THE TIME HAS COME... Avatar Australian Tour Starts This Week

After more than a decade of anticipation, 9 albums, countless fan petitions, and even a support group for Australian fans longing for a tour, the moment has arrived. This week, one of the most iconic live bands in the history of heavy music is finally gracing Australian shores. Celebrated for their legendary performances, exceptional musical prowess, and an extensive repertoire of killer songs, AVATAR is set to kick off their long-awaited tour in Australia.

AVATAR have long been your favourite metal band's favourite metal band. From Iron Maiden inviting them on tour; to Vinnie Paul claiming Dimebag would have been jealous of their riffs; to mega star cameos on their albums, including Halestorm's Lzzy Hale on the new one, Avatar have never lacked for adoration from their peers. When Matt Heafy of Trivium had to skip a few shows on their tour for the birth of his twins his choice to fill in for him was Avatar's Johannes Eckstrom. The side of stage at every one of their US and Euro festival appearances always features a packed gallery of the who is who of rock luminaries riveted by and gaping the pure joy and spectacle.
