Avenged Sevenfold to Perform at Jakarta Stadium October

RRI.CO.ID, Jakarta - Driven by a strong personal desire to reconnect with one of their largest global fanbases, California heavy metal titans Avenged Sevenfold (A7X) are set to descend upon the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) on October 10, 2026.

As reported by Antara, the upcoming "Avenged Sevenfold Live in Indonesia" showcase marks a surprisingly swift return for the band following their massive 2024 performance. This return stems from direct negotiations where the artists themselves pushed for a Jakarta date.

Ravel Junardy, the founder of Ravel Entertainment, revealed during a press conference on Tuesday, March 31, 2026, that securing the band for this encore visit was an effortless endeavor.

"It was actually them who really wanted to come here, and they promised to bring something very special," Ravel shared, highlighting the deep bond between the band and the local "Deathbats" community.

This official confirmation follows weeks of digital breadcrumbs dropped by frontman Matt Shadows. He recently sent social media into a frenzy by teasing fans within the "Indonesian Chat" community on Discord.

The ticketing structure for the high-octane event caters to various tiers, starting at IDR 665,000 (USD 38.99) for CAT 3 and peaking at IDR 2.55 million (USD 149.51) for the premier Festival A section. Organizers are prioritizing the spectator experience over maximum profit, aiming for a target of 40,000 tickets despite the stadium's larger footprint.

"The capacity of JIS is 40,000, but we are still looking at how many tickets will be sold, likely up to 40,000. We don't want to use the full capacity because we want everyone to have a good viewing spot," conveyed Ravel.

Enthusiasts can secure their entry during the "Deathbat Pre-Sale" in April 6, followed by the "General Sale" on April 8. This 2026 appearance serves as a victory lap for the band in a territory that has become a cornerstone of their Asian tours.

While A7X famously ended a long hiatus in 2024 after not visiting since 2015, this new October date cements Indonesia’s status as a top-tier destination for the heavy metal legends. ***
