Slipknot announces "(sic)est Stadium Tour" 2027: North American dates, presales and tickets

The worldwide run begins in July 2027 and moves from London's Wembley Stadium through North America before finishing with a series of South American shows in September. Slipknot is promising new staging and a career-spanning setlist, while Bring Me The Horizon will join every North American date alongside a rotating lineup of some of heavy music's biggest names.

Who is opening for Slipknot on the "(sic)est Stadium Tour"?

Slipknot is bringing a deep lineup of metal and hardcore acts on the road, but the exact bill changes from city to city. Bring Me The Horizon serves as direct support on every North American date. One of the biggest heavy bands to emerge from the 2000s, the Sheffield group has evolved from its metalcore roots into an arena-sized mix of metal, electronic music and alternative rock.

Rotating North American support comes from Acid Bath, Lamb of God, Motionless In White, Lorna Shore, Kublai Khan TX, Polyphia, Loathe and Vended, meaning fans should check their individual show before arriving to see which acts are on the bill.

For the July 3 Wembley Stadium opener, Slipknot will be joined by Marilyn Manson, Lorna Shore and Hatebreed. Marilyn Manson and Hatebreed also join Slipknot for the four standalone South American shows following the band's Sept. 4 appearance at The Town in São Paulo, with additional local support.

What to expect at Slipknot's "(sic)est Stadium Tour"

Slipknot has confirmed that the stadium run will feature new staging and a career-spanning setlist, giving the band room to build a show specifically for venues of this scale.

• Production and staging should be one of the biggest changes. Slipknot's concerts have long relied on elaborate lighting, masks, elevated platforms, percussion rigs and pyrotechnics. Moving that experience into stadiums gives the band considerably more room to expand the visual side of the show.

• Energy and atmosphere will still depend heavily on where you sit. General-admission and pit areas at Slipknot concerts can be intensely physical, with moshing and significant crowd movement. Reserved stadium seating offers more space while giving fans a wider view of the stage and production.

• The setlist is expected to span Slipknot's career rather than focus exclusively on one album. That makes longtime staples such as "(sic)," "Wait and Bleed," "Surfacing," "Duality," "Psychosocial" and "Before I Forget" songs to watch for, although the final 2027 setlist will not be known until the tour begins.

• With multiple opening acts on many dates, fans should also plan for a longer concert day than a typical two-act arena show.
