We are thrilled to announce that Uli will return to Metal’s „Holy Grounds“ in Germany from July 29 to August 1, 2026.
This will not be just another concert—it is a celebration of rock history. Uli Jon Roth will perform a special „50th Anniversary of Virgin Killer“ set on the main stage. Joining forces with Special Surprise Guests, the band will unleash a full set of early Scorpions classics.
Uli is ready to bring the magic back to Wacken. On this special occasion, he states:
„I’m really looking forward to celebrating the upcoming 50th anniversary of Virgin Killer, which was one of the most important albums I have recorded in my life. We’re joining forces with several very special guests on the Wacken main stage in 2026, and we’ll be playing a full set of early Scorpions classics together. Sparks will fly!“
Accompanying this announcement is brand new artwork (pictured). This reimagined visual finally reflects the song’s true lyrical content and deeper meaning—the loss of innocence in a fractured world—capturing the spirit of the music exactly as it was intended.
See you on the Holy Ground!
