APRIL WINE TO JOIN TRIUMPH FOR 2026 NORTH AMERICAN TOUR

APRIL WINE TO JOIN TRIUMPH FOR 2026 NORTH AMERICAN TOUR
Two legendary Canadian rock bands will hit the road together this fall, with April Wine opening all 16 announced dates on Triumph’s Rock & Roll Machine Reloaded Tour – Leg 2. The North American run will take April Wine across the United States from November 17 through December 12, 2026, with the band opening all announced shows.

The tour will bring two of Canada’s most celebrated rock bands to cities where they have built legions of fans throughout their careers, including Grand Rapids, Cincinnati, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Las Vegas, Seattle, Los Angeles and San Diego.

Tickets are now on sale for all shows. For tour dates and tickets, visit aprilwine.ca.

Fans attending the upcoming dates can expect April Wine to deliver the classic songs that have made the band a fixture of North American rock radio for more than five decades, including “Just Between You and Me,” “Sign of the Gypsy Queen,” “Roller,” “I Like To Rock,” “Say Hello,” “Oowatanite,” “Enough Is Enough,” “Rock N Roll Is A Vicious Game” and many more.

And reviews about the previous leg of the tour have been stellar, including the Sleaze Roxx saying, ” For me, April Wine‘s set turned out to be a real revelation to find out that I know and like April Wine‘s songs so much.” Also, Metal Planet Music adding, “By the time April Wine closed with ‘Roller,’ the crowd was fully activated. As they took their final bows, they gave the crowd a thumbs-up and said, ‘This building sounds incredible tonight’!”

Formed in 1969 and originally based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, April Wine has released 16 studio albums and established a remarkable legacy both in Canada and internationally.

The group has shared stages with some of rock and popular music’s biggest names, including The Rolling Stones, Styx, Rush, The Guess Who, Ike & Tina Turner, Jethro Tull, Badfinger and Stevie Wonder.

The band’s remarkable legacy has been recognized with several major honors. April Wine was inducted into the Canadian Music Industry Hall of Fame in 2009, the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 2010, and Canada’s Walk of Fame in 2023.

April Wine was led for decades by singer, guitarist and songwriter Myles Goodwyn, who remained the face and creative force of the band until his death in 2023.

Today, Brian Greenway, April Wine’s longest-serving member, continues the band’s legacy. Greenway joined April Wine in 1977 and performs guitar, harmonica and vocals. He is joined in the current lineup by Marc Parent on lead vocals and guitar, Richard Lanthier on bass, and Roy Nichol on drums.

Greenway and his bandmates will bring April Wine’s unmistakable combination of anthemic melodic rock and powerful ballads to stages across North America this fall, giving longtime fans the opportunity to hear the band’s classic songs performed live once again.
