10/31/20251 min read

AVATAR announce their massive headline tour, set to sweep across Europe in 2026 — from the frozen landscapes of Scandinavia through the heart of the continent, including Poland. The Swedish outfit will unveil an all-new live spectacle, blending raw metal power with theatrical flair and a level of production unlike anything they’ve presented before.

“We are addicted to metal!” proclaims Sweden’s master of ceremonies, Johannes Eckerström. “Despite all the recognition we’ve received for our live performances, we still feel like we’re only getting started. This tour is meant to break every record and push far beyond anything we’ve done before. It’s not just about size — everything has to be better than ever. This is what we live for, and we promise you that!”

The journey begins in the summer, when AVATAR will join metal legends Iron Maiden for sixteen shows, bringing their dark carnival to arenas and stadiums across Europe. From there, the band will head to Mexico City to present their latest spectacular show at the massive ‘Noche De Brujas’ concert on Halloween, taking place just ahead of the iconic Día de los Muertos celebrations.

These performances will offer the first glimpse of AVATAR’s breathtaking new concert production ahead of their upcoming world tour, during which Johannes Eckerström will lead his musical warriors — John Alfredsson, Jonas Jarlsby, Henrik Sandelin, and Tim Öhrström — on a journey across the globe. With a setlist spanning both classic and new material, AVATAR will reveal themselves in an entirely new light, playing some of the biggest shows of their 25-year career — including a very special Valentine’s Day performance at one of London’s newest venues, The Exhibition, housed within a historic Grade II–listed building in White City.
