The iconic German hard rock band Scorpions has officially announced their highly anticipated 2025 World Tour, promising to deliver a thunderous experience across 30 cities worldwide. Dubbed *“Scorpions Rock Nation”*, the tour marks another milestone in the band’s legendary career, bringing their electrifying stage presence and timeless hits to fans on nearly every continent.
Formed in Hanover in 1965, Scorpions have become one of the most successful rock acts of all time, selling over 100 million records globally. With classic anthems like *“Rock You Like a Hurricane,” “Wind of Change,”* and *“Still Loving You,”* the band has earned its place in the pantheon of rock legends. Now, in their 60th year as a band, they’re preparing to prove that their sting is as powerful as ever.
### A Global Rock Spectacle
The *Scorpions Rock Nation World Tour 2025* will kick off in late February in Tokyo, Japan, and span four continents, concluding in early October in São Paulo, Brazil. The tour will feature stops in major cities including Los Angeles, London, Berlin, Sydney, Toronto, Cape Town, and Dubai. According to the band’s official announcement, this will be their most ambitious stage production to date, combining cutting-edge visuals, pyrotechnics, and a setlist that pays tribute to their six-decade legacy.
Lead singer Klaus Meine expressed his excitement about the tour in a statement:
*”It’s incredible to still feel the energy of our fans after all these years. We’re beyond excited to hit the road and share this journey with a new generation of rockers, as well as those who have been with us since the beginning.”*
### New Surprises in Store
In addition to the beloved classics, fans can expect to hear material from Scorpions’ 2022 album *”Rock Believer,”* which marked a return to their raw, guitar-driven roots. The band has also teased a few surprises—hinting at new, unreleased songs that could make their debut during the tour. Guitarist Rudolf Schenker added, *”We’ve been in the studio off and on, and there are a few tracks we’ve been saving for the right moment. This tour might just be it.”*
The 2025 shows will also feature special guest performers, though the band has not yet revealed any names. Past tours have seen collaborations with acts like Whitesnake, Def Leppard, and Alice Cooper, so expectations are high.
### Tickets and Fan Packages
Tickets for the *Scorpions Rock Nation* tour go on sale starting June 15, 2025, with exclusive pre-sale access for fan club members beginning June 12. VIP packages will include meet-and-greets, soundcheck access, limited-edition merchandise, and premium seating.
Fans are urged to act quickly, as several cities are expected to sell out within hours. Promoters have already reported “unprecedented interest” from fans eager to experience the band live, especially in regions where Scorpions haven’t performed in over a decade.
### A Legacy That Endures
Scorpions’ influence on rock music is undeniable. From their melodic ballads to their heavy riffs, the band has inspired countless musicians across generations. Their unique ability to blend emotion with explosive power has helped them maintain a dedicated global fanbase.
Drummer Mikkey Dee, who joined the band in 2016, summed it up best: *“This isn’t just a tour. It’s a celebration—of music, of fans, of six decades of doing what we love. Rock and roll is alive and well, and Scorpions are here to prove it.”*
As the world braces for this monumental tour, one thing is clear: Scorpions aren’t just living legends—they’re still riding the hurricane.
