Dutch symphonic metallers EPICA will play their one thousandth concert on Saturday, April 14, 2018, in Tilburg, The Netherlands.

After its recent sold-out shows in The Netherlands, EPICA is more than proud to announce it will perform this milestone event at the legendary 013 venue, the exact same place where it all started for the band sixteen years ago.

Rest assured that this night will be celebrated the right way as EPICA invited some very special guests to make sure this night will be remembered. Danish metal sensation MYRKUR and American progressive metallers OCEANS OF SLUMBER are already confirmed, and more guests are still to be announced.

EPICA singer Simone Simons says: "Back in 2002, we could have never imagined that one day we'd be playing our thousandth live show. This couldn't have happened without the support of our dearest and most loyal EPICA legion, so in order to make this an unforgettable night, We've invited some very cool guests to perform with us."

Adds guitarist Mark Jansen: "I remember our very first show at 013, Tilburg as if it was yesterday. Back then we were supporting ANATHEMA, but now sixteen years later, we'll have the honour to be celebrating our thousandth show at the same venue as headliners. We could have never achieved this without the support of our loyal fans, so we definitely wanted to make this an amazing night to celebrate all together with also some very cool special guests. We hope to see you all in Tilburg."

Early-bird tickets will be available from Saturday, November 4 at 11:00 a.m. You can also purchase a special ticket bundle which includes an exclusive t-shirt of this show.
