German heavy metal band Primal Fear has revealed the schedule for its 2026 Domination tour, featuring special guest Ronnie Romero. The tour kicks off in the UK and spans multiple European countries before concluding in Brazil. This follows the release of the band's 15th studio album, also titled Domination.
Primal Fear, a staple in the heavy and power metal scene since its formation in 1997, has announced dates for its upcoming Domination tour in 2026. The tour supports the band's latest album, 'Domination', their 15th studio release, which came after a recent lineup change that brought guitarist Thalìa Bellezecca and drummer André Hilgers into the fold.
The album was produced by Sinner and co-produced by vocalist Ralf Scheepers and guitarist Magnus Karlsson. It was mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen at Hansen Studios in Ribe, Denmark. Karlsson, who has rejoined the live touring lineup, expressed enthusiasm: “I can’t wait to hit the stage with Primal Fear again! It’s going to be an incredible ride! We’re going to create something truly special together, both live and in the studio, and I’m so grateful to share this journey with all you metalheads! Metal is forever!”
Scheepers added about the recording process: “I haven’t felt as great in a long time as I did singing some of the new songs!” The band aims to build on the success of their previous album, 'Code Red', which achieved the highest chart positions in Primal Fear's history.
The tour itinerary begins on March 11, 2026, at O2 Academy Islington in London, United Kingdom, followed by KK’s Steel Mill in Wolverhampton on March 12. It continues through Germany, including the Metal Diver Festival in Marsberg on March 14-15 and Vaudeville E.V. Club in Lindau on March 15.
