Get ready, metal maniacs — a once-in-a-lifetime experience is about to hit the road. Judas Priest, one of the most iconic and enduring bands in the history of heavy metal, has officially announced the launch of the “Judas Priest Rock Camp,” a multi-city, fan-driven event series designed to immerse participants in the world of heavy metal through workshops, jam sessions, exclusive performances, and unforgettable encounters with the legends themselves.

The Rock Camp will take place in six major cities across North America, kicking off in Los Angeles on September 18, 2025, and concluding in New York City on October 26, 2025. Each four-day event will feature members of Judas Priest — including Rob Halford, Ian Hill, Richie Faulkner, Scott Travis, and Andy Sneap — sharing their decades of experience with fans, musicians, and aspiring rockers.

A Metal Dream Come True

In partnership with Rock ‘n’ Roll Fantasy Camp, the Judas Priest Rock Camp brings fans closer than ever to the band’s powerful legacy. From songwriting seminars and gear tutorials to live Q&A sessions and performance coaching, this is more than just a meet-and-greet — it’s a deep dive into the heart and soul of true British heavy metal.

In a video announcement posted to the band’s social media channels, frontman Rob Halford shared his excitement:

“This is our way of giving back to the fans and helping shape the next generation of metal. Whether you’re a guitarist, drummer, bassist, or just a die-hard headbanger, we want you to come and be a part of this loud, proud, and very metal experience.”

Rock Camp Features: What to Expect

Participants of the Judas Priest Rock Camp can expect a heavy-hitting schedule packed with:

• Masterclasses with the Band – Learn directly from Halford’s legendary vocal range, Faulkner’s shredding technique, Travis’s thunderous drumming, and Sneap’s studio wizardry.
