Raise your banners — HammerFall are riding back across the Atlantic in 2026 for a full North American assault.
The Freedom World Crusade begins this September, bringing the Swedish power-metal titans to cities across the U.S. and Canada with support from prog-power architects Evergrey and folk-metal spellcasters Elvenking.
Before the crusade officially kicks off, all three bands unite for a special pre-battle gathering at ProgPower USA on September 11th in Atlanta — a fitting launchpad for the campaign ahead.
