Evanescence return to European arenas in 2026 with a new headline tour. According to a listing on Songkick, the band have confirmed multiple dates across Germany, the UK and other territories for spring and early summer 2026Evanescence tour dates on Songkick.

New European dates for 2026

The 2026 run includes stops in major German cities such as Berlin, Munich and Hamburg, alongside London and Manchester in the UK, with venues in the arena category across the route. This keeps Evanescence firmly positioned as a mid-to-large scale live act in Europe.

Beyond Germany and the UK, the itinerary features shows in France, Italy and Spain, underlining their continued reach across mainland Europe. For U.S. fans, these dates signal that the band remain tour-active and may yet extend the run across the Atlantic.

How U.S. fans fit into the picture

At this stage, the 2026 schedule published on Songkick focuses on European cities, with no North American dates listed. That means U.S. listeners will have to travel if they want to catch the band on this particular run.

Evanescence have a strong touring history in the United States, having previously headlined venues from Los Angeles to New York and appearing at festivals such as Rock on the Range and Ozzfest. In that context, a future U.S. leg attached to the 2026 activity remains a realistic option if demand and logistics align.
