Evanescence has confirmed a major UK and European tour for 2026, featuring support from acclaimed artists Poppy, Nova Twins, and K.Flay. This marks the band’s first extensive tour across the UK and Europe since their successful “World’s Collide” tour in 2022.
The highly anticipated tour will launch on September 8, 2026, at Leeds’ First Direct Bank Arena. Following this, Evanescence will perform in several key cities, including Manchester on September 10, Birmingham on September 11, and London at The O2 on September 13. The group will then take their performances to Europe, with concerts planned in cities such as Brussels, Paris, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Berlin, Zurich, and Barcelona throughout September and into October.
Evanescence’s frontwoman, Amy Lee, expressed her excitement about the upcoming tour, stating, “This year has been so inspiring in so many ways, creating so much new music, playing some bucket-list shows and working with so many artists that give us life.” She emphasized the energy and creativity that has fueled their recent work and collaboration, stating, “We are taking all of that fire and energy and inspiration and building it into an epic 2026 for our fans.”
In addition to Poppy, who will join the band for the entirety of the UK and European leg, Nova Twins will open for Evanescence in Europe only, while K.Flay will support the band during UK shows. Notably, K.Flay features on Evanescence’s latest single, “Fight Like A Girl,” while Poppy collaborated with Lee and Spiritbox’s Courtney LaPlante on their track “End Of You,” released in 2025.
Tickets for the tour will be available to the public starting at 10:00 AM local time on December 5, 2025. Fans can also participate in an artist pre-sale at the same time the day prior, on December 2.
