“It's again been far too long since our last American tour, so we're really happy to announce that we're coming back once again...and with NIGHTWISH nevertheless. As we'll be working on our next studio album in the spring of 2016, be ready to hear some surprises during the tour. Even if we prepared to be in the studio for the whole spring, this was an opportunity that we couldn't pass on and we're all looking forward to see our North American fans once again and kick some ass. Until then, take care and a big cheers!!”
