Saxon

British heavy‑metal veterans Saxon emerged from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal in the late 1970s, delivering razor‑sharp twin‑guitar riffs, thunderous drums and the soaring vocals of Biff Byford. Their sound blends galloping rhythms with anthemic choruses that have defined classic metal for decades.\nKnown for relentless, high‑energy live shows, Saxon has built a reputation for powerful stage presence and a loyal fanbase that follows them across continents. Their concerts are celebrated for tight musicianship and the ability to ignite metal crowds of all ages.\nThe band will launch an 11‑date UK and Ireland tour beginning on Feb 13, 2027 at the University of Wolverhampton’s Civic Hall, then hitting Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, Manchester, Newcastle, Sheffield, Cardiff, Bristol, Southampton and concluding on Feb 27, 2027 at London’s Eventim Apollo. All dates are confirmed via Ticketmaster, marking the first leg of a new touring cycle.
