German rock legends **Scorpions** have unveiled an ambitious and wide-ranging itinerary to mark their 60th anniversary, with a mix of residencies, festival appearances and stadium concerts slated across 2025 and into 2026.
The festivities kick off with a special **Las Vegas residency**, branded *“Coming Home to Las Vegas – 60 Years of the Scorpions,”* at PH Live inside Planet Hollywood. Originally scheduled for early 2025, the residency was pushed to **August 2025**, with confirmed concert dates on **August 14, 16, 19, 21 and 23**, joined by special guest **Buckcherry**.
Following the residencies, the band will hit the festival circuit and major European venues through summer 2025. Highlights include a concert in **Paris** on **June 24**, a headlining slot at the **Rock Imperium Festival** in **Cartagena** on June 27, and multiple stops in **Spain** (Barcelona, Pamplona, Marbella) between late June and July.
A centerpiece moment is their **“Coming Home to Hannover — Scorpions and Friends”** anniversary concert on **July 5, 2025** in their hometown of Hanover, where they’ll be joined by **Judas Priest**, **Alice Cooper**, and other guest acts.

The European leg includes dates in Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Latvia, Poland, Germany, Italy, Portugal and Monaco, among others.

Notably, health setbacks have forced some cancellations: lead singer **Klaus Meine** was diagnosed with a viral and bacterial infection, leading to the cancellation of shows in **Buenos Aires, Bogotá, and Quito**. ([Louder][6]) The band is expected to resume full momentum in Europe. ([Louder][6])
Beyond concerts, the 60th anniversary push includes a career-spanning compilation *From the First Sting* (out September 2025) and plans for an official biopic *Wind of Change*. ([Rock Cellar Magazine][8])
All told, the Scorpions’ 2025–2026 campaign spans residencies, landmark hometown events, and a globe-spanning tour — a bold celebration of six decades in rock.
