Evanescence have announced they’re all set to return to New Zealand for a headline arena show at Spark Arena on Saturday 20 March 2027.

If you caught them opening for Metallica at Eden Park last year, you'll already know this isn't one to muck around with. Amy Lee and the band absolutely ripped, and now they're coming back to give Kiwi fans the full Evanescence experience without having to share the stage with anyone.

The tour celebrates everything from their monster debut album Fallen right through to their brand-new record Sanctuary. That means classics like ‘Bring Me to Life’, ‘Going Under’ and ‘My Immortal’ sitting alongside newer tracks including ‘Afterlife’ and ‘Who Will You Follow’.

The NZ date comes at the end of a huge Australian arena run, making Auckland the band's only Kiwi stop on the tour. 

There are plenty of presale options kicking off from Tuesday 9 June, including artist, Vodafone, Mastercard and album pre-order presales.

Live Nation's presale starts Thursday 11 June at 1pm and runs until Friday 12 June at 11pm.

General tickets go on sale Friday 12 June at 1pm local time.

You can get all your ticket and event info at Live Nation.
