EPICA – postpone “The Epic Apocalypse Tour” with Apocalyptica to 2023

 

Once again, symphonic metal titans EPICA are forced to reschedule their co-headline tour with Apocalyptica due to the still ongoing restrictions in various countries that make it impossible to plan a 2-month-long tour run across Europe and 17 countries. To ensure the safety of their fans in the crowd, “The Epic Apocalypse Tour” is now postponed to January, February and March of 2023. Previously purchased tickets will remain valid and are available at epica.nl (VIP upgrades also possible).

EPICA singer Simone Simons comments: “We are very sorry to inform you that we have been forced to postpone our European tour with Apocalyptica and Wheel once again. Even though in some countries shows of this size are allowed again, it is too early to do a full European tour with such a large production and travel party which would be performing in over 15 different countries. Our patience is put to the test as we really want to get back on the road to perform in front of our fans, but we want to be sure that everyone is safe and can enjoy the shows the right way. Thank you all so much for your patience! We will see each other soon again.”

APOCALYPTICA adds: “We are more than disappointed to announce the postponement of ‘The Epic Apocalypse’ Tour once again, but looking on the current situation we cannot take the responsibility to play these shows. We do not want to put anyone at risk and are very much looking forward to play these shows in 2023 where we can hopefully go back to playing shows like we did before! We hope to see you soon! Stay safe!”
