A new revelation from THE FOX GOD:

“In 2025, BABYMETAL will enter a new era. The METALVERSE will expand and we will travel to a world we have never experienced, with new songs.”

Following this communication from THE FOX GOD, global metal sensation BABYMETAL announce their first-ever Arena Tour of Europe, set to kick off in May 2025. Having headlined arenas and stadiums in their native Japan multiple times, BABYMETAL have comfortably commanded huge shows for years. However, with the exception of a record-breaking sold-out show at London’s OVO Arena Wembley in 2016, the band has not previously had the opportunity to bring their awesome arena show to European audiences. Now, fans can look forward to a show that promises to redefine the BABYMETAL live music experience for audiences across the continent, as they take in some of Europe’s most prestigious rooms, culminating in the UK at London’s O2 Arena. The special guest openers for the tour will be Poppy and Bambie Thug. Tickets and VIP packages on-sale to the general public on Friday, 25th October here

CONCERT REVIEW: Dethklock – Babymetal – DragonForce Live at the Masonic Auditorium 

 

After two landmark performances at the Yokohama Arena, celebrating the birth of MOMOMETAL in a spectacular fashion, in March of 2023 BABYMETAL released their highly anticipated concept album, The Other One, which garnered widespread acclaim and introduced fans to a new era of BABYMETAL’s sound. This new era was the start of a journey that has seen 2024 become watershed year for BABYMETAL, underscoring their evolution as a ground breaking force in the music world.

 

They successfully completed a monumental world tour that started in 2023 and spanned 25 countries across 98 performances, including a slot as special guests to Sabaton all around Europe, a co-headliner with Dethklok across North America, as well as their own headliners in Asia, Australia and their home of Japan.

 

Before embarking on a festival run in the summer, BABYMETAL released their collaboration with Electric Callboy on the hit single ‘RATATATA’, which soared to No. 1 on the US Billboard Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart, and has garnered close to 100 million streams in the few months since its release.This collaboration not only highlighted their artistic versatility and ability to innovate, but also reinforced their position alongside other leaders in the metal genre.

 

Their collaboration with Bring Me The Horizon, ‘Kingslayer ft. BABYMETAL’ released in October 2020, was certified GOLD by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on June 25, 2024. Making waves at major music festivals including DOWNLOAD FESTIVAL in the UK, HELLFEST in France, ROCK IM PARK in Germany, BABYMETAL delivered electrifying performances that left music fans across Europe in awe. Audiences at RESURRECTION FESTIVAL (Spain) and ROCK AM RING (Germany) were treated to an extra special live collaboration with Electric Callboy , who performed ‘RATATATA’ alongside BABYMETAL.

 

As they gear up for their groundbreaking European Arena Tour, BABYMETAL are set to present an immersive experience filled with stunning visuals, powerful performances, and new music – seemingly hinted at in the tour’s trailer – that continues to challenge genre boundaries. And with performances at Slipknot’s Knotfest In Brazil, Argentina and Chile, and another US Tour to see out the year, Su- Metal, Moametal, And Momometal will be on fine form as they embark on their journey into new regions of the METALVERSE in 2025.
