While specific tour dates and venues are yet to be announced, fans are encouraged to stay tuned for upcoming details, as this marks their first major stage appearance since their farewell shows.

The legendary band Twisted Sister is planning a 2026 tour to celebrate their 50th anniversary, featuring performances with founding members Dee Snider, Jay Jay French, Eddie Ojeda, and returning drummer Joe 'Seven' Franco, who last played with them in 1987.

Dee Snider has stated that the reunion is driven by passion and legacy, not financial gain, and has emphasized that the band will focus on select festival appearances and headline shows rather than a full-scale tour.

Snider also mentioned that the band is considering small-scale or charity performances, with no current plans for a permanent reunion, citing friendship and legacy as key motivations.

The band’s influence remains strong, with their songs like 'We’re Not Gonna Take It' ranking highly on NPR’s 'Songs that Unite Us' and their style recognized as iconic and rebellious.

Snider's wife Suzette Snider, who is also the band's makeup artist and costume designer, is working on costumes that pay homage to their '80s style while being age-appropriate for the upcoming performances.

Dee Snider has expressed confidence in his ability to perform demanding 90-minute sets and is committed to delivering a memorable experience for fans.

The reunion aims to deliver loud, energetic performances that honor the band’s rebellious heavy metal legacy, with some costume elements reflecting their iconic '80s look.

While internal discussions about a full reunion continue, no specific dates or venues have been announced, and the band has not ruled out performing at festivals or special events.

Snider has highlighted that the reunion is about performing one more time for the right reasons, emphasizing that it’s not about money but about legacy and the band's enduring appeal.

Despite nearly 50 years and lineup changes, the band has never discussed internal realignment and plans to continue as they have, with guitarist Jay Jay French wishing former member Mark Mendoza well.

This comeback is highly anticipated, especially given the history of other legendary bands reuniting after farewell tours, often driven by ongoing passion and enjoyment.
