Having blown Aussie minds at Soundwave 2015, Finnish classical metal masters Apocalyptica are set to return Down Under for a headline tour this September, which will see them hitting up venues around the East Coast and Perth.

Few bands can boast the kind of reputation that Apocalyptica have earned. Their singular take on what is already an esoteric and singular genre has seen them garner endless accolades and countless fans.

Forming in 1993, the cello-wielding four-piece have been concocting an extreme musical blend that marries rock, metal, and classical music that honours and does justice to its symphonic roots as much as its heavy influences.

With eight highly acclaimed albums under their belts and global sales totalling over four million, there’s never been a better time to see Apocalyptica on a live stage. Check below for all the dates and ticketing details.
