Guns N’ Roses have announced they will return to the road on a massive 2025 European and Middle East Tour, headlining stadiums and festivals throughout the summer with special guests Public Enemy, Rival Sons and Sex Pistols featuring Frank Carter on select dates.
The last stop on the first leg of the tour will be the Wacken Open Air in Wacken, Germany on July 31st. In the clip below, Wacken co-founder Holger Hübner comments on finally securing Guns N' Roses for the festival (German with English subtitles).
Hübner: "Of course, we are very happy that Guns N' Roses will finally come to Wacken. Especially for (the band's) 40th anniversary. We've been following the band since the '80s. During the Covid pandemic, I listened to Guns N' Roses almost every day. If you see how we started, and over 30 years later we’re able to welcome such an act. That's insane. We all think it’s gonna be awesome, and I think it's going to be a great show. Forty years of Guns N' Roses, 34 years of Wacken. It won't get any better than that."
Kicking off on May 23, the 24 date tour will see the LA legends perform in Saudi Arabia, Georgia, Lithuania and Luxembourg for the first time. The 2025 dates also see the powerhouse rock band return to familiar stages in Bulgaria, Serbia, Turkey, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Czech Republic, Germany, UK, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland , Poland, Hungary and Austria.
