Blind Guardian Brings The Somewhere Far Beyond Tour To The Underground in Charlotte

Blind Guardian closed out 2025 with an epic tour. The Somewhere Far Beyond North American Tour was unleashed on November 19, 2025 in Ft Lauderdale, FL and officially came to a close on December 13, 2025 in Los Angeles, CA. The band filled venues all across North America on this tour with back to back sold-out shows almost every single night.

We were so excited to catch one of these incredible nights when Blind Guardian rolled into The Underground at The Fillmore Charlotte back on November 22, 2025. Even on a cold November evening, fans were standing in line well in advance of the show to get into this general admission room and be a part of this special night.

Seven Kingdoms got the show started and already had fans headbanging to every tune. Shortly after, Ensiferum hit the stage and treated the packed Charlotte crowd to an awesome set! When Blind Guardian hit the stage, the quickly launched into “Into The Storm” off 1998’s Nightfall in Middle-Earth. The band played a few favorite tracks from previous albums before starting into Somewhere Far Beyond. They played their full 1992 release in it’s entirety, starting with “Time What Is Time” and continuing to treat fans to the full album beginning to end. Fans were singing along all night of course anticipating which track was coming next.

At the end of the night, Blind Guardian came back out on stage for an awesome encore including fan favorites, like “Valhalla” and “Mirror Mirror” before closing out the show. Check out some live pics from their set that night taken below.
