German symphonic metal act Xandria will bring their signature fusion of orchestral majesty and crushing riffage to Manchester Academy on Friday 18 September 2026. The setlist draws from their extensive catalogue of gothic-tinged anthems, featuring soaring female vocals layered over relentless double bass drumming and operatic choir passages. Support comes from US progressive metallers Seven Spires, alongside the melodic gloom of Tulip, ensuring a full evening of theatrical, high-energy metal. The venue’s combination of standing floor and balcony seating allows the sound to fill the room with clarity, from the quietest piano breakdown to the most thunderous guitar crescendo. Tickets are priced at £23.00, with doors opening at 7pm.

🎤 Performer
Xandria is a German symphonic metal band founded in 1994 by Marco Heubaum. Initially started as a project, it was reformed as a full band in 1999 after a brief disbandment. Heubaum remained the main composer throughout its history, while the band underwent numerous lineup changes, particularly in the role of lead vocalist. The band’s debut album, "Kill the Sun" (2003), featured vocalist Lisa Middelhauve (née Schaphaus), who also contributed to songwriting.
