„We Will Folk You“
Svbway to Sally celebrate the Eisheilige Nacht festivals in December since 2009 because they toured in December every year. So why not expand it into an indoor festival tour? And so, here we are again in 2026, with nine concerts altogether in Germany and one in Switzerland, the opener. As another tradition, the finale will of course take place in Potsdam. We will report on the start of the tour at Z7 Konzertfabrik in Pratteln on 11th December! As usual Svbway to Sally will be joined by three more bands:
The opener joins the Eisheilige Nacht for the first time. We watched them at Rockharz Festival last July as Friday’s closer and were really impressed by SAINT CITY ORCHESTRA convincing with a brilliant folk metal show. These Swiss musicians will not only raise the mood high, but their technical skills will also set a benchmark for the other three bands.
The second band is a well-known guest, MANNTRA from Croatia, one of the rising stars of the genre during the past years. They had been part of the tour in 2023 and since then became more popular year by year. Thus, they are meanwhile far away from being a “support band only” but headline their own sold-out tours. Let’s hope for some songs of “Wild Hunt”, to be released at Christmas 26.
Talking about the co-headliner is like bringing owls to Athens “Tis glauk’ Athénaz’ égagen”. Irish Speedfolk rules when FIDDLER’S GREEN will enter the stage. As Manntra they joined the tour in 2023 but of course not for the first time. This year marks their fifth performance and you can be sure; as usual, the band will folk you as if there is no tomorrow.
SVBWAY TO SALLY, of course, are the headlining hosts. Do I really need to write anything about them again? Everyone should know these medieval and folk metal veterans around Eric Fish. Expect their powerful classic songs, sometimes performed in a different way than you know, sometimes a bit more puristic, sometimes a bit more metallic but for sure very atmospheric.
Eisheilige Nacht 2026 will be so much more than “just another” concert or a tour. The festival will be a feast for the senses, or as the bands already declared, “We Will Folk You”. Once again, it will be a gathering of four befriended bands and the audience on and in front of the stage. The Eisheilige Nacht festivals will gently ease us into the Christmas and New Year period. Get your tickets now – some venues are almost sold out!
