Alice Cooper and Judas Priest announce co-headline tour

Shock rock king and heavy metal legends have lined up a 22-date co-headline US tour for later this year. The schedule begins on September 16 at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, MS, and wraps up at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in Houston, TX, on October 26. Support at all shows – apart from the September 18 show in Alpharetta, GA – will come from Corrosion Of Conformity.

Artist presales will begin tomorrow (April 16) at 10am, with kicking off on Friday at the same time. The new dates are in addition to an already-announced UK co-headline show at the O2 in London on July 25, and follow the conclusion of Cooper's Too Close For Comfort tour in late August. Meanwhile, Priest will complete their 2025 European Shield Of Pain schedule in July.
