Amy Lee and Evanescence have announced a 47-date world tour, which will hold its second show at Tampa’s old Gary amphitheater.

In terms of new releases, the rock collective spent 2025 watching its new songs appear on the silver screen and in a Netflix series respectively. “Fight Like A Girl” (“From the World of John Wick: Ballerina”) and “Afterlife” (“Devil May Cry”) were both performed at its electrifying opening set for My Chemical Romance’s BOTB-winning “Long Live The Black Parade” tour closer at Raymond James Stadium almost three months ago, so you might want to fire up your streaming services before you combat yet another summer of intense heat.

The femme energy will be fierce on this tour too, because opening sets on this leg come from Grammy Award-nominated Canadian metal outfit Spiritbox and rock sisters-from-another-mister Nova Twins, who dropped their uber-human, empowering third album Parasites and Butterflies earlier this year.

Tickets to see Evanescence play Tampa’s Midflorida Credit Union Amphitheatre on Friday, June 12 go on sale this Friday and start at $51. Additional presales will be going on throughout the week. Oh, and don’t forget to buy your once-free, $20 on-site parking in advance (thanks, Joe Biden.)
