BABYMETAL Announces 2025 European Arena Tour with New Music
Japanese metal sensation BABYMETAL has unveiled plans for their first-ever European arena tour, set to commence in May 2025. The announcement comes with the promise of a “new era” and the expansion of the “Metalverse,” featuring new songs that will introduce fans to uncharted musical territories.
The tour will span multiple countries, including Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Switzerland, Spain, France, and the United Kingdom. Notably, the UK leg will culminate in a landmark performance at London’s O2 Arena on May 30, 2025, marking the first time a Japanese group has headlined a solo show at this prestigious venue.
Joining BABYMETAL on this tour are special guests Poppy and Bambie Thug, adding an extra layer of excitement for concertgoers. Tickets for the UK and European dates are slated to go on sale on October 25, 2024, via BABYMETAL’s official website.
