The trek caps with a show at London’s O2 Arena
Last month, Judas Priest announced it would embark on The Shield of Pain Tour 2025, but didn’t reveal any dates. This week, the heavy British rockers share that the trek will kick off on June 4th in Oslo, Norway, and wrap with the group’s biggest show in London at O2 Arena with Alice Cooper.
The band will celebrate the 35th anniversary of its 1990 album, Painkiller, although it’s unclear in what capacity. Priest will perform a rare unique set that includes beloved classics to defend the metal faith in a truly memorable experience throughout Europe next summer.
The group recently wrapped its Invincible Shield Fall 2024 Tour with special guest Sabaton. All shows will feature music from their highly-anticipated album Invincible Shield.
