Santana announced three Germany shows for the Planet of Free Will Global Tour 2027 on 26 October 2026. The announcement names Mönchengladbach, Wiesbaden and Halle as July 2027 stops, giving the band three open-air dates in Germany.
Santana set three German cities for 2027
The German date announcement lists 10 July 2027 at SparkassenPark in Mönchengladbach, 14 July at Brita Arena in Wiesbaden and 25 July at Freilichtbühne Peißnitz in Halle (Saale). The three shows are the German section of the Planet of Free Will Global Tour 2027.
Santana’s official announcement places the Germany dates between shows in Switzerland and Italy. The route gives the act a clearly defined July run across three German cities rather than a single national appearance.
Santana’s Latin-rock catalogue frames the new dates
Santana emerged from San Francisco as a pioneering Afro-Latin-blues-rock group, with Carlos Santana’s guitar at the centre of its sound. The music combines rock with jazz, blues and Afro-Cuban rhythms, a blend that remains closely linked with the band’s name.
The catalogue includes the albums Santana, Abraxas, Supernatural, Santana IV and Africa Speaks. Its best-known songs include Black Magic Woman and Oye Como Va, while the group’s work with guest singers and musicians has extended its reach beyond a single style. The new tour title places that established musical identity alongside a forward-looking European itinerary.
Planet of Free Will extends through Europe in summer 2027
The European schedule begins at The O2 in London on 30 June 2027, followed by Accor Arena in Paris on 7 July and Festival St. Peter at Sunset Kestenholz in Switzerland on 8 July. After the German dates, Santana continue to Pordenone and Lucca in Italy, Burg Clam in Austria, Slavkov u Brna in the Czech Republic and Krakow in Poland.
The listed route then reaches Oslo on 28 July 2027 and Kaivopuisto Blues in Helsinki on 31 July. Alongside the three German venues, the itinerary connects arena shows, outdoor stages and a festival appearance within one European run.
