Eric Church is ready to dazzle fans in a whole new way with the upcoming release of his IMAX concert film, “Evangeline vs. The Machine Comes Alive,” hitting theaters on February 13, 2026. This isn’t just your run-of-the-mill concert film; Church is bringing his acclaimed 2025 album and a slew of beloved hits to life in jaw-dropping IMAX clarity. Imagine those boots-on-the-ground moments with a six-piece band, a choir, and the full cinematic experience—it sounds like a country lover’s dream!
Filmed over two spectacular nights at The Pinnacle in Nashville, the concert will feature fan favorites like “Desperate Man” and “Springsteen” alongside his new tracks. It’s like Church said: those nights transported him to another musical realm, and now he’s inviting us on that journey too! Who wouldn’t want a front-row seat to that? It’s bound to be an unforgettable experience, as if you’re plucked right from your seat at home and dropped into a rockin’ arena.
And for those of you who can’t get enough Eric Church, don’t fret! He’s also expanding his Free The Machine Tour in 2026 with 24 brand-new stops, including some surprises along the way. With special guests like Ashley McBryde joining in for select dates, you might just want to start practicing your best air guitar moves now. So, are you gearing up to grab tickets for either the film or the tour? Let’s just say, this is an experience you won’t want to miss out on as we shout “y’all” from the IMAX rooftops!
