With the concert set to unfold at Birmingham’s Villa Park, fans from around the globe are invited to partake in this historic event. Despite the physical venue being sold out swiftly, the band is foregoing the geographical restrictions by livestreaming the concert, allowing fans worldwide to witness this epic farewell.

The upcoming event is not just a simple concert; it is a massive celebration of the heavy metal genre, bringing together titans of the music world.
