Straddling the line between the sacred and profane, Behemoth has risen to become extreme metal’s most revered and provocative band, steeped in anti-authoritarian fire. Renowned for their elaborate live performances, the band continues to push boundaries with their fearless artistry and vision. This tour will see them draw from three decades of song.

“We’re coming to set stages ablaze and leave no soul unscathed,” says indomitable front-man Nergal. “This tour is a celebration of Behemoth’s legacy and a testament to the unbreakable spirit of our fans. Expect chaos, fire, and a ritual like no other.”

They will be bringing out Polish black metal musician, lyricist and upcoming anthem-maker, Nidhogg.

Presented by Phoenix, pre sale will begin from Friday 17 October at 9.00am local time. General ticket sale will hit on Monday 20 October from 9am local time.
