The Great Nola Trendkill
Festival date added to close HERAKLEION Fall tour
It's been a while since Herakleion has played New Orleans. Spending a great deal of 2026 on the road and writing their first full-length album has left little opportunity for hometown shows. That will change on November 20-21, as the band joins The Great Nola Trendkill at UNO Lakefront Arena.
The festival features some of the biggest bands ever to come out of the New Orleans metal scene.
The venue has come as a surprise to many, but for all involved, it makes perfect sense. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, UNO Lakefront Arena was the stop for all of metal's heaviest hitters coming to New Orleans.
Artist Presale: September 8, 12PM CST.

Herakleion's Fall tourture '26
Herakleion heads out for its final tour of 2026 with with 22 dates across the eastern US. Raleigh's Deceptor will join for a stretch of dates on the second half of the tour, which concludes with a homecoming show at the UNO Lakefront Arena in New Orleans, in November.
LIVE THROUGH ETERNITY Gets DVD Release
Herakleion's viciously intense live album, Live Through Eternity, will be released on March 10, 2026. Originally released on cassette and compact disc in September of 2025, the DVD release marks a first for the band.
Supporting Obituary at Chelsea's Live in Baton Rouge on April 17th of 2025, Herakleion set out to capture their live set with the assistance of video producer Matt Hathcox and audio engineer Paul Emden. The result sees the band laying down the gauntlet for both legend and newcomer, alike. This is HERAKLEION, live and seething!
"Live Through Eternity" is available here in the Herakleion shop, and at all stops on their Spring US tour.
