Five-piece rock band BAND-MAID will embark on a 2026 world tour, and Europe will not be left out. The tour will kick off in Hong Kong on 20 May, and in July the quintet will arrive in Europe for five performances in Germany, France and the United Kingdom. It has been a while since BAND-MAID toured Europe; the last time was in 2019. The show in London sold out quickly, resulting in the show being moved to a larger venue.

In October, Miku, Saiki, Kanami, Akane and Misa will head to North America for performances, although the specifics have not yet been announced. The finale of BAND-MAID’s world tour will take place in November at Nippon Budokan. After that, the band members will take a break from performances until 2028, when they will celebrate their 15th anniversary. BAND-MAID will use this break to gain new inspiration and work on new music. Their most latest release was an EP, titled SCOOOOOP, which was released in October 2025.

Friday 5 June 2026: Batschkapp – Frankfurt, Germany
Saturday 6 June 2026: Technikum – Munich, Germany
