Danish thrash/prog metallers, MANTICORA have announced a European headliner tour for 2021. They are headed out on what could likely be the first heavy metal-related European tour in 2021, after the lock-down.
Covid-19 has robbed the world of way too many shows, but with the vaccine-programmes being rolled out and the warmer temperatures coming up on the European continent, Manticora have chosen to take the chance and book a tour that will ride the back-end of the great re-opening of the countries.
The tour schedule is as follows:
14/5: Hads Herred Rock festival, Gylling, Denmark
21/5: Sønderborghus, Sønderborg, Denmark
27/5: Turock, Essen, Germany
28/5: TBA
29/5: Podium Duycker, Hoofddorp, The Netherlands
30/5: Hedon, Zwolle, The Netherlands
01/6: South Of Heaven, Bilzen, Belgium
02/6: La Boule Noire, Paris, France
03/6: Rock ‘n Eat, Lyon, France
04/6: Secret Place, Montpellier, France
05/6: Bóveda, Barcelona, Spain
06/6: Caracol, Madrid, Spain
09/6: 7er Club, Mannheim, Germany
10/6: Backstage, Munich, Germany
11/6: TBA
12/6: Progresja, Warsaw, Poland
The tour will see the band, playing their first show ever in Poland as well as a return to some cities, where Manticora haven’t performed for way too many years.
