MARILLION – the summer tour 2026 – Markus' Heavy Music Blog

After over 10 years, Marillion will return to Germany for a major summer tour in 2026. The veteran band, a flagship of the prog scene, will present the best of their 47-year career and 20 studio albums.

Marillion is a work of art and one of the last bands to put on a standard rock show in venues where other bands of comparable size only perform. Their shows are a fireworks display of sound, light, and video. Each performance is full of emotion and unique!

Marillion is a band that reinvented itself after Fish’s departure and has consistently continued on its new path with Steve Hogarth to this day. Hogarth is a stage giant who captivates and enthralls every audience with his unique vocals, energy, and power.

Marillion shows that it’s possible to survive for decades outside the mainstream. Who would have thought that would be possible after Fish left in 1987?

Marillion has released an outstanding album in every decade. In the ’80s, it was “Misplaced Childhood,” and in the ’90s, “Brave.” Then came “Marbles” in 2004, followed by “F.E.A.R.”. In March 2023, their 20th studio album was released with the very relevant title: “An Hour Before It’s Dark.”
