Melodic death metal heroes Arch Enemy have announced a North American tour to take place next Spring - and they're bringing a pretty stacked support bill with them.

"We can't wait to reconnect with our amazing North American fans this spring," says the band's founding guitarist Michael Amott. "We're bringing Fit For An Autopsy, Baest and Thrown Into Exile along for the ride. Prepare for an unforgettable night of pure metal mayhem. See you soon!"

The impressive 25-date trek will kick off on April 14 in San Diego, California at the Observatory North Park before heading across the West Coast, through Canada and back into the United States, popping up into East Canada before finishing up back in the States and wrapping up at Milwaukee Metal Fest on May 18. See the full set of dates below.

Arch Enemy are set for a busy 2025 with that North American run, a European tour in the Autumn and a brand new studio album, Blood Dynasty, landing March 28 via Century Media.
