Swedish metal band Ghost is returning to North America! They will kick off their tour at Orlando’s Kia Center in January and wrap it up at LA’s Intuit Dome in late February.
Lead singer Tobias Forge addressed concerns about their set lists, stating they prefer not to change their lineup every night. While the main show remains consistent, some elements will vary from night to night. The stage design features a mix of gothic elements and stark concrete shapes, with their iconic Grucifix symbol hanging above, casting light over the audience.
This tour marks the first time Ghost has incorporated video into their performances, thanks to collaboration between Forge and stage expert Tobias Rylander. Their latest album, *Skeletá*, debuted at number one this spring, selling 86,000 units in its first week. This is a significant achievement, as no hard rock act has topped the charts since 2020.
The Skeletour began before the album’s release, and the stage transforms throughout the night with inflatable pieces that change the scenery. Papa V Perpetua, Forge’s new character, now leads the band through their dark rituals, taking over from Papa Emeritus IV after the “Impera” era.
Forge shared on social media, “Being a musician can be stressful at some point in your career, but at the end of the day, it certainly pays off. Worth every struggle.”
Tickets for the 2026 shows will go on sale in November. Get ready for an unforgettable experience with Ghost!
