Canadian heavy music pioneers Kittie are out on the road celebrating three decades of uncompromising metal with the “Legacy Of Fire Tour: 30 Years of Kittie,” a 16-date North American headline run and their first full headline tour in over ten years. The trek honors 30 years since the band’s formation in 1996, and it rides the momentum of recent triumphs including 2024’s critically acclaimed comeback album ‘Fire’ and 2025’s ‘Spit XXV,’ a re-recorded and re-imagined anniversary EP. Kingdom of Giants and Gore join as special guests across all dates.
The band is fired up about the milestone. “We’re excited to announce our Legacy of Fire tour on the eve of our 30th anniversary as a band. Thirty years ago, we ignited a spark. Three decades later, that fire is still burning, stronger and more focused than ever. Legacy of Fire is a celebration of every stage, every struggle, and every fan who carried us forward. Coming back to the US + Canada for our first full headline tour over a decade feels incredible. We’re ready to honor our history while ushering in the next chapter,” they share.
The tour arrives during Kittie’s most successful era in over a decade. Since returning from hiatus in 2022, the band has experienced a remarkable resurgence, with ‘Fire’ reaching #13 on the UK Rock & Metal Albums charts and earning a 2025 Juno Award nomination for Metal/Hard Music Album of the Year. Their ‘Spit XXV’ EP further proved the original album’s enduring relevance, with Rolling Stone having ranked the original title track #82 on their “100 Greatest Heavy Metal Songs of All Time.”
With 843,000 monthly Spotify listeners spanning multiple generations and festival performances at Sick New World, Welcome to Rockville, Sonic Temple, Louder Than Life, ShipRocked, and Aftershock, Kittie have proven their relevance reaches well beyond nostalgia. The 30-year milestone stands as a testament to the band’s lasting impact on heavy music, and the “Legacy Of Fire Tour” celebrates their entire catalog, from huge hits to deep cuts, with Kingdom of Giants and Gore rounding out a powerhouse bill each night.
