This fall, shock rock legend Alice Cooper and heavy metal trailblazers Judas Priest will share the stage for an epic co-headlining tour across North America. Produced by Live Nation, the tour includes a stop at Hartford HealthCare Amphitheater in Bridgeport, CT, on September 23, 2025.

Coming off the second leg of their Invincible Shield Tour and the release of their celebrated 19th studio album, Judas Priest remains a dominant force in metal. Meanwhile, Alice Cooper, the godfather of theatrical rock, wraps up his “Too Close For Comfort” tour this summer, promoting his most recent “Road” album, and will have an as-yet-unnamed all-new show for this tour. Corrosion of Conformity will join as support on select dates.

Tickets will go on sale on Friday, May 30 at 10 AM at LiveNation.com.

Alice Cooper is widely recognized as the godfather of shock rock, combining horror theatrics with classic hard rock anthems. With a career spanning over five decades, he continues to tour globally, delivering elaborate stage shows that defy expectations. From Love It to Death to Detroit Stories, Cooper’s influence on rock, film, and culture remains unmatched.
