After selling out London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall in less than three days – EPICA is thrilled to announce ‘The Symphonic Synergy’ European Tour.

The band will take a full orchestra and choir to some of Europe’s most spectacular venues. Fans in 10 countries will be able to experience this extraordinary production in celebration of EPICA’s 25th anniversary.

‘The Symphonic Synergy’ originated in 2024, when EPICA performed with a full orchestra and choir in Amsterdam and Mexico City, captivating more than 30,000 fans over four nights.

This spectacular show now returns. Same concept, but re-imagined and adapted to celebrate 25 years of EPICA. With only 11 European dates announced, ‘The Symphonic Synergy’ will be among the most exclusive and unmissable events of EPICA’s existence – offering their fans a rare opportunity to experience the band’s music in its most powerful and cinematic form.

EPICA – UPCOMING TOUR DATES

About EPICA:

EPICA’s 25-year journey is a masterclass in conceptual depth, technical brilliance, and unyielding sonic evolution.

The world of symphonic metal thrives on grand concepts and uncompromising standards, but few bands have elevated this genre to such momentous creative heights as EPICA. Formed in the Netherlands in 2002, these perennially dynamic masters of sonic opulence swiftly grabbed the world’s attention with their 2003 debut album The Phantom Agony. Right from the start, EPICA struck a sublime balance between sweeping orchestral grandeur and progressive heavy metal grit.

Now for a quarter of a century, the Dutch luminaries have continually refined their signature sound. The core dynamic remains anchored by Simone Simons’ soaring, versatile lead vocals, with contrast from Mark Jansen’s guttural growls. Guitars from Isaac Delahaye deliver a barrage of scything, technical riffs, while keyboard maestro Coen Janssen weaves intricate, cinematic symphonic arrangements around them. Driving the music forward is the powerhouse rhythm section of drummer Ariën van Weesenbeek – known for his relentless precision – and bassist Rob van der Loo, who grounds the band’s complexity with a deep, authoritative low end.

Rather than resting on their laurels, EPICA continue to push sonic boundaries, delivering grand storytelling and relentless energy. Celebrating 25 years of music, memory, and monumental sound, the band stands proudly at the peak of their craft – honouring their past while stepping boldly into the future.
