Riot V: 50 Years of Heavy Metal at DownTown Live

About the event

Riot V, the American heavy metal stalwarts carrying the torch for Riot, are back in Cyprus on their Hail To The Warriors Tour, marking fifty years since the band began. Riot's story runs from 1975 through the early records and the landmark Thundersteel era, and the setlist is built to visit every chapter. The band keeps alive the legacy of founding guitarist Mark Reale and last played this same stage in 2024. Cypriot metallers House of Treason open the night with material from their 2025 album Alarm and this year's Origins. The show starts at 8pm.
