The Redeemer of Souls Tour was a worldwide concert tour by British heavy metal band Judas Priest. It was in support of their latest studio album Redeemer of Souls. It was also their first tour since the conclusion of the Epitaph World Tour in 2012, which was originally dubbed as a farewell tour; the band has since retracted that statement.
The 2016 release Battle Cry features the band's performance recorded at Wacken Open Air on 1 August 2015.

The tour featured material from Redeemer of Souls for the first time. It also coincided with the 30th anniversary of the release of Defenders of the Faith and so the band played a number of songs from that album that hadn't been played since the mid-1980s.
