Slipknot will bring its newly announced (sic)est Tour to Golden Gate Park on Aug. 15, 2027, with Bring Me the Horizon, Motionless in White and Loathe joining the band at the Polo Field.
The show will mark Slipknot’s first performance in Golden Gate Park and its first Bay Area headlining set in more than eight years. Golden Gate Park Concerts launched in 2024 with System of a Down and Deftones and returned in 2025 with Dead & Company and Zach Bryan.
Two days earlier, Slipknot will play SoFi Stadium in Inglewood on Aug. 13. Bring Me the Horizon and Loathe will also appear at that show, while Motionless in White is only listed for the San Francisco date.
The tour follows the release of “Arsenal,” Slipknot’s first new song in more than three years. The band has also been teasing its next era with cryptic imagery, including its tribal logo appearing on social media and projected onto San Francisco’s Ferry Building.
Slipknot is currently working on new music, though no album title or release date has been announced.
The band is promising new staging and a career-spanning setlist for the (sic)est Tour. Other support acts appearing on select dates include Marilyn Manson, Hatebreed and Lamb of God.
Artist presales for the Golden Gate Park show begin Tuesday, Sept. 29 at 10 a.m., followed by an Another Planet Entertainment presale Wednesday, Sept. 30 at 10 a.m. General tickets go on sale Friday, Oct. 2 at 10 a.m. through Golden Gate Park Concerts’ website and Ticketmaster’s website.
General-admission tickets start at $179, while VIP packages start at $399 and include an up-front viewing area, lounge access, upgraded restrooms, bleacher seating and expedited entry. The event is entirely general admission with no reserved seating.
