All-female rock sensation BAND-MAID has confirmed their first solo world tour for 2026, set to kick off in Hong Kong this March. The BAND-MAID WORLD TOUR 2026 includes performances across Hong Kong, Japan, Europe, and the UK. North America dates, slated for October, will be officially announced at a later date.

The group concludes the tour with a two-night residency at Tokyo’s Nippon Budokan, a long-awaited dream for fans following BAND-MAID’s cancelled performances in 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

After the tour finale, the band will take a short hiatus from live performances. Each member will continue to produce music until their planned return for BAND-MAID’s 15th anniversary in 2028.

BAND-MAID shared a collective statement alongside the tour’s announcement:

On the upcoming “BAND-MAID WORLD TOUR 2026”, we are channeling all of our deep gratitude for your incredibly warm support into every single performance. We are sincerely looking forward to meeting all of you in various parts of the world.

In addition to the tour news, the live video of Present Perfect from the sold-out BAND-MAID TOUR 2025 finale at Tokyo Garden Theater has been released. Present Perfect was the final song of the two-hour concert and was performed immediately after the BAND-MAID WORLD TOUR 2026 announcement. The footage captures a strong performance concluding with vocalist SAIKI calling out to the audience, “Keep following us next year too!”, a line that takes on added significance as the full scope of their global plan is revealed.
