**Judas Priest Announces “Final Scream” Farewell Tour for Spring 2026**
Legendary heavy metal pioneers Judas Priest have officially announced their “Final Scream” Farewell Tour, set to kick off in Spring 2026. The global trek will span five continents, marking the end of an era for one of the most influential bands in metal history.
The tour promises to be a thunderous celebration of Judas Priest’s five-decade legacy, complete with elaborate stage production, state-of-the-art pyrotechnics, and immersive visuals that pay tribute to the band’s iconic past while looking boldly to the future. Fans can expect a powerful setlist covering classic anthems like *Breaking the Law*, *Painkiller*, *Hell Bent for Leather*, and *Electric Eye*, as well as deep cuts and surprises curated for longtime followers.
Frontman Rob Halford shared, “This isn’t just a concert — it’s a celebration of our journey with our fans. We’re going out screaming, as only Priest can.” The “Final Scream” tour will also feature special guests at select dates, further amping up the energy and spectacle.
With dates scheduled across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, the band has made it clear that this farewell will be a global thank-you to the generations of fans who have kept the Priest flame alive since their 1970s debut.
While the band insists this is indeed their final world tour, they haven’t ruled out the possibility of future studio recordings or one-off appearances. Still, “Final Scream” stands as the definitive last ride for Judas Priest’s live legacy.
Tickets are expected to go on sale later this year, with VIP packages offering exclusive merchandise, meet-and-greets, and limited-edition memorabilia. Metalheads around the world are being urged to prepare for what promises to be one of the most epic send-offs in rock history.
