Live Nation Press Release and Tour Graphic

Triumph, one of Canada’s most revered and influential rock bands, proudly announces their first tour in 30 years with the “Triumph 50th Anniversary Tour,” produced by Live Nation – an expansive 2026 North American run celebrating five decades of musical excellence, pioneering stagecraft, and a legacy that continues to inspire fans worldwide.

“Triumph 50th Anniversary Tour” will make a stop at Darien Lake Amphitheater on June 3.

The band shared, “Our fans have always been the heart of Triumph. Their energy, their belief, and the way they embraced the positivity in our music have carried us for 50 years. We’ve always said these songs were meant to bring people together – and that’s exactly why we’re coming back now. We knew there was still a chapter left to write. This tour is our chance to do it, together with the people who made the Triumph journey possible.”

Tickets for the “Triumph 50th Anniversary Tour,” with special guest April Wine, will be available beginning with a presale running Wednesday, Dec. 10, and Thursday, Dec. 11, giving fans early access to seats. American Express card members in Canada can purchase tickets before the general public. The general on-sale follows at 10 a.m. Friday at livenation.com.

Triumph has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 from every ticket sold will support SoundsUnite – the music community for learning, wellness and creativity – anywhere, anytime, any device.

Formed in Mississauga in 1975, Triumph – Rik Emmett (guitar, vocals), Mike Levine (bass, keyboards) and Gil Moore (drums, vocals) – rose from playing high school auditoriums and rock ’n’ roll bars to selling out iconic arenas, from Toronto’s famed Maple Leaf Gardens to Reunion Arena in Dallas. Their virtuosic musicianship, soaring vocals, and dazzling, high-production live shows helped define an era of arena rock.

Blending hard rock power with progressive ambition, Triumph has sold over 15 million albums worldwide and earned multiple Gold and Platinum certifications, building a global following through headline tours and landmark festival performances, including the 1983 US Festival before 500,000 fans. With hits “Lay It on the Line,” “Magic Power” and “Fight the Good Fight” – combined with pioneering stage productions featuring pyrotechnics, laser lighting and theatrical flair – Triumph became arena rock legends, securing a permanent place in Canadian and international rock history.

The band’s return to the road follows a defining year honoring Triumph’s impact across generations. In June, the band was celebrated with “Magic Power: All-Star Tribute to Triumph” (Round Hill Records), a 15-track tribute album featuring rock luminaries Phil X, Sebastian Bach, Slash, Nancy Wilson, Joey Belladonna, Dee Snider, Lawrence Gowan, Deen Castronovo, Alex Lifeson, Jeff Keith and Mickey Thomas. It was produced by the world-renowned Mike Clink (Guns N’ Roses, Mötley Crüe, Whitesnake).

Further solidifying their celebrated status, Triumph was inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame in October, a prestigious honor recognizing their enduring influence, masterful songwriting, and contributions to Canada’s cultural legacy. This induction adds to their long list of accolades, which includes membership in the Canadian Music Industry Hall of Fame (2007), the Canadian Music Hall of Fame (2008), and Canada’s Walk of Fame (2019).

With the “Triumph 50th Anniversary Tour” and the 2025 “Magic Power: All-Star Tribute to Triumph,” the band celebrates a legacy that grows stronger with every decade – proof that Triumph’s journey from Ontario stages to global acclaim is a true rock ’n’ roll success story.
