Dutch band Epica have announced the first official concert of their 25th anniversary celebrations, scheduled for January 29, 2027 at the historic Royal Theater Carré in Amsterdam.
El show marcará el inicio de una serie de presentaciones especiales a nivel global con las que el grupo celebrará un cuarto de siglo de actividad. En un mensaje dirigido a sus seguidores, la banda destacó el carácter simbólico de este aniversario, señalando que el recorrido de 25 años “se siente irreal” y que el proyecto ha crecido mucho más allá de lo que imaginaron en sus inicios, reconociendo el papel central del público en ese proceso.
The choice of venue plays a central role in the concept. Opened in 1887, the Royal Theater Carré is one of Amsterdam’s most iconic venues, known for its historic architecture and intimate setting. According to the band, the concert will bring together past, present and future in a format that differs from their traditional live shows, offering a more immersive and close-range experience.
This event will serve as the starting point for a broader series of anniversary shows planned throughout 2027. While full tour details have yet to be revealed, the band is expected to present unique formats and curated setlists tailored to the occasion.
Tickets for the Amsterdam performance will go on sale this Wednesday at 10:00 CEST, with estimated prices ranging between €60 and €80 depending on seating.
Since forming in 2002, Epica have established themselves as one of the leading acts in modern symphonic metal, known for blending orchestral elements, operatic vocals and metal structures. Their catalog reflects a balance between technical composition and global appeal.
