Slipknot are about to turn 2027 into one enormous stadium-sized chapter. The band has announced its worldwide (Sic)est Stadium Tour, promising new staging, a career-spanning setlist and some seriously major venues as they prepare to take their live show across the UK, North America and South America.
But there is more happening around the announcement than simply a new tour. With “Arsenal” marking Slipknot’s first new music in more than three years, recent lineup changes and no new studio album confirmed alongside the single, the 2027 run arrives at a particularly interesting moment for the band.
Slipknot’s 2027 stadium tour starts at Wembley Stadium
The first major detail to land is the UK opening date.
Slipknot will launch the (Sic)est Stadium Tour on July 3, 2027, at Wembley Stadium in London. The performance is being billed as the band’s exclusive UK and European appearance on the tour, making it a particularly significant date in the massive itinerary.
The Wembley show will feature Marilyn Manson, Lorna Shore and Hatebreed as supporting acts.
From there, Slipknot will head across the Atlantic for an extensive North American run beginning on July 16 at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C.
The itinerary moves through some of the biggest stadium and outdoor venues in the US and Canada, including Citi Field in New York, Soldier Field in Chicago, Fenway Park in Boston, SoFi Stadium in Inglewood and Chase Field in Phoenix, as well as Golden Gate Park in San Francisco.
The North American leg concludes in Phoenix on August 18, before the band heads south for the final part of the global run.

Slipknot 2027 tour dates and supporting acts
The currently announced North American schedule is:
| Date | City | Venue | Support |
| July 16 | Washington, D.C. | Nationals Park | Bring Me the Horizon, Acid Bath |
| July 18 | Queens, New York | Citi Field | Bring Me the Horizon, Acid Bath |
| July 21 | Montréal, Canada | Parc Jean-Drapeau | Bring Me the Horizon, Kublai Khan TX, Vended |
| July 23 | Toronto, Canada | Rogers Stadium | Bring Me the Horizon, Kublai Khan TX |
| July 25 | Chicago, Illinois | Soldier Field | Bring Me the Horizon, Lamb of God |
| July 28 | Hershey, Pennsylvania | Hersheypark Stadium | Bring Me the Horizon, Lorna Shore |
| July 31 | Boston, Massachusetts | Fenway Park | Bring Me the Horizon, Lorna Shore |
| August 3 | Nashville, Tennessee | FirstBank Stadium | Bring Me the Horizon, Kublai Khan TX |
| August 6 | Houston, Texas | Daikin Park | Bring Me the Horizon, Polyphia |
| August 9 | Commerce City, Colorado | Dick’s Sporting Goods Park | Bring Me the Horizon, Loathe |
| August 13 | Inglewood, California | SoFi Stadium | Bring Me the Horizon, Loathe |
| August 15 | San Francisco, California | Golden Gate Park | Bring Me the Horizon, Motionless in White, Loathe |
| August 18 | Phoenix, Arizona | Chase Field | Bring Me the Horizon, Motionless in White |
The supplied Rolling Stone report described Bring Me the Horizon as opening all North American dates and listed the rotating support acts. The official tour information confirms the same basic North American routing while also establishing the additional London and South American performances that were not included in that report.
Bring Me the Horizon are joining Slipknot across North America
One of the biggest names attached to the tour is Bring Me the Horizon, who will serve as direct support for every North American date.
That means fans travelling to see Slipknot across the US and Canada will also get Bring Me the Horizon, while the rest of the support lineup changes from city to city.
The rotating names include Acid Bath, Kublai Khan TX, Vended, Lamb of God, Lorna Shore, Polyphia, Loathe and Motionless in White.
The result is a North American itinerary that pairs Slipknot and Bring Me the Horizon throughout the entire leg while giving individual markets different combinations of additional metal and rock acts.

Five South American shows will close the worldwide run
Once the North American stadium dates are finished, Slipknot’s 2027 journey is not quite over.
The band will head to South America for five September performances in Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru and Colombia.
The final stretch currently stands as follows:
- September 4: São Paulo, Brazil — The Town
- September 8: Buenos Aires, Argentina — Estadio Huracán
- September 12: Santiago, Chile — Estadio Nacional
- September 14: Lima, Peru — Estadio Nacional
- September 16: Bogotá, Colombia — Vive Claro
Marilyn Manson and Hatebreed are scheduled to join Slipknot for the South American portion alongside local support.
The São Paulo and Lima performances are listed as non-Live Nation dates.
The scheduled final stop is Bogotá on September 16, bringing the announced itinerary to a 19-date global stadium run spanning three major regions.
Slipknot’s “Arsenal” arrives during a period of major change
The timing of the tour announcement is also notable because Slipknot have recently entered another musical chapter.
Earlier in September 2026, the band released “Arsenal,” their first new track in more than three years.
The song is the band’s first new music since their previous studio album, The End, So Far, which arrived in 2022.
“Arsenal” also follows significant lineup changes. Longtime turntablist Sid Wilson parted ways with Slipknot in August 2026, while keyboardist and sampler Craig Jones left the band in 2023.
The official Slipknot website currently identifies “Arsenal” as out now, while the band’s official store is offering a limited-edition seven-inch vinyl release featuring the song with a Tribal S etching on the B-side.
The track itself arrives with the kind of intensity Slipknot fans would expect, with Corey Taylor delivering its aggressive central refrain:
“I GOT A LOT TO FUCKIN SAY”
The song then breaks into its repeated “Let’s go” chant.
There is, however, one notable piece still missing from the picture: a new album.
Slipknot have not confirmed a new studio album to accompany “Arsenal.”
Earlier in 2026, percussionist and founding member Shawn “Clown” Crahan indicated that he was involved in writing sessions with the band. That leaves the possibility of additional music open, but does not confirm that an album is coming.
New Slipknot staging and a career-spanning setlist are coming in 2027
The band is not presenting the (Sic)est Stadium Tour as simply a larger version of an existing Slipknot show.
Slipknot have announced new staging, a new set and a career-spanning setlist for the run.
That means the shows are being positioned around the band’s wider catalogue rather than exclusively around their newest single.
And the venues make the scale of the plan pretty clear.
From Wembley Stadium and Nationals Park to Citi Field, Soldier Field, Fenway Park, SoFi Stadium and Chase Field, the itinerary takes Slipknot into some of the biggest spaces on the tour map.
The band is also holding special launch events in London and Los Angeles on September 28, 2026.
Those events feature early ticket access, limited commemorative merchandise and a large Slipknot Tribal S lighting ceremony.
At the Wembley event, Slipknot advertised a 9-metre Tribal S steel structure that will be lit on fire. The Los Angeles event at SoFi Stadium features a 30-foot structure.
There is also a collector-style extra for early buyers: the first 500 ticket purchasers at the launch events are set to receive a commemorative Slipknot poster.
When do Slipknot 2027 tour tickets go on sale?
Fans will have several opportunities to get tickets before the general sale.
The first artist presales are scheduled for Tuesday, September 29, 2026, at 10 a.m. local time, followed by a Knotfest presale at 12 p.m. local time.
General public tickets are scheduled to go on sale on Friday, October 2, at 10 a.m. local time.
Additional market-specific presales may vary.
Slipknot’s official website is also listing VIP packages for the tour. Depending on the venue and package, these options include general admission or reserved seating, early floor access and Slipknot-exclusive merchandise.
For fans trying to understand what Slipknot’s next phase looks like after “Arsenal,” the 2027 tour provides a fairly clear immediate picture: the band is taking its live production into stadiums worldwide while building the shows around new staging and a career-spanning set.

Conclusion: Slipknot are going global in 2027
The (Sic)est Stadium Tour is shaping up as Slipknot’s major live chapter for 2027, beginning at London’s Wembley Stadium on July 3 before crossing North America and eventually reaching South America for its September finale.
Bring Me the Horizon will join every North American date, while a rotating collection of major metal and rock acts will fill additional support slots. At the same time, “Arsenal” has introduced Slipknot’s latest musical chapter following recent lineup changes, although no new studio album has been confirmed.
With new staging, a new set, a career-spanning setlist and a 19-date itinerary across three regions, Slipknot have given fans plenty to look forward to when the (Sic)est Stadium Tour arrives in 2027.
