BABYMETAL 2026 Tour Announcement – US Tour Schedule
BABYMETAL are returning to North America in 2026, this time linking up with Halestorm for a co-headlining run that stretches through summer before their solo fall shows. The Japanese group will kick off on August 30th in San Diego, CA, continuing through October 3rd at Aftershock Festival in Sacramento, CA.
BABYMETAL is still riding the high of their fifth album, Metal Forth, which topped the charts when it came out last year. No, really, it reached No. 1 on Billboard’s World Albums chart, No. 2 on Top Rock & Alternative Albums, and No. 9 on the Billboard 200 — a first for the trio. Featuring singles like “Song 3” and “From Me to U” with Poppy, this record proves that they aren’t just teenage girls who know how to scream anymore…but full-fledged rock stars.
They can sing, they can dance, they can blend J-pop and modern metal better than any other group in the scene, and that’s what makes BABYMETAL such a must-see. As they celebrate the deluxe edition of Metal Forth, releasing June 26, 2026 via Capitol Records, they knew it was time to pay the US another visit…both with solo shows and their friends in Halestorm. And they’re guaranteed to put on a show unlike anything you’ve seen before.
BABYMETAL have always existed slightly outside of the traditional metal space, pulling in J-pop structure, choreography, and a level of precision that most bands don’t even attempt. Along with new singles, they’ll also perform classics like “Gimme Chocolate!!,” “Pa Pa Ya!!” and “Road of Resistence” in a way that metal bands twice their age could only dream of. Their vocals are pristine as the choreography speaks for itself….
Bringing in festival-ready hooks and heavier breakdowns made for bigger venues. 2026 will be the year of BABYMETAL, and you can see it yourself with verified resale tickets for the following dates.
