Polish death metal veterans Vader are heading back to Australia this November, bringing a set built around two defining releases from their catalogue.
Updated November 5th, 2026: Vader have added The Black Wreath in Alice Springs on Saturday, November 28th. Tickets for the new show are coming soon.
Presented by Hardline Media, the Reign Forever Australia 2026 tour will hit Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney and Alice Springs across four consecutive nights from November 25th to 28th. The shows will see Vader revisit material from 2000 releases Litany and the Reign Forever World EP.
It’s a pairing that lands squarely in one of the band’s most relentless periods. Litany, Vader’s fourth studio album, arrived in 2000 and included tracks such as Wings, Xeper, Cold Demons and the title track. Reign Forever World followed later that year, combining new material with covers and live recordings.
More than four decades into their career, Vader remain one of Poland’s most enduring extreme metal exports. Formed in 1983 and led by vocalist and guitarist Piotr “Peter” Wiwczarek, the band have built an extensive catalogue while maintaining a formidable international touring schedule.
The November run will also mark another Australian visit for the band following their 2023 tour alongside fellow Polish acts Hate and Thy Disease.
For fans attending the Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney shows, extremely limited VIP meet-and-greet packages are also available. Packages include entry to the show, a meeting and photo with the band, an Australian tour poster that can be signed, a VIP laminate and lanyard, early access to the merchandise stand and the opportunity to have three personal items signed.
Tickets and VIP packages for Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney are on sale now. Tickets for the new Alice Springs show are coming soon through Hardline Media.
