Judas Priest Keeps the Metal Strong with Fall North American Tour for Invincible Shield

Legendary heavy metal band Judas Priest is extending their Invincible Shield tour with a fresh round of North American dates this fall. After recently concluding a successful U.S. tour, the British icons are ready to hit the road again, kicking off a 25-date run at Montreal’s Bell Centre on September 13.

The tour continues to support their critically acclaimed album Invincible Shield, released earlier this year, marking their first album of new material since 2018. This latest leg features a mix of headlining arena dates and appearances at prominent festivals like Louder Than Life and Aftershock. Swedish power-metal band Sabaton will join them as the supporting act for the headlining shows.

Judas Priest, pioneers of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM), have always been known for their high-energy performances and relentless touring schedule. Fans can expect a powerhouse setlist blending tracks from Invincible Shield with their classic hits like “Breaking the Law,” “You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’,” and “Painkiller.” This tour promises to uphold the band’s reputation for delivering some of the most electrifying shows in the metal world.

Pre-sales for the new dates start on June 12, with general ticket sales opening on June 14. The tour includes stops at notable venues across the U.S. and Canada, culminating at The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory in Irving, Texas, on October 26.

The fall tour offers a rare chance to see Judas Priest in action, performing with the same vigor and passion that has defined their nearly five-decade career. Fans old and new should prepare for a thrilling ride through the band’s storied musical legacy, reinforced by the potent new material from Invincible Shield.
