Korn Announces Six German Arena Shows as Part of 2026 Euro Tour

Nu-metal pioneers Korn are set to return to Germany in the fall of 2026 with a six-date arena run spanning Stuttgart, Munich, Cologne, Hamburg, Hanover and Berlin. The German leg forms a major part of the band's first full European and U.K. arena tour in over a decade, marking a significant return to the continent's biggest stages.

 
The Euro Tour 2026 officially kicks off on October 18 at Stuttgart's Hanns-Martin-Schleyer-Halle, followed by Munich's Olympiahalle on October 19 and Cologne's LANXESS arena on October 21. These opening three shows will feature support from Architects and Youth Code. After a brief hiatus from Germany, the tour resumes on November 11 at Hamburg's Barclays Arena, continuing to Hanover's ZAG Arena on November 13 and concluding the German run at Berlin's Uber Arena on November 14. For these final three northern dates, Korn will be joined by Architects and Pixel Grip, offering fans two distinct support lineups across the six shows.
 
Beyond Germany, the 19-date itinerary takes the band to major cities across France, the U.K., Ireland, the Netherlands, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Poland, Austria and Italy. Key international stops include Accor Arena in Paris (October 23), First Direct Arena in Leeds (October 26), Utilita Arena in Birmingham (October 28), Utilita Arena in Newcastle (October 30), AO Arena in Manchester (October 31), 3Arena in Dublin (November 2), The O2 in London (November 4), Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam and AFAS Dome in Antwerp.
 
Setlists are expected to draw heavily from Korn's classic nu-metal catalog, a sound defined by down-tuned groove riffs, hip-hop-infused rhythms and Jonathan Davis's signature vocal versatility. Streaming data underscores the enduring popularity of their late-1990s and early-2000s hits: "Freak On a Leash" has surpassed 820 million streams on Spotify, while "Coming Undone," "Falling Away From Me" and "Got the Life" each exceed 390 million plays. Alongside live staples like "Blind" and "Twisted Transistor," these tracks will form the backbone of the band's arena performances.
 
The Euro Tour 2026 marks Korn's most extensive European trek in years, with the Stuttgart show on October 18 serving as the confirmed opening night of the run.
