Halloween is only two weeks away, and plans need to be made. If Halloween costume parties really aren't your thing, or if you'd simply choose a live show any day of the week – we've rounded up a few concert dates in Germany (plus one UK exception) happening right on October 31, 2026. There might just be something for you.
Korn + Architects (UK)
We're kicking things off with the exception right away; maybe your weekend allows for a quick trip to the UK? Korn are hitting the road across Europe starting mid-October, bringing Architects along for the ride as special guests. Before October 31, however, they're also playing three shows in Germany – arguably the cheaper alternative.

Motionless In White / Apocalypse Fest (US)
Motionless In White just went ahead and chose Halloween for their very own festival. This year's Apocalypse Fest features, apart from MIW themselves as headliners, Dayseeker, The Devil Wears Prada and Dark Divine. And since the band was founded in 2006, they're are also celebrating 20 years together on this occasion. Happy Halloween indeed:
- October 31, 2026 – US – Apocalypse Fest, Philadelphia, PA
Wage War (US)
Wage War are joined on their North America tour this fall by We Came As Romans, Varials and Cane Hill. Their new studio album Landfall just released digitally last week as well, available for pre-order with us here. For the Halloween night, the band will stop in California:
-
October 31, 2026 – US – Riversiden Municipal Auditorium, CA
Amon Amarth (EU)
Amon Amarth have been out on tour with their new album The Allfather Awakens since last week, backed by support from Orbit Culture and Soilwork. The run extends through mid-November, meaning the Halloween show merely marks the halfway point. Secure your copy of the new album right here.

October 31, 2026 – DE – Oberhausen, Rudolf Weber-Arena
Acres (EU)
With The Host UK & European Tour 2026, Acres are also honoring their latest studio album of the same title. The record dropped in autumn 2025, essentially celebrating its first birthday on the tour, which kicks off today in Bristol, UK.

October 31, 2026 – DE – Cologne, Helios37
Citizen (EU)
Ever since summer and shortly after the release of their new studio album Halcyon Blues, Citizen have been busily touring North America, but this autumn they're heading across Europe. On October 31, a show in Hamburg is on the schedule – definitely leaving you with plenty of options for a weekend packed with Halloween events along the Reeperbahn and throughout the city.
