The ultimate metal dream team is hitting Spain in 2026 for one of the most anticipated tours of the year.
Symphonic metal pioneers Epica and modern metal powerhouse Amaranthe are joining forces for their massive “Arcane Dimensions” tour.
In January 2026, the co-headlining trek hits Barcelona and Madrid (brought to you by Madness Live!), and they aren’t coming alone. Joining the fray is the unstoppable Charlotte Wessels, former frontwoman of Delain.
Epica will be presenting their new album: “Aspiral”
Led by the incomparable Simone Simons, Epica will be using this run to showcase their brand-new record “Aspiral” (Nuclear Blast Records).
After a string of sold-out symphonic shows and crushing it as special guests for Metallica in 2023, the Dutch legends are back to dazzle us with a devastating show packed with symphonic metal highlights.
Expect a masterclass in storytelling and pure sonic grandeur.
Amaranthe will be bringing the heat with “The Catalyst”
Swedish juggernauts Amaranthe are bringing their signature, catchy fusion of extreme metal, industrial nu-metal, and high-octane pop-rock.
The band will delve deep into their seven-studio-album catalog, featuring gems from their 2024 masterpiece, “The Catalyst” (Nuclear Blast Records).
Having seen them live twice, I can confirm that Amaranthe is one of the most exciting bands on the planet right now, fueled by the killer vocal triple-threat of Elize Ryd, Nils Molin, and Mikael Sehlin.
A very special guest: Charlotte Wessels
To make this lineup even more legendary, the tour features the one and only Charlotte Wessels.
The former Delain vocalist will be performing tracks from her new solo debut, “The Obsession”, rounding out a bill that is quite frankly unbeatable.
A female-fronted metal trinity in Madrid and Barcelona
This triple-threat of female-fronted metal is an absolute must-watch for any metalhead. Mark your calendars.
Catch them live at Barcelona’s Razzmatazz 1 on January 30, before they head to La Riviera in Madrid on the 31st.
Head over to the Madness Live! website to grab your tickets before they vanish.
Are you ready to witness this metal trinity in action? See you in the pit!
