SEPULTURA have announced their plans to celebrate their 40th anniversary with a global “farewell tour”. The tour, titled “Celebrating Life Through Death”, will kick off in March 2024 and span over 18 months.

This tour has been in the works for two years and is expected to be a memorable event in the band’s history. SEPULTURA‘s farewell tour will commence with shows in Brazil and will subsequently include performances in Latin America and the United States.

The band has also hinted at the possibility of announcing more tour dates in the near future.

Band comments:

“After four decades filled with ups and downs, having visited 80 countries and countless different cultures, we’ve had the chance to become Brazil’s messenger to the world and spread our colors and rhythms worldwide. With our latest studio album ‘Quadra’, a highlight of our career, we added an unforgettable chapter followed by the ‘SepulQuarta’ experience that helped us to overcome the difficult times of the pandemic together. We will unite our forces for one final, strong farewell. And all of you can be a part of it.

“During this 40th anniversary tour, we will record 40 live tracks in 40 different cities and release a massive compilation of our best, most energetic moments on stage.

“We are happy and very grateful for everything we could witness within the past four decades. We have released great albums and played unforgettable shows, cultivated friendships, met our idols, contributed to placing Brazilian metal on the world map, and therefore feel that we can leave the music scene with a sense of duty fulfilled.

“We’ve always had the best fans in the world, who supported us with praise and criticism, who were demanding and intelligent, who grew together with the band and have always been loyal. Without you, none of this would have been possible. This album and this tour are for you. Dear SepulNation — we love you and always will!

“Euthanasia, the right to a dignified death. The right to choose to live free and to choose when you die!”
