Epica have officially unveiled plans for their monumental 2026 world trek, The Omega Dominion Tour, a sweeping live spectacle that promises to push the boundaries of symphonic metal once again. Building on the philosophical depth and sonic power of their Omega era, the band is crafting a production that blends cinematic orchestration, thunderous riffs, and breathtaking visual storytelling. Early previews hint at a setlist that spans fan favorites alongside deeper cuts, all delivered with the theatrical intensity that has defined Epica’s global reputation.
The European leg ignites in Amsterdam on March 6, 2026, before storming through Berlin, Paris, Madrid, Milan, Prague, Warsaw, and London. From there, the band will cross the Atlantic for a North American run beginning in New York on April 18, 2026, with stops in Toronto, Chicago, Atlanta, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles, and Seattle. Each venue has been carefully selected to accommodate the band’s expanding stage production, rumored to feature a live choir, immersive LED architecture, and pyrotechnic elements designed to mirror the cosmic themes of Omega.
Summer will see Epica dominate major festivals and headline arenas across South America and Asia. Confirmed dates include São Paulo on June 12, 2026, Buenos Aires on June 14, 2026, Santiago on June 16, 2026, followed by Tokyo on July 3, 2026, Osaka on July 5, 2026, and Jakarta on July 8, 2026. The band has also teased special symphonic evenings in select cities, where local orchestras will join them on stage for an expanded, once-in-a-lifetime performance format.
With anticipation already surging across fan communities, The Omega Dominion Tour is shaping up to be one of the most ambitious metal tours of 2026, reaffirming Epica’s status as masters of grandeur and innovation. The tour is officially set to commence on March 6, 2026, marking the beginning of a new chapter in the band’s ever-evolving legacy and a global celebration of the sound, spirit, and philosophy that continue to define Epica’s universe.
