Judas Priest Announce 2025 UK Dates Including Alice Cooper Co-Headliner

Celebrating the 35th anniversary of ‘Painkiller’ Judas Priest will join forces with Alice Cooper for a co-headline UK concert in summer 2025.

Two of rock and metal’s biggest names, Judas Priest and Alice Cooper will play a very special one-off show in front of 20,000 fans at London’s The O2 on Friday 25th July 2025.

On Wednesday 23rd July 2025, Judas Priest will also headline TK Maxx presents Scarborough Open Air Theatre where they will be joined by special guest Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons.

The two shows are the only UK dates Judas Priest will be playing next summer, and the metal legends will celebrate the 35th anniversary of their seminal album ‘Painkiller’ at the gigs.

Alice Cooper and Judas Priest are touring mainland Europe next summer, and they’re both special guests at Scorpions 60th anniversary concert at Heinz von Heiden Arena in Hamburg on Saturday 5th July.

Released on 14th September 1990, ‘Painkiller’ was met with widespread critical acclaim upon its release, and it’s still regarded as one of Judas Priest’s finest records.
