Konami has confirmed the first live tour dates for the Castlevania 40th Anniversary: An Orchestral Concert, giving fans a concrete timeline for seeing the franchise's music performed live. This event marks a significant milestone for the series, which is celebrating four decades of existence with a dedicated orchestral showcase. Attendees will experience the epic music spanning the entire Castlevania legacy performed by a 25-piece power rock orchestra synchronized with gameplay footage. This concert format provides a distinct method for fans to experience the series' history outside of traditional gameplay.

The concert tour kicks off in Japan on March 13, 2027, at the Tokyo Opera City Concert Hall in Tokyo. The second performance takes place the next day on March 14, 2027 at the Eventim Apollo in London. The run concludes in the United States on March 26, 2027 at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. The tour begins with performances in Tokyo, London, and Los Angeles, with no further dates confirmed at this time.

Konami says the concert will feature “the series’ most beloved and most streamed themes”, including Bloody Tears, Vampire Killer, Dracula’s Castle (from Symphony of the Night) and Divine Bloodlines. Divine Bloodlines originally appeared in Castlevania: Rondo of Blood and also featured in the Castlevania: Nocturne animated series on Netflix. The setlist will also include first live performances of music from Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse. The setlist blends classic themes with newer arrangements to appeal to both long-time fans and those introduced to the franchise through recent media.

Ticket pre-sales begin on October 1, 2026, with specific times designated for each region. Attendees are advised to check official channels for specific pre-sale times for the Tokyo, London, and Los Angeles events. Konami is organizing this live performance to celebrate the franchise's 40th anniversary.
