One of Finland’s leading international metal acts, Beast In Black, will make a spectacular return to the stage at Helsinki Ice Hall on Saturday, December 5, 2026. The heavy metal spectacle Return Of The Beast marks a new chapter in the band’s story as they prepare to unleash a new album. The show will be Beast In Black’s only performance in the Helsinki area in 2026, with gothic rock legends The 69 Eyes and rising act Rabbit Cult also joining the bill. Ticket sales for this unique event begin on Friday, April 24 at 9 AM via Lippu.fi.
Beast In Black founder, songwriter and guitarist Anton Kabanen comments:
“The past years of battling and waiting have felt like endless, excruciating agony, but our beloved fans deserve only the very best between the most brilliant of truths and the darkest unknown. Beast In Black’s new music draws its power from intense emotions and, above all, from stories that demand to be heard. Now it calls for a stage worthy of its scale, one where its raw expression and unprecedented production can shine in full glory. On this historic night in Helsinki, thousands will gather not just to witness it, but to become part of it. Enter the mouth of madness and become one with the music of the Beast.”
In less than ten years, Beast In Black have risen from domestic newcomers to an internationally successful band, building a formidable live reputation on extensive touring, including runs with arena-level acts such as Nightwish and Helloween. The band won the Emma Award for Metal of the Year in 2022 and is now regarded as one of Finland’s most significant music export success stories. Beast In Black’s first two albums, Berserker and From Hell With Love, have both gone platinum in Finland, while their latest album Dark Connection is approaching the same milestone. The band will arrive at Helsinki Ice Hall straight from an extensive European tour in the coming autumn.
The concert is promoted by Fullsteam Agency in cooperation with Radio Rock.
