also confirmed that presale begins tomorrow (Dec. 2) at 12 p.m. local time, followed by a general on-sale this Friday.
