Finland's Ensiferum are proud to announce their upcoming European headline tour with Freedom Call and Dragony, set to kick off on 7 January in Heidelberg, Germany. German power metal veterans Freedom Call will join Ensiferum as direct support, while Austrian symphonic power metallers Dragony will be opening each night of the run.
The tour comes in support of Ensiferum's latest album, Winter Storm, released in October 2024 on Metal Blade Records, which marked another milestone in the band's celebrated career. The upcoming shows will bring the album's powerful and anthemic tracks to life on stage, alongside fan favourites from the band's extensive catalogue.
Coinciding with the tour announcement, Ensiferum are also unveiling a brand-new lyric video for Winter Storm's track, "From Order To Chaos".
With anthemic choruses, relentless energy, and their signature blend of folk melodies and metal fury, Ensiferum promise an unforgettable live experience for fans across Europe (see tour dates below). Link
