Evanescence UK Tour Dates, Tickets and Support Acts
Evanescence's 2026 World Tour reaches the UK for four shows, kicking off in Leeds on Tuesday 8 September before wrapping up in London on Sunday 13 September. Poppy and K-Flay support at all four UK dates.
Tuesday 8 September — First Direct Bank Arena, Leeds
Thursday 10 September — Co-op Live, Manchester
Friday 11 September — Utilita Arena, Birmingham
Sunday 13 September — The O2, London
Tickets went on general sale from 5 December 2025 following a Live Nation presale window. Birmingham and London are now sold out, though resale and official ticket exchanges may still have availability — Leeds and Manchester are the best bets if you're still looking for tickets. If you're buying resale, stick to official platforms like Ticketmaster's fan-to-fan exchange or Twickets rather than unofficial resellers, to avoid duplicate or invalid tickets on the night.
Leeds — First Direct Bank Arena, Tuesday 8 September
Book parking near First Direct Bank Arena
The tour opens at First Direct Bank Arena on Claypit Lane, in the Arena Quarter at the edge of Leeds city centre.
Driving: Use postcode LS2 8BY for sat nav. The arena doesn't have its own car park, but there are over 7,500 parking spaces within a 15-minute walk — book ahead on JustPark to lock one in rather than hunting for a space after dark.
By train: Leeds City Station on New Station Street is about a 15-minute walk from the arena, with regular trains from across the region.
Book ahead: With no dedicated arena car park, spaces near Merrion Way and Woodhouse Lane are always in demand on show nights — reserve early to lock in a spot close to the entrance.
Manchester — Co-op Live, Thursday 10 September
Co-op Live sits on the Etihad Campus in east Manchester, the UK's largest indoor arena.
Driving: Use postcode M11 3ER or M11 3DU for sat nav. Book parking before you travel — the Etihad Campus gets busy fast on event nights.
By train and tram: Manchester Piccadilly is the most convenient mainline station, around 1.5 miles from the venue, with a Metrolink tram from Piccadilly to the Etihad Campus stop taking around 8 minutes. Ashburys Station is a 10-minute walk to the Etihad Campus if you're after a quieter route in.
Book ahead: JustPark spaces around the Etihad Campus are within walking distance of the arena and can be booked for the whole evening.
Birmingham — Utilita Arena, Friday 11 September
Book parking near Utilita Arena Birmingham
Utilita Arena sits in the heart of Birmingham city centre, a short walk from four mainline stations.
Driving: Use postcode B1 2AA for sat nav. Note that the arena and its surrounding car parks fall within Birmingham's Clean Air Zone, so check your vehicle's eligibility before you travel.
By train: Birmingham New Street, Moor Street, Snow Hill and Five Ways stations are all a short walk from the arena, roughly 10–20 minutes on foot.
Book ahead: With this show sold out, expect the surrounding streets to be busy well before doors — booking a space near New Street or Five Ways in advance avoids the last-minute scramble.
London — The O2, Sunday 13 September
The tour closes at The O2 on the Greenwich Peninsula, one of the UK's best-connected arenas.
Driving: Use postcode SE10 0DX for sat nav. The O2 sits outside the Congestion Charge zone but within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, meaning non-compliant vehicles pay a £12.50 daily charge.
By tube: North Greenwich, on the Jubilee line, is the nearest station, just a couple of minutes' walk from the main entrance.
Book ahead: As the final UK date and a sold-out show, this is the busiest night of the tour for parking — reserve early on JustPark for a space close to the peninsula.

FAQs about Evanescence Parking
Do the arenas have their own car parks?
First Direct Bank Arena, Co-op Live and Utilita Arena don't have dedicated arena car parks, so booking a nearby space in advance is the safest option at all four venues.
How early should I arrive?
Aim to arrive at least an hour before doors to allow for queues, road closures and the walk from your parking space.
Is Birmingham or London still available for tickets?
Both shows are currently listed as sold out. Official resale platforms are the safest option if you're still looking.
Are the venues accessible for Blue Badge holders?
Yes — all four arenas offer accessible parking and access; contact each venue directly ahead of the show to arrange specific requirements.
Ready for the Show?
Wherever you're catching Evanescence this September, book your parking before you buy your popcorn — a reserved space near the arena means less stress and more time to enjoy the show.
