TRIUMPH Announce First Full Tour in Over 30 Years — 50th Anniversary Reunion

1 April 2026  ·  Tour News  · By Scorpio

Canadian hard rock and heavy metal legends TRIUMPH have announced The Rock & Roll Machine Reloaded 2026 Tour, a 24-date North American trek celebrating the band's 50th anniversary. Kicking off April 22 in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario and running through June 6 in Boston, it marks the band's first full tour in over 30 years — their last having concluded in 1993.

All three original members will perform: vocalist/guitarist Rik Emmett, bassist/keyboardist Mike Levine, and drummer/vocalist Gil Moore. They'll be joined by an expanded six-piece lineup including guitarist Phil X (on loan from Bon Jovi), and bassist Todd Kerns and drummer Brent Fitz — both veterans of Slash's touring band — adding considerable firepower to an already formidable stage presence.

TRIUMPH were among the biggest Canadian rock acts of the late 1970s and '80s, known for arena anthems including "Magic Power," "Lay It on the Line," "Fight the Good Fight," and "Hold On." Their last studio album, Edge of Excess, arrived in 1992. The band made a one-off appearance at Sweden Rock Festival in 2008, but this 2026 run represents their first genuine, full-scale touring commitment in three decades.

Support throughout the tour comes from fellow Canadian classic rock veterans April Wine. Tickets are on sale now.
