Sabaton on Tour

There's a very good reason that Swedish metal band Sabaton have been nominated multiple times for Best Live Band at the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards. In concert, the group are a well-oiled riffing machine driven by thrashing guitars, epic keyboards and punishing drums. Charismatic vocalist Joakim Brodén, meanwhile, encourages the crowd's enthusiasm and the aggression around him onstage like a cool-under-fire circus ringmaster. The resulting show feels like an ecstatic communal experience in which audience members are bonded together by the (very metal) mayhem.

Sabaton have toured with acts such as DragonForce and HammerFall bringing venues like The Fillmore (Detroit) and The Fillmore (Minneapolis) to capacity, and appeared at major events such as the UK's Download Festival. The band also did a 20th-anniversary celebration gig at the 2019 Wacken Open Air festival that featured special appearances from multiple former members. And, since 2008, the band have thrown their own Sabaton Open Air festival, which features a packed lineup of hard rock and metal bands in addition to a unique Sabaton headlining gig. 

Sabaton in Concert

Formed in 1999, Sabaton have pushed Swedish metal forward into remarkable new directions. Across their career, the band have specialized in well-researched lyrics rooted in world history and military-related events, including 2019's "Bismarck," a tune named after (and inspired by) the epic German battleship that sank in spring 1941. 

Sabaton have also released several albums inspired by great works (for example, Sun Tzu's legendary book The Art of War inspired 2008's The Art of War) and important events: 2012's Carolus Rex is all about the Swedish empire's ill-fated existence, while World War I informed the concept of 2019's The Great War. Although Sabaton are frequently considered to be power metal, their music isn't easily pigeonholed. Their majestic guitar melodies and intricate solos echo heavy metal greats of the 1980s and '90s, while the cinematic keyboards and slick production conjure symphonic metal's theatrical bent.

  • Excellent show!

    by P. K. on 11/27/22Rating: 5 out of 5

    Sabaton never fails to give a marvelous show! Every time i see them i love them even more.

  • Awesome Time Going to Hell and Back with Sabaton!

    by Tommy on 11/17/22MGM Music Hall at Fenway - BostonRating: 5 out of 5

    Sabaton is one of the most fun bands I have ever seen live! They perform their songs flawlessly, but you can tell that they have a ton of fun with each other and a great time performing for their audiences as well, which just makes their shows even more fun! Their props and stage decorations really add an amazing atmosphere as well that brings the wars discussed in their songs to life. Go see Sabaton if you haven't and go see them again if you have!

  • Awesome band but acoustics is far from the best

    by Michael R on 11/13/22MGM Music Hall at Fenway - BostonRating: 4 out of 5

    It was absolutely great to see Sabaton live! However, the sound effects at the venue were not favorable for many songs. Noise was enhanced too strongly and overall volume was uncomfortably high. Stadium concerts I was at before felt better.

  • Sabaton truly Rocks

    by Ann on 11/12/22Rating: 5 out of 5

    Sabaton was amazing, so much energy They were better than the main act. I’d see Sabaton again if given the chance

    The music, the sound system, the way they worked with the crowd, best concert of the past year

  • Best concert yet

    by Army Ranger on 10/26/22Fillmore Minneapolis - MinneapolisRating: 5 out of 5

    Getting the VIP tickets to the Sabaton show was 100% worth the cost and wait, they knew how to work the crowd and put on one hell of a show. Will be going to see them again next year.

  • Awesome show!

    by JerseyBrooke on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

  • Great night

    by Dieguito49 on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Every time that I see this band you know it’s gonna be a magical experience if you are not good in history don’t need to eat thousands of books you just come to one sabaton show and you will learn a lot of pretty good stories about war and of course with good music

  • Great show venue not organized

    by Bronx Broad on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 4 out of 5

    Show was great venue needs to be better organized. It took over 1-1/2 yo get everyone in the door. Your selection of beverages have a lot to be desired. I don’t drink soda just wanted seltzer water not a hard seltzer so I drank water. Ice tea, seltzer water would be appreciated.

  • Sabaton never fails to impress, this time was no different,

    by Amazing show at a wonderful venue on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    The venue is huge, sound was amazing. It was a wonderful night

  • Detroit Filmore

    by Shadyswizz on 10/26/22The Fillmore Detroit - DetroitRating: 5 out of 5

    Seeing this band in concert made them my ultimate favorite band. Usually I’m more into classic rock and metal but this band really has something special. Forever obsessed with this group of talent.

  • Really good performance by both bands

    by ChrisJC on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 4 out of 5

    Went with my son as he is a huge Sabaton fan. Both bands were really tight and gave great performances. Sound mix on Epica was a bit off as the female singer was buried quite a bit and the boominess of the kick drum was just a bit overdone, even for that genre of music. Saboton's mix was noticeably better. I was surprised that, since it was the last show of the tour, that they didn't do an encore. Music ended at 11pm and that was it! As for the venue, the sound was decent, but seating was horrendous. We chose to get seats in the balcony rather than stand on the floor. The 'seats' at the Hammerstein were literally hotel banquet chairs stuffed 2 deep into what should have been single seat rows. There was zero leg room and the chairs were right up against each other in the row. I'm surprised the fire Marshall didn't have an issue with that.

  • My favorite concert so far

    by Neil on 10/26/22MGM Music Hall at Fenway - BostonRating: 5 out of 5

    Venue was amazing sound was awesome first time seeing sabaton will be going to future concerts of sabaton and at the mgm music hall

  • Amazing

    by Casey M on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    The show was amazing! Sabaton and Epica both sounded awesome. Great show, great venue.

  • Horrible sound

    by Peter on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 1 out of 5

    This was one of the worst shows in my recent memory. The sound was so bass heavy like if the guitar players and the singer never even entered the stage. I somehow suffered through Epica but when Sabaton entered the stage and the sounded the same I left right after Ghost Division. It's a shame. I really looked forward to this show.

  • One of the best metal shows I've ever been to.

    by Hayatetst on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    The sound was amazing, both Epica and Sabaton were on point. It was a fun experience.

  • Awesome

    by Tony D on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Best ever, especially when I got to share this experience with my son. Who also had a great time

  • Could not have asked for a better concert

    by Cat on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Had an incredible night, really fun and I can't wait to see them again :D Worth mentioning the funny appearance Epica made when they came out on stage at the end of the show.

  • Amazing Show

    by Kenny on 10/26/22Manhattan Center Hammerstein Ballroom - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    This was the last show of Sabaton’s US tour & it was obvious they were having a great time. They put on an awesome show & really used the screen in the background to their advantage. They even had a couple of costume changes. The relative intimacy of the venue lent itself to the show really well. The entire set was very high energy, the pit was amazing & everyone in it was really nice. Me & mine had a fantastic time. Would 100% recommend.
