Trivium announce 13-date intimate UK tour

It’s shaping up to be a ridiculously busy year for Trivium! Fresh from their incredible UK headline tour last month, not to mention recently announcing a massive co-headline run with Beartooth in the U.S., the band have just confirmed even more shows coming up.

The metal heroes will be crossing the pond once again for what they’re calling the Goblins And Wizards Tour: 13 intimate UK shows at some lesser-visited spots, with Bleed From Within and Orbit Culture as support.

“Since the first UK headline tour in 2005 we’d made it a point to do our best to get out of the big cities and play other ones that might get overlooked or skipped,” says bassist Paolo Gregoletto. “We looked at old Maiden and Motörhead posters and let that inspire the way we routed this one.

“Bleed From Within and Orbit Culture are two of our favourite new bands and we are honoured to have them join us. This is going to be the biggest and best metal show to hit your town this summer guaranteed!”

We don’t doubt it. Tickets go on sale this Wednesday, February 15, at 10am.
