Evanescence have announced a huge UK and European tour for 2026, with support from Poppy, Nova Twins and K.Flay. Find all the details below.

The US rock band are due to hit the road next autumn, marking their first full UK/European trek since their ‘World’s Collide’ live tour in 2022.

Kicking off with a performance at Leeds’ First Direct Bank Arena on September 8, the forthcoming run of dates also includes stops at Manchester’s Co-op Live (September 10), Birmingham’s Utilita Arena (11) and London’s The O2 (13).

From there, Evanescence will head to Europe for concerts in Brussels, Paris, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Berlin, Zurich, Barcelona, Lisbon and other cities throughout the rest of the month and into October.

They’ll be joined by special guest Poppy (UK/Europe), as well as openers Nova Twins (Europe only) and K.Flay (UK only).

The latter artist features on Evanescence’s latest single ‘Fight Like A Girl’, while Poppy appeared alongside frontwoman Amy Lee and Spiritbox‘s Courtney LaPlante on the collaborative 2025 track ‘End Of You’.

“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,” said frontwoman Amy Lee.

“We are taking all of that fire and energy and inspiration and building it into an epic 2026 for our fans.”

She continued: “Collaborating with K.Flay, Poppy, and Courtney Le Plante made me want to create a world where we could share stages together, and I’m thrilled we are going to make it happen! I can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on, and I can’t wait for this incredible tour.”

Tickets go on general sale at 10am local time this Friday (December 5) – you’ll be able to buy yours here. Alternatively, fans can access a pre-sale code by signing up here.

Evanescence has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1/£1/€1 from every ticket sold will support organisations providing humanitarian aid and medical relief to those in need around the world.
