Phil Collins - tribute tours keep his songs live in 2026

Phil Collins’ music fills German stages in 2026 as tribute acts like Still Collins and Phil – The Genesis & Phil Collins Tribute tour nationwide, with multiple shows scheduled from late August through December.

Phil Collins remains a central figure in rock and pop, and in 2026 his songs are back on German stages through a dense calendar of tribute shows. According to the current tour overview of Still Collins, the band will play Best of Phil Collins & Genesis concerts across Germany from late August through mid-December 2026, including sold-out dates in Wülmersen and Senftenberg.

Tribute shows across Germany in late 2026

The clearest German anchor this year is the ongoing tour by Still Collins, a long-running tribute band dedicated to Phil Collins and Genesis. Their official tour page lists performances such as Wülmersen on August 28, 2026 and Senftenberg on August 29, 2026, both marked as sold out, followed by further dates in Hilden, Velen-Ramsdorf, Idstein, Koblenz, Wissen and Kaarst in September and early October 2026.Still Collins tour schedule

From October onward, Still Collins expand their German run with shows in Sulingen on October 9 and 10, Renningen on November 7, Soest on November 14, Bonn on November 21, Leverkusen on December 11 and Gelsenkirchen on December 12, all under the Best of Phil Collins & Genesis banner. This sequence of mid-sized venues illustrates how firmly Collins’ catalog is embedded in Germany’s live circuit well into the final quarter of 2026.

Festival and theater tributes in the UK and beyond

Alongside the German dates, several UK theater circuits are presenting Phil Collins tribute shows. The production No Jacket Required, billed as a leading Phil Collins tribute, is touring British venues with a two-hour show built entirely from Top 20 hit singles from Collins’ solo career and his years fronting Genesis, under the title Both Sides Of The Hits. UK venues such as The Stables and Parkwood Theatres promote this 2026 tour as a new show focusing on classics like In the Air Tonight, Against All Odds and Invisible Touch.No Jacket Required tour announcement

Additional productions include And Finally… Phil Collins, described by Lowther Pavilion as one of the UK’s top Phil Collins tributes, with a show scheduled in Lytham St Annes on October 23, 2026. Together with smaller tribute tours like The Phil Collins Story and various club-level shows in the US and UK, these events extend Collins’ live presence far beyond Germany, even though he himself has retired from touring.

The musical core of Phil Collins’ catalog

Phil Collins’ recorded legacy gives these tribute acts a rich songbook to draw from. His eight solo studio albums, from Face Value in 1981 to Going Back in 2010, span drum-heavy, atmospheric pop, blue-eyed soul and Motown covers. The early records are closely associated with the move of Genesis from progressive rock toward more accessible, song-oriented material, with Collins’ voice and drum sound as defining elements.

Key tracks like In the Air Tonight, Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now), You Can’t Hurry Love, Another Day in Paradise and the Tarzan ballad You’ll Be in My Heart cover a wide stylistic range, from moody, gated-reverb ballads to bright, radio-ready pop. This breadth explains why modern tribute shows often emphasize both his solo hits and his Genesis frontman years in equal measure.
