LiSA is heading to Europe and the UK for the first time as a solo artist with her "LiVE is Smile Always～15～Europe & UK Tour 2026."

The announcement marks a major milestone for the 37-year-old singer, who has spent 15 years building her solo career in Japan. While she's performed overseas before with her former band Girls Dead Monster, this will be her debut solo tour outside of Asia.

LiSA became a household name internationally through her powerful anime theme songs, particularly "Gurenge" from Demon Slayer and "Crossing Field" from Sword Art Online. Her emotional vocal style and rock-influenced sound have made her one of Japan's most recognizable voices in anime music.

The tour title references her ongoing "LiVE is Smile Always" concert series, which has been a staple of her live performances in Japan. The "15" likely celebrates her decade and a half as a solo performer, having started her solo career in 2010 after Girls Dead Monster disbanded.

For European fans who have been following LiSA through her anime work, this represents a rare chance to experience her high-energy live performances firsthand. Her concerts typically feature a mix of her biggest anime hits alongside deeper cuts from her studio albums.

Specific dates and venues for the 2026 tour have not been announced yet, but the news has already generated excitement among international fans who have been requesting overseas dates for years.
