The Swedish metal band AVATAR has announced several concert dates in the Nordic countries for early 2026 as part of their European tour.
“We are heavy addicts!” proclaims Eckerström. “For all the praise we’ve gotten for what we do on stage, we can’t shake the feeling that we have only just begun. Therefore, this tour is set to break every record and boundary of our past travels. I am not just talking about size. Everything must be better than ever. It’s what we live for, and what we promise.”
Here are the confirmed concert dates and locations:
• Sweden: February 5, 2026, at Fållan in Stockholm, and August 22, 2026, at the Göteborg Brinner festival in Gothenburg...
• Finland: February 7, 2026, at Kulttuuritalo in Helsinki.
• Norway: February 9, 2026, at Sentrum Scene in Oslo and June 7, 2026, at the Trondheim Rocks festival in Trondheim.
• Denmark: February 10, 2026, at Store VEGA in Copenhagen.
Tickets for these shows are available through official ticketing agents like Ticketmaster.se and Livenation.no.
The Swedish band released their tenth studio album "Don't Go In The Forest" earlier this year on Halloween.The metal circus, as they characterise themselves will be on tour all around Europe and UK early on 2026 (February/March), showcasing new and old tracks, promising their biggest promotion yet.
Some of Johannes Eckerström 's (siner of the band) words about the meaning of the album title "Don't Go In The Forest", taken from his interview on www.grimmgent.com
“If you’re a little metal kid and someone says, ‘Don’t go there,’ you immediately go there,” he laughs. To him, the forest is both metaphor and aesthetic, a Lynchian landscape where curiosity leads to revelation. “You walk through the dark, see lights between the trees, and suddenly there’s a circus tent. You go inside — and that’s the Avatar world.”
