Wintersun - Co-Headlining 2015 Paganfest With Turisas

The Paganfest tour is heading out for the seventh time next year and the Finns Wintersun will be co-headlining the trek with Turisas. You can mark your calendars for March 2015. Wintersun will team up with their Finnish comrades Turisas to form the headlining-duo of the upcoming tour. Three other acts will join the normal tour dates and three more will take part in the extended shows. See the tour dates below!

Dutch folksters Heidevolk are the next addition to the billing, presenting their new album as well as tons of band classics. Support acts are the Viking black metallers Obscurity and the epic folk metallers Frosttide.

The Paganfest Extended Shows have always been the absolute highlights of the Paganfest tours throughout all these years. In 2015, folk metal superstars Korpiklaani will add a spicy bunch of folk metal to the bill. They are joined by Hannover's finest Grailknights, who add some melodic death/power metal. Last but definitely not least, German Finsterforst complete the Paganfest 2015 billing.

Tickets are on sale now at this location.
