The German metal institution Helloween is launching into the next chapter of their monumental 40 Years Anniversary Tour with full force. After a triumphant 2025 and a short, well-deserved break, the band will return to international stages in April 2026.
Last year, Helloween released their latest studio album, “Giants & Monsters”—the second album from the legendary Pumpkins United lineup— and received widespread acclaim from fans and critics around the world. The album seamlessly continues the band’s success story and solidifies their status as one of the most influential forces in international heavy metal.
In October, a highly successful arena tour across Europe followed: sold-out venues, ecstatic fans, and rave reviews of an unparalleled anniversary show impressively underscored the band’s enduring appeal – four decades after their formation.
Now the journey continues: starting in April, four weeks in North America are on the schedule, followed by concerts in Japan. In the summer, Helloween will rock the major festival stages of Europe before the tour then heads to Latin America, one of the band’s strongest markets, where they will sell out some of the continent´s largest arenas.
As a special “thank you” to their loyal fans, the band will release a live clip of “Twilight of the Gods” on April 6, capturing the electrifying atmosphere of their recent shows and offering a taste of what the coming months have in store.
Forty years of band history, countless classics, and a new album that impressively demonstrates that Helloween are more creative and powerful than ever – the “40 Years Anniversary Tour” is entering its next phase!
