Associated with strength, power and good luck – the year of the dragon is considered an auspicious time for new beginnings and achieving great accomplishments.
Heilung is set to embark on a new European tour in the year of the dragon. With a set of 12 dates across the European continent in August & September 2024, Heilung aims to bring a realm where past and present converge, creating a unique, unforgettable and transformative journey.
Avant-garde black metal band Zeal & Ardor will be supporting Heilung across these European dates.
Tickets for the tour will go on sale this Thursday at 10:00 CET. Come join the ritual. Tickets can be found here.
Alongside this tour, Heilung are also partnering up with non-profit organization Savage Lands. For the Dreki Ferdhast tour, for each ticket sold, Heilung will donate one euro to the non-profit organization. This will breathe new life in the forests of Costa Rica.

They performed their spellbinding ritual at European summer festivals before heading across the Atlantic for a successful US tour.
In December last year, people across the globe watched Heilung perform at The Game Awards.
The Nordic collective premiered “Seidh” in front of a star-studded audience at The Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles on Thursday, December 7. This song will appear on the soundtrack for Senua’s Saga: “Hellblade II”, which is scheduled for release in 2024. Heilung wrote the full soundtrack for the game in collaboration with Ninja Theory.

According to Greek philosopher Pythagoras, three is a divine number, signifying harmony, wisdom, and understanding. He also believed it to be the number of time – past, present, future; birth, life, death; beginning, middle, end. Purposefully or not, “Drif” embodies this philosophy, putting forth a divine work of art that ties together the beginning of civilization with the modern world today. Make no mistake, Heilung still does not represent any modern political or religious ideology, but rather delivers a humbling reminder of where we came from. “Remember, we are all brothers. All people, beasts, tree and stone and wind, we all descend from the one great being that was always there, before people lived and named it, before the first seed sprouted”.
“Drif” is available on vinyl, CD, cassette and as a digital download through the Season of Mist store, here.
