KK’s Priest and Accept have announced the “Full Metal Assault” Fall 2024 North American co-headlining tour.
Dates kick off August 31st in Los Angeles and run through October 7th in San Francisco. The extensive outing will make stops in major markets such as Denver, Toronto, New York City, Boston, Nashville, and Dallas along the way.
A Live Nation ticket pre-sale has begun using the code SOUNDCHECK, while general ticket sales start Thursday (May 9th) at 10 a.m. ET via Ticketmaster. Fans can also look for deals or get tickets to sold-out dates via StubHub, where your purchase is 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s Fan Protect program.
The outing will reunite K.K. Downing of Judas Priest fame and German metal icons Accept, with the two latter bands having toured together in the early ’80s as part of the burgeoning UK/European metal movement.
“Not since 1983 have we shared the same battleground,” remarked Downing in a press release. “From Germany, from the UK, let the Flying Vs clash, let the metal fly! All in the name of defending our beloved heavy metal music, let the people come from all walks of life to witness the battle royal. There is no doubt that we warriors of metal will give every ounce of our energy and our power in order to deliver up our very finest performance. This is a spectacle not to be missed, and this is possibly the one and only time in history for you to witness this iconic duel. Who will be the victor? You will be the judge, let the music begin from early August to early October… The arena awaits!!”
Added Accept’s Wolf Hoffmann: “This tour with KK’s Priest is a dream come true for Accept and for me personally. Accept supported Judas Priest back in the early ’80s — it was our first ‘real’ international tour and Priest had been a huge influence on us. I’m really looking forward to reconnecting with KK on this very special tour. It’s going to be epic! Don’t miss it!”
