The tour is slated to conclude on May 7th in Katowice, Poland. Throughout the UK and Ireland, Trivium will headline with In Flames as special guests. This arrangement will shift in Scandinavia, where In Flames will take the headline slot. Supporting acts for all dates will be Paleface Swiss and Vola, adding further depth to the concert lineups.

This joint tour builds upon a history of collaboration between Trivium and In Flames. The announcement comes shortly after Trivium frontman Matt Heafy made a guest appearance during In Flames’ set at the Goteborg Brinner festival, performing their song ‘Artifacts Of The Black Rain’. This onstage collaboration likely fueled further discussions for the larger tour. In terms of recent output, In Flames released their latest album, ‘Foregone’, in 2023.
