Bring Me The Horizon to Celebrate 20 Years of ‘Count Your Blessings’ in Manchester
“Possibly the most requested and mythologised single show of the last decade,” stated the organisers regarding the upcoming performance by Bring Me The Horizon at Manchester’s B.E.C. Arena. On July 10, 2026, the band will celebrate the 20th anniversary of their debut album, ‘Count Your Blessings’, by performing it in full for the first time.
This one-off event is not part of a larger tour but is instead a standalone summer celebration, co-curated with Outbreak Festival. The significance of this performance is underscored by the band’s historical impact on the heavy music scene, having sold over 7.2 million albums worldwide since their inception.
‘Count Your Blessings’, originally released in 2006, played a crucial role in bringing extreme metal to a wider audience. The re-recorded version, titled ‘Count Your Blessings | Repented’, is set to be released on the same day as the performance, marking a significant moment for both the band and their fans.
Support acts for the show will include Static Dress, Rolo Tomassi, Dying Wish, Heriot, Car Underwater, and Still In Love, creating a diverse lineup that reflects the band’s influence across various genres. Tickets for this highly anticipated event will go on sale on April 17, 2026, and demand is expected to be high.
The excitement surrounding this event is palpable, with fans reminiscing about the band’s earlier work. A Reddit commenter noted, “Ain’t no way BMTH are marketing the Count Your Blessings 20th anniversary, would be absolutely wild if they started playing ‘Pray for Plagues’ again,” highlighting the nostalgic anticipation among the fanbase.
As the date approaches, the event is expected to celebrate not only the album’s legacy but also the band’s ongoing evolution in the music industry. Details remain unconfirmed regarding any special surprises or additional announcements leading up to the show.
