Live Nation has today announced that American heavy metal band Avenged Sevenfold, are returning to Australia and New Zealand for the first time in 12 years. Known for their spectacular live shows, Avenged Sevenfold will make their long-awaited return with special guests Coheed and Cambria and Thornhill on all tour dates.
The tour kicks off October 16 in Sydney, Australia at Qudos Bank Arena, before heading to the Brisbane Entertainment Centre on October 18 followed by Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne on October 20 before heading to New Zealand to play Auckland’s Spark Arena on October 23.
Tickets go on sale to the public on Friday 17 April at 11am local time.
An artist presale will commence on Wednesday 15 April at 10am running until Friday 17 April at 10am.
Priority tickets will be available first for A7X’s Deathbats Club and Deathbats Rewards Ticketpass holders with their request window opening Tuesday, 14 April at 6:00 am AEST / 8:00 am NZST at https://aua7x.request.
TicketPass is a reward claimed on both band’s new verification-based rewards system, created by Avenged Sevenfold & Bitflips. Deathbat Rewards is a free loyalty program for fans to sign up to by using either an email address or a digital wallet. Rewards members earn points by streaming music, buying merchandise, and attending shows in order to claim various perks once they achieve levels throughout the season.
During the Presale window, fans will use their Dapp wallet (MetaMask, Coinbase, etc.) or email account to authenticate their access and then submit their request for tickets. After the request period closes, they will receive a confirmation email if tickets matching their preferences have been secured. This process will give exclusive access to token-holding fans. By using this platform, the band is protecting proven fans from bots, scalpers, and early dynamic pricing. For more information on the Token-Gated Sales platform see HERE.
