International rock tours South America 2026‑27

Overview

In July 2026 two foreign rock acts announced their first South American appearances in more than a decade. British doom‑metal band My Dying Bride revealed shows in Santiago, Chile (23 Nov) and São Paulo, Brazil (29 Nov), marking the group’s inaugural South American tour in 13 years and featuring new vocalist Mikko Kotamäki.

A week later, American punk‑rock band Social Distortion disclosed a broader Latin‑American itinerary that includes debut concerts in Chile (17 Nov, Teatro Caupolicán) and Brazil (14‑15 Nov, São Paulo’s Vibra and Curitiba’s Live venue). The tour supports their new album *Born to Kill* and also spans Mexico, Argentina and other regional cities. Tickets for the Chilean and Brazilian shows go on sale on 28 July 2026 through local platforms, with Brazilian promoters Solid Music, Caveira Velha and Desgosto Discos handling the events.

Later in July, Social Distortion’s Brazil dates were reiterated alongside a separate announcement that American rock group Evanescence plans a South‑American leg for their 2026 album *Sanctuary* in 2027, targeting Brazil, Chile and Colombia. The Evanescence addition underscores a growing demand for overseas rock acts in the region and extends the touring wave into the following year.

Together, these announcements illustrate a surge of international rock bands scheduling multi‑city tours across Chile, Brazil and neighboring countries for November 2026 and beyond, highlighting renewed focus on the South American market after long periods of limited activity.
