The HU and Apocalyptica Join Forces for 2026 North American Co-Headlining Tour
Mongolian "Hunnu Rock" pioneers The HU and Finnish cello-metal titans Apocalyptica have officially announced a massive co-headlining tour across North America for Spring 2026. Adding to the powerhouse lineup, platinum-selling Finnish rockers The Rasmus will serve as special guests for the entire trek.
The tour, which was confirmed on February 9, 2026, will see these three unique musical forces travel from the East Coast to the West, kicking off on May 12 in Silver Spring, Maryland, and concluding on June 7 in Anaheim, California.
A Meeting of Global Metal Innovators
The pairing brings together two of metal’s most innovative acts. The HU are hitting the road in support of their highly anticipated third studio album, The Hun. The band recently released the single "The Real You," which showcases a shift toward a more atmospheric, upbeat sound while retaining their signature throat singing and traditional Mongolian instrumentation.
Apocalyptica continues to ride the wave of success following the release of Plays Metallica, Vol. 2, a sequel to the 1996 debut that originally catapulted them to international fame. The band remains one of the genre’s most enduring success stories, having sold over six million records while redefining the boundaries of heavy music with the cello.
