Following last year’s massive sellout debut shows in North America, Germany’s currently reigning leaders of heavy metal, Powerwolf, are thrilled to announce their highly anticipated return to western shores!
The Platinum-selling, top charting band will return in August & September 2024 on their very first full North American headlining tour, featuring support from Canadian power metal frontrunners and label mates Unleash The Archers. The tour will begin in Los Angeles, CA at The Hollywood Palladium on August 29 and visit a slew of major North American cities, coming to an end in Laval, QC at Place Bell on September 15.
Tickets for Powerwolf’s 2024 North American tour go on sale to the general public this Friday, February 9 at 10:00 AM local time, with select pre-sales launching tomorrow, February 7 via Powerwolf, Spotify, Blabbermouth and Knotfest. For tickets and more information, make sure to check local venue listings and here.
If last year’s world-class debut North American performances were any indication, fans know that tickets for this rare and awe-inspiring experience will sell out at near lightning speed! Powerwolf’s first shows in New York City and Montreal sold out within days, so local fans should not hesitate to witness the Wolf in 2024.
Powerwolf says about their return to North America:
“Last year, our debut in America and Canada left us spellbound, facing sold-out venues and an incredible crowd. The energy was unreal, and we didn’t want to miss it again. It’s going to be sheer madness! This tour marks the official live debut of songs from our upcoming album – don’t miss the excitement”!

Powerwolf are undoubtedly one of the most celebrated and successful heavy metal bands of the last decade. Multiple #1 album chart entries, gold and platinum records, huge sold-out arena shows, as well as headline slots at the biggest festivals have paved their way. In less than 20 years of band history, Powerwolf has made it to the very highest league of heavy metal.
Powerwolf has conquered countless stages at the world’s biggest summer festivals, and their last Wolfsnächte headline tours (2019, 2022), as well as their aforementioned North American debut in early 2023, were almost completely sold out – resulting in a massive triumph. They have performed headlining sets at Wacken and Summer Breeze, as well as held premium slots at genre festival giants such as Hellfest, Graspop, Masters of Rock and many more, captivating enormous audiences. No other German metal band has been able to write a success story even remotely comparable in recent years!
Following their onslaught of North America, Powerwolf will embark on their most impressive European tour yet in celebration of their highly anticipated 2024 studio album. Amid 16 shows in total, the tour will visit colossal venues in Munich, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague, Hamburg and Antwerp. Powerwolf will be accompanied by Swedish heavy metal legends HammerFall as special guests, with support from viral rising stars, dwarven metallers and label mates Wind Rose.

The story of Powerwolf, beginning in 2004, reads like a true fairytale, but is the result of the efforts of one of the most hard-working and entertaining live band on the heavy metal planet. Powerwolf have secured a remarkable collection of gold and platinum awards, starting in 2015, when they reached Gold status for the first time in the Czech Republic with their album, “Blessed & Possessed”. Additionally, both “Preachers of the Night” (2013) and the subsequent masterpiece “The Sacrament of Sin” (2018), as well as the groundbreaking streaming event “The Monumental Mass: A Cinematic Metal Event” (2022), entered the German album and DVD charts at #1 (a massive achievement for an audio-visual release). The thrilling DVD, “The Metal Mass”, (2016) also secured the #1 spot on the German DVD charts. Most recently, the new studio album, “Call of the Wild”, entered the album charts at #2 (and staying for 16 weeks in the charts) while the hit single “Dancing with the Dead” went gold and platinum. The Best Of album, “Best of the Blessed”, released in 2020, also successfully entered the German charts at #2, while the special album, “Interludium”, reached #3.
Over the course of their career, the band has not only fascinated metal fans, but has also won over international press and critics. Countless cover stories in the most important magazines, critics’ awards such as the Metal Hammer Award, and effusive album and concert reviews underpin Powerwolf’s outstanding international status.
With the current studio album, “Call of the Wild”, the special album, “Interludium”, and the upcoming Wolfsnächte Tour 2024 with support from HammerFall and Wind Rose, as well as a new studio album in 2024, it is clear that the metal world continues to be under the spell of the Wolfpack. Powerwolf’s holy mass in the name of heavy metal is unstoppable!
