Bullet For My Valentine have announced details of their largest ever UK tour to date.
The Welsh rock band, who released their fourth album Temper Temper in March, played a series of sold out UK shows in spring and have since played sold out tours in America and across Europe. The band will appear as second headliners on the Main Stage at Download festival today, and will then play the following arena shows in December, playing to over 65,000 fans, including a massive hometown show in Cardiff, as part of their “Rule Britannia” UK tour.
Matt Tuck, vocalist/guitars, said:”The boys and I are excited to announce that we will be once again crushing arenas all over the UK this December. In 2010 we got our first taste of headlining arenas and it was mind blowing, this time around it’s gonna be louder, crazier and we’ll be bringing more pyro than ever!! Make sure you get your tickets and be part of ‘The’ tour of 2013, see ya there, ROCK!”
The UK tour will also see Bullet supported by two of the hottest properties in UK rock, Asking Alexandria and Young Guns.
Asking Alexandra said: “It’s been a dream of ours to tour arenas around the UK for a long time and the fact that it’s happening with a bunch of cool guys that like to drink as much as we do is fucking brilliant. Rock on, drink on, game on!”
Young Guns said: “We’re honoured to have been asked to support bullet for my valentine on their upcoming UK arena run. Having just spent 2 months with them in the USA we know firsthand how great they are live and we’re excited to see them bring it on stages as big as these are. As for us, these are going to be some of the largest shows we’ve ever played and we can’t wait to get out there! We’ll be fresh out of the studio and desperate to get back out there again, so see you all in December!”
