Devin Townsend announces Solo Tour 2026

Author Benedetta Baldin - 5.5.2026

Today is Devin Townsend‘s birthday, but it looks like he’s the one that’s making us a gift by announcing new shows for this year! Pre-sale: Thursday, May 7th at 10am BST. Sign up to the mailing list to get access: https://www.dvn.fm/signup General sale starts on Friday, May 8th at 10am BST.

After spending the past couple of years working through things at home and the logistics of it all, it now feels like time to step back out into the wild. I’m heading out at the end of the year for a run of one man performances, and I’m very excited about it. Twenty three shows in ten countries across Europe.

Expect something different. The set will change from night to night, but the idea is simple: a modern take on a one man band. Just me, the music, a stage full of weirdness, and the stories behind it all.

So what do you say? Do you want to spend some time together?
