Evanescence officially launched their 2026 North American tour on Thursday night, June 11, delivering a powerhouse opening performance at the iTHINK Financial Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach, Florida. The concert marked the beginning of an extensive global touring cycle for the band, and fan-filmed footage of the monumental set has already surfaced online. You can see it down below.
The opening night performance leaned heavily into unexpected selections, featuring an unprecedented ten live debuts that caught long-time fans completely by surprise. According to Setlist.fm, Evanescence opened the evening with the back-to-back live debuts of “Sanctuary” and “Tell Me When You’ve Had Enough“. Throughout the show, the band paired this new material with their radio hits, including “Going Under“, “Lithium“, “Call Me When You’re Sober“, and the iconic “Bring Me To Life“.
Other tracks making their first-ever live appearances included “Rapture“, “Like You“, “Self Destruct“, “Calm Down“, “Beautiful Lie“, “Forever Without You“, “About Us“, and the final encore track, “Wide Open Heart“. A standout collaborative highlight of the night occurred during the performance of “Fight Like A Girl“, where the band welcomed touring partners Courtney LaPlante of Spiritbox and the Nova Twins to share the stage.
The North American leg of the tour will continue hitting major markets over the next several weeks before wrapping up on August 2 at the Pine Knob Music Theatre in Clarkston, Michigan. Following a short break, Evanescence will cross the Atlantic for a comprehensive European and UK run spanning early September through early October. The band will then return to the United States for a special, one-off headline performance at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado, on October 26.
The support roster varies by region. The summer North American dates feature direct support from Spiritbox and the Nova Twins. The subsequent European dates will introduce alternative pop-metal act Poppy as a special guest, with the Nova Twins appearing on all non-UK dates. Singer-songwriter K.Flay, who is featured on Evanescence‘s “Fight Like A Girl” single, is scheduled to open the UK arena shows and will also rejoin the band for the Red Rocks finale.
