August Burns Red & The Amity Affliction in Worcester, MA – April 10, 2026

August Burns Red and The Amity Affliction kicked off their co-headlining Spring Horizons Tour on Friday night, with a powerful show at the Worcester Palladium. Featuring support from Boundaries, and Dreamwake, the tour will be running through May 17, as they zigzag across the country.

Boundaries and Dreamwake helped warm up the room early with heavy, fast-paced sets before the co-headliners took over. When August Burns Red hit the stage, they delivered a tight, technically sharp performance with strong crowd engagement. They had big circle pits, constant movement, and a polished live sound that stood out as one of the night’s highlights. Their mix of older staples and newer material kept longtime fans and newer listeners equally locked in.

The Amity Affliction brought a more emotional but still intense set, balancing melodic choruses with heavy breakdowns. Their performance leaned into crowd singalongs and atmosphere, giving the show a different dynamic compared to ABR’s precision-driven set.

Overall, the show had the feel of a strong tour kickoff: energetic crowd, solid turnout, and a good balance between aggression and melody across the lineup. As the first date of the tour, it set a high bar for the rest of the run.
