Rammstein, the legendary German industrial metal band known for pyrotechnic spectacle, seismic guitar riffs, and theatrical shows, has fans around the world on edge with whispers of a 2026 world tour titled something like “Set the World Ablaze.” The idea of the band returning with an arena-or stadium-spanning tour is electrifying, as their last major tour (the Stadium Tour, running 2019-2024) was colossal both in scale and impact. Wikipedia But as of this moment, no solid official schedule from Rammstein as a full unit has been published listing all the dates and cities for 2026 under that name.
What is confirmed, however, is that Till Lindemann, Rammstein’s frontman, is doing a solo tour called Meine Welt Tour that extends into early 2026. So many of the reported “Rammstein 2026 tour dates” floating around are actually connected to Lindemann’s solo work. Wikipedia+2thenote.com.au+2
Here are the known Lindemann Meine Welt Tour dates early in 2026: it starts with a show in Bangkok on 3 January, then Almaty, Kazakhstan on the 6th and 7th; Tashkent, Uzbekistan on the 9th; Tbilisi, Georgia on the 11th; then several shows in Australia (Brisbane on 15 Jan, Sydney 17, Melbourne 18, Adelaide 20, Perth 22). RammWiki+1 These are not billed under Rammstein; they are Lindemann solo. It’s important to keep that clear.
Rumors that Rammstein will “Set the World Ablaze” in 2026 seem to be just that right now: speculation, social media posts from fan groups, unverified “dates and cities revealed” posts. Some of these seem to derive from confusion with Lindemann’s Mein Welt or perhaps mis-translations or misattributions. For example Facebook group posts with titles like “Rammstein announces 2026 world tour…” or “Explosive 2026 World Tour from Germany to the Globe — Dates and Cities Revealed” have surfaced, but none of these have been corroborated by Rammstein’s official site or major trusted music press outlets.

If Rammstein were to launch a global tour in 2026 under the “Set the World Ablaze” banner, one would expect several features: large stadium venues, elaborate stage designs (pyrotechnics, fire, mechanical elements), likely a sizable run through Europe (Germany anchoring it), perhaps Asia, North and Latin America, maybe Australia, depending on their logistical plans. Given their stadium tour in recent years amassed over 140 shows and grossed hundreds of millions, expectations are high if they do go all out again. Wikipedia
So the “dates and cities revealed” part remains unverified for Rammstein as a full band. What we do have are these confirmed Lindemann dates:
-
3 January 2026 — Bangkok, Thailand RammWiki
-
6 & 7 January — Almaty, Kazakhstan RammWiki
-
9 January — Tashkent, Uzbekistan RammWiki
-
11 January — Tbilisi, Georgia RammWiki
-
15, 17, 18, 20, 22 January — various Australian cities: Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth RammWiki+1
If Rammstein does release an official “Set the World Ablaze 2026 Tour” schedule, it’s likely to follow similar routing (Asia, Central/Eastern Europe, Australasia, Americas) but scaled much larger.
For fans eager for full Rammstein dates, some things to watch: the band’s official website and social media channels; major music publications (e.g. Rolling Stone, NME, Kerrang, etc.); ticketing platforms in major cities; and announcements via concert promoters. Also check for presale announcements which often leak via subscription mailing lists.
