Announces (sic)est Stadium Tour
October 1st, 2026 by Derek Tobias
Slipknot has officially announced the (sic)est Stadium Tour, a massive worldwide stadium production set to dominate 2027.
The tour launches July 3rd at London’s historic Wembley Stadium and spans the globe with North American, South American, and European dates, marking one of the most ambitious tours in the band’s nearly three-decade career.
To make this tour even more insane, Slipknot has recruited Bring Me the Horizon as direct support on all North American dates, a massive partnership that underscores the scale and prestige of this production.
BMTH’s inclusion signals the caliber of this tour: two of modern rock’s most innovative and dynamic bands sharing a bill across the continent’s biggest stages. The tour also features a rotating cast of special guests including Acid Bath, Lamb of God, Motionless in White, Lorna Shore, Kublai Khan TX, Polyphia, Loathe, and Vended.
Slipknot has promised a brand-new set, revolutionary staging, and a setlist spanning their entire career.
This is positioned as the ultimate Slipknot experience to date, nearly three decades of crushing performances distilled into an unprecedented live spectacle.
For Southern California fans, Slipknot brings the spectacle to SoFi Stadium in Inglewood on August 13th, 2027, with Bring Me the Horizon on direct support and Loathe as a special guest.
But LA fans had something even more special on September 28th: an exclusive launch event where they celebrated the tour announcement in real time.
Hundreds of fans gathered at SoFi Stadium for early ticket access and a once-in-a-lifetime moment, witnessing a 30-foot-high flaming Slipknot tribal S symbol ignited against the sunset.
It was a visceral, unmissable celebration of the band’s return to the biggest stages. More importantly for eager fans: they secured tickets before the rest of the world, getting first dibs on the best seats before artist presales and general on sale went live.
The LA event reflected what makes Slipknot unique in heavy metal. They didn’t just announce a tour via press release or put up a few billboards; they brought fans together in person to light the fire, literally and figuratively.
For those who were there, it was a reminder that this band still commands the loyalty and excitement they’ve built over 28 years, and that the (sic)est Stadium Tour is going to be unmissable.
General ticket on sale is tomorrow at 10 a.m. local time. Grab your mask and get ready to rock – loud!
