The online event is free to attend, though fans will need to register for access through Volume. The stream arrives as anticipation continues to build around Sanctuary, which marks the band’s latest full-length release and another major chapter for the Grammy-winning artists. Evanescence has released two singles from the album thus far, "Afterlife," and "Who Will You Follow."
The announcement also comes ahead of an extensive run of North American, UK, and European tour dates scheduled throughout 2026, including appearances at major amphitheaters and festival stops such as Sick New World Texas 2026.
