The Ark

In 2022, Swedish glam rock band, The Ark, reunited for an anniversary tour that brought together 150,000 fans. Now, it’s time for the band to take the next step. In the summer of 2026, The Ark will once again return to the stage with 24 dates – including a spectacular concert at Dalhalla on July 10, 2026, set to be something truly out of the ordinary.

From the beginning in 1991, The Ark have cemented their unique role in Swedish pop culture. Since their debut, the band has established itself as one of the most influential and charismatic groups in modern Swedish pop and rock history. After a long and successful career of extensive touring and six studio albums, the band announced in 2010 that they had decided to call it a day. Their farewell tour concluded in 2011 with an emotional concert in Stockholm.

The anniversary tour in 2022 was originally intended as a one-time reunion – but it turned out the band wasn’t quite finished with each other. In fact, quite the opposite.

“We went into the 2022 tour a bit hesitant, as a kind of loving retrospective journey. But something happened; what was meant to be a temporary reunion over one summer instead sparked something new. Something bigger than we had imagined was born. We wanted more. Together. Not to repeat the past, but to create something again. Suddenly, new music started to emerge.

In 2026, we’re distilling everything we’ve been into the core of who we are. This is not just a return – we want to create the ultimate The Ark experience. A visual and musical totality that represents the very essence of The Ark”, the band shares.
