Escape The Fate have been ripping up stages across the globe for more than two decades. First helmed by Ronnie Radke, the current vocalist, Craig Mabbitt, has been front and centre since 2008, the year Escape The Fate broke through with This War Is Ours.
Since then, the quartet have released a further six albums, with their most recent being 2023’s Out of the Shadows, and firmly established themselves as one of the world’s most popular post-hardcore outfits.
Support act The World Alive have built a loyal fanbase with their metalcore compositions, having released seven albums, with their last LP Hard Reset arriving in 2023.
