AVATAR’S “A NIGHT TO BE TORN APART” TOUR COMES TO GLASGOW THIS WEEK
Swedish metal band Avatar bring their high-energy “A Night To Be Torn Apart” tour to Glasgow’s Barrowland Ballroom on Monday 16 February 2026. Known for delivering tight, punchy riffs paired with big, memorable choruses and a commanding stage presence, Avatar consistently put on shows that feel both powerful and engaging from start to finish. Their live performances strike the right balance between heavy intensity and melodic hooks, making them standouts on the current metal scene.
Frontman Johannes Eckerström leads the live charge with conviction, backed by a band that’s sharp and focused — you can expect a set that’s full of moments that hit hard and keep the energy high throughout. The Barrowland’s atmosphere suits this perfectly, turning each song into a shared experience with the crowd as the band works through a mix of favourites and newer material.
For anyone who loves metal that’s full-bodied and played with passion, this Glasgow date should be a highlight of the winter gig calendar.
