Saxon bring the Hell, Fire And Steel to the Ulster Hall, Belfast on 04 November 2025!
Saxon are extremely excited to announce a full Hell, Fire and Steel UK & Ireland Tour which will see the band perform songs from their new album Hell, Fire and Damnation as well as playing their classic album Wheels of Steel in full, from start to finish, for the last time as well as all the other hits and fan favourites too.Also, so as to make it even more special, Saxon have invited their great friend the legend that is Dirkschneider, formerly of Accept, to perform his classic album Balls to the Wall in its entirety too which should make for one hell of a memorable and unique night.
Saxon’s Biff Byford says, “We first toured with UDO and Accept in the U.S.A on our Crusader tour and have done lots of stuff together since, but we have never toured the UK together so this is gonna be epic. Balls to the Wall and Wheels of Steel under the same roof… it’ going to be something really special to witness. Bring it on!”
Saxon’s groundbreaking album Wheels of Steel has been heavily cited by numerous journalists as one of those classic albums that every metal fan should own. Jam-packed with seminal songs and chunky riffs from the opening high octane belting riff of “Motorcycle Man”, Wheels of Steel (the album) packs a punch from start to finish. From the infectious and arguably the biggest riff of hit single “747 (Strangers in the Night)” through to the more stripped-down crunchy tour de force of title track “Wheels of Steel”. This is a one-off not to be missed opportunity to see one of metal’s best albums played from start to finish in all its glory for the very last time.
Hell, Fire and Damnation is a superlative British Heavy Metal classic. Produced by Andy Sneap (Judas Priest, Exodus, Accept and Priest guitarist) and Biff Byford, with Sneap mixing and mastering, the album strides the perfect line between confident, current power, and gloriously irreverent flexing of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal muscle which Saxon co-created.
