Alice Cooper and Judas Priest Join Forces on 2025 Tour

Legendary rock icons Judas Priest and Alice Cooper are joining forces for a monumental co-headlining tour across North America in the fall of 2025. This tour promises a unique convergence of classic rock and heavy metal, featuring notable support from Corrosion of Conformity, a band known for their stoner-metal style. Set to commence on September 16 at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Mississippi, the tour is produced by Live Nation and spans 22 cities, concluding on October 26 at The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands, Texas. With stops in major cities including Toronto, Phoenix, Los Angeles, and Houston, this tour offers fans across two countries an opportunity to experience the vibrant energy and timeless music of these iconic performers.

Judas Priest, a band with a legacy of over five decades, continues to reign as a pillar of the heavy metal genre. Their latest album, “Invincible Shield,” released in 2024, reaffirms their relevance in modern rock music. The album's success is part of their long history of influential music, with classics like “British Steel” and “Screaming For Vengeance” setting the standard for heavy metal. The current tour supports this album while also showcasing their extensive catalog of hits. Tragically, the tour announcement coincides with the news of former Judas Priest drummer Les Binks’ passing at age 73. Binks had contributed significantly to the band’s success during his tenure, playing on important albums like “Stained Class.”

Alice Cooper, often hailed as the godfather of shock rock, is renowned for his theatrical stage performances and a career that spans over fifty years. Cooper's stage presence and elaborate live shows have set a high bar for rock performances worldwide. His latest album, “Road,” continues his tradition of blending horror and rock with flair. Cooper's participation in this tour follows his “Too Close For Comfort” tour, which has already garnered significant attention. For this tour alongside Judas Priest, Cooper has planned an all-new show, ensuring that each performance brings something fresh to the table for the fans.

The tour setlist and performances aim to cater to both seasoned fans and new listeners by combining classic hits with recent releases. Corrosion of Conformity will join as the opening act, lending their distinctive sound to the tour’s diverse musical experience. Notably, they will not perform at the Alpharetta, Georgia show on September 18. Tickets for the tour are available through a series of pre-sales beginning April 16, with the general sale commencing April 18 on platforms like Ticketmaster and Live Nation's website, ensuring fans have ample opportunity to secure their spots for these historic performances.
