Tickets are now available on Dream Theater’s website.
Making the announcement, the band posted on Instagram, “We can’t wait to go back to India, Indonesia, Australia, South Korea, and Japan as part of our 40th Anniversary Tour in 2026.”
This will be the first concert of the band in eastern India, which means Kolkata will be a new destination on their world tour map. Dream Theater performed in India only in 2017 at Mumbai, and audiences in other parts of the country have been awaiting their return ever since.
Dream Theater is an American progressive metal band from Boston, Massachusetts, in 1985. The lineup consists of John Petrucci on guitar, John Myung on bass, Mike Portnoy on drums, James LaBrie as lead vocalist, and Jordan Rudess on keyboards.

The band’s history started as “Majesty,” when Petrucci, Myung, and Portnoy, all of Long Island, New York, came together at Berklee College of Music. They quit college to devote their full attentions to the band, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Throughout the years, Dream Theater experienced many lineup shifts, but Petrucci and Myung have been the band’s steadfast pillars. Portnoy, who departed in 2010 to venture out on other musical pursuits, returned in October of 2023, rejoining the group.
James LaBrie came on board as the lead vocalist in 1991, after short stints with Chris Collins and Charlie Dominici, who was let go soon after the launch of their first album, ‘When Dream and Day Unite’, in 1989.
Dream Theater had sold more than 12 million albums globally and earned three Grammy nominations, winning one in 2022, by 2018.
