Judas Priest bringing heavy metal tour to Phoenix

Rock and Roll Hall of Famers set to release new album ‘Invincible Shield’

Heavy metal titans Judas Priest have announced the second leg of their Invincible Shield Tour will hit Phoenix.

The legends will take over new markets in North America this fall with an additional 23 performances. All shows will feature music from their anticipated new album “Invincible Shield.”

The tour kicks off in September in Montreal and wraps up with three shows in Texas in October. In between the band will appear in Phoenix at Arizona Financial Theatre on Friday, Oct. 18, with special guest Sabaton.

Tickets will be available starting with an artist presale beginning Wednesday, June 12. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general on sale beginning at 10 a.m. Friday, June 14 at judaspriestinvincibleshield.com.

Judas Priest, a powerhouse in the world of heavy metal, has spent more than 50 years crafting a legendary career. Emerging from Birmingham in 1969, the band originally solidified their place in music history with iconic albums like “Sad Wings of Destiny” and “Sin After Sin” known for metal anthems like “Sinner” and “Hell Bent for Leather.”

The '80s marked their pinnacle with classic albums “British Steel,” “Screaming for Vengeance,” and “Defenders of the Faith,” which generated hits like “Breaking the Law.”

Amid health setbacks and the pandemic, Priest persevered with a 50th-anniversary tour and a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction.
