Beloved rock giants Skillet are heading out on a European tour with a stop in Prague.

The American band Skillet is loved by the Czech audience, and they know exactly why. Their shows are known for their enormous stage presence, which is proof of the exceptional relationship the band has with the audience. This is exactly what fans experienced this year at Rock for People, where their performance rightfully ranked among the highlights of the entire festival. This time, the quartet from Tennessee will perform on May 9, 2026, at Prague's Forum Karlín as part of the RFP Concerts series. After nearly three decades, twelve albums, and thousands of concerts around the world, Skillet plays louder, fights harder, and sounds more rebellious than ever before. The Grammy-nominated formation is one of the most prominent bands in the current rock scene – their energetic combination of hard rock, electronic elements, and strong melodies sounds timeless while bearing their distinct signature. The band, which has won millions of fans worldwide, manages to connect the energy of modern rock with the emotional depth of their lyrics and uncompromising concert shows. Tickets go on sale from September 26 at 10:00 AM on the RFP Concerts website.

Last year, this global hard rock quartet – John Cooper (vocals, bass), Korey Cooper (guitar, keyboards), Jen Ledger (drums, vocals), and Seth Morrison (lead guitar) – brought rebellious, infectious, and unique creations with their twelfth studio album and their very first independently released album, Revolution, which is led by the single "Unpopular." "The revolution we are talking about on this album is not a political revolution and certainly not a militaristic one, which I have never supported. It is a revolution of love. It is a revolution for love towards enemies," explains frontman John about the album's title.

From the beginning of their career, in addition to Grammy nominations, Skillet has received the Billboard Music Award and their three albums have placed in the Top 5 of the Billboard 200 chart. They have sold over 22 million copies worldwide and have earned multi-platinum, platinum, or gold certifications from the RIAA for a total of 12 singles and four studio albums. On Spotify, they are regularly listened to by 10 million listeners monthly and boast "one of the most streamed rock songs of all time" with the five-times platinum track "Monster," which has over 500 million views on YouTube.

Their presence has impressively expanded into the entire popular culture, being mentioned not only by USA Today, The New York Times, and other media but also by WWE, Marvel, ESPN, and the NFL. As a live natural force, they have performed on four continents and in 26 countries, filling arenas to capacity. At the same time, they regularly appear at the top of festival lineups around the world, including several visits and great performances at festivals such as Rock for People, Download, Rock am Ring, Nova Rock, Graspop, and others. Skillet has also expanded their artistic range with a series of graphic novels called EDEN. The first volume stood out as the best-selling book in the history of Z2 Comics.
