Fans of one of the most legendary thrash metal bands in music history just got some exciting news amid the band’s farewell tour. Megadeth announced at the start of August that they would be embarking on Breakout: Hibernation Of The Nations, the European leg of their ongoing farewell tour.
Set to start in March 2027, the band is returning with their first headlining tour in the U.K. in almost 12 years, while the tour will also extend to other parts of Europe. The last time Megadeth led a tour in the U.K. was in November 2015, when they co-headlined a handful of concerts with Lamb Of God.
The tour will start with a show in Belfast, Northern Ireland, on March 9, with stops in London, Nottingham, Manchester, Birmingham, and Leeds in England, Cardiff in Wales, and Glasgow in Scotland.
Starting March 21, the tour will move into the rest of Europe, stopping in France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Poland, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, and Portugal. The final show is set for Lisbon on April 13.
Presale for tickets started on Aug. 4, while the general sale starts on Aug. 7, at 10 a.m. local time. Megadeth will be joined by the metal bands Black Label Society and Testament for the whole tour.

Despite this, the overwhelming feeling from Megadeth fans was happiness and excitement, with many already planning their trip to see the show.
