HELLOWEEN - album artwork & tour!

What is worth waiting for: UNITED FORCES TOUR 2022 It was already foreseeable: Due to the pandemic, the originally for April/May scheduled HELLOWEEN European tour has to be postponed again. However, this is no reason to hang your head, even more so now: it is getting even more powerful in 2022! We all have to stick together to stand and endure this agonizing live music gap and because extraordinary circumstances require extraordinary measures, HELLOWEEN invited their friends from HAMMERFALL to join them on their European tour in order to create a tremendous metal-package together. The UNITED FORCES TOUR 2022 called alliance is not only the full HELLOWEEN experience, on top the fans will enjoy fine Swedish steel out of the HAMMERFALL forge. Both bands will have brand-new albums in their luggage and the European fans will be able to listen to the new songs live for the very first time on the UNITED FORCES TOUR 2022. The long–awaited end of the dry spell is in sight - coming with a double dose in March, April and May 2022 as we have to catch up two years of METALPARTY to get cured from a lot of withdrawal symptoms! Andi Deris: “We are 'hammered' to have our friends from HAMMERFALL with us on tour! Back in 2002 the band produced their album “Crimson Thunder” in my studio in Tenerife and we had a lot of fun back then." This mega-package is delivering the appropriate metal-spectacle to enter the stage with full power! Oscar Dronjak can hardly wait: "We are so ridiculously excited about this! Not only do we get to go out on tour again after two looooooooong years of stage draught, but we get to do it with a band that we love and was a great inspiration to us in forming HAMMERFALL in the first place. The UNITED FORCES TOUR will be something truly special, you can count on that! “ For the dry run up front, HELLOWEEN is releasing their fantastic new album and with the unification of their three vocalists Kiske, Deris & Hansen the album reminiscences to all eras of the band’s history. This already is a sensation in itself, but also HAMMERFALL is ready to release a brand-new record before the tour starts. A great forerunner to get warmed up for the double load of live power with the ultimate UNITED FORCES TOUR 2022. And whoever misses the just announced dates was probably never infected by the metal virus … HELLOWEEN & HAMMERFALL UNITED FORCES TOUR 2022 presented by Metal Hammer, Rockantenne, Piranha, Start, Rocks & Rock It 25-Mar-2022 NOR Oslo - Sentrum Scene 26-Mar-2022 SWE Gothenburg - Partille Arena 28-Mar-2022 FIN Helsinki - Black Box 29-Mar-2022 EST Tallinn - Noblessneri Valukoda 01-Apr-2022 GER Bamberg - Brose Arena 02-Apr-2022 GER Hamburg - Sporthalle 03-Apr-2022 GER Berlin - Verti Music Hall 04-Apr-2022 GER Regensburg - Donau Arena 08-Apr-2022 ES Madrid - Wizink Center 09-Apr-2022 ES Barcelona - St. Jordi Club 11-Apr-2022 IT Milan - Lorenzini District 12-Apr-2022 GER Kempten - Black Box 13-Apr-2022 CH Zürich - Samsung Hall 15-Apr-2022 LUX Luxemburg - Rockhal 16-Apr-2022 NL Tilbourg - 013 18-Apr-2022 PL Katovice - MCK 20-Apr-2022 BG Sofia - Arena Armeec 22-Apr-2022 AT Vienna - Gasometer 23-Apr-2022 CZ Prag -O2 24-Apr-2022 SK Zvolen - Ice Stadium 26-Apr-2022 HU Budapest - Papp Laszlo Sportarena 29-Apr-2022 GER Bochum - Ruhrcongress 30-Apr-2022 GER Stuttgart - Schleyerhalle 01-May-2022 GER Frankfurt - Jahrhunderthalle 04-May-2022 UK Manchester - Manchester Academy 05-May-2022 UK London - Brixton Academy 19-May-2022 RU St. Petersburg - A2* 21-May-2022
