2023 marks the final chapter in the long history of Germany’s legendary thrash metal act Holy Moses, celebrated with the bands upcoming new studio album Invisible Queen, and a last run of live shows. Now Holy Moses also confirm their very last live show, which will take place on December 27 at the "Markthalle" in Hamburg, Germany.
"My dear friends, I hereby announce our last Holy Moses show - on 27.12.2023 at the Markthalle in Hamburg... on this day is also my 60th birthday. I would be more than happy if we celebrate this event together. I'm really looking forward to this unique party," Sabina Classen announces.
With Ryker's and Warpath, the first two support acts for this historic event, which will be held under the motto "The very last show - a birthday and a funeral", have also been confirmed.
The band adds: "The culmination of Holy Moses will be a massive thrash party to celebrate Sabina's birthday and the death of her reign as the Queen of Thrash. Let's sell this show out, throw on our battle vests, and party together one last time."
Tickets for the final show are available here, or here.
