System Of A Down is set to headline the Sick New World festival at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds next spring. After taking a break in 2025, the festival will return on April 25, 2026. The previous edition was canceled due to low ticket sales that couldn’t cover high artist fees, with both Metallica and Linkin Park asking for $5 million each to perform. Before the pause, the festival had successful runs in 2023 and 2024.
Before hitting Vegas, System Of A Down will tour Europe. Their tour kicks off at Stockholm’s Strawberry Arena on June 29, 2026. They will perform in several major cities, including double shows in Paris, London, and Warsaw. Joining them on this European tour are Queens of the Stone Age and Acid Bath. Most shows are already sold out, with only a few tickets left for the final night in Warsaw on July 19, 2026.
Here’s the complete tour schedule:
– June 29 – Stockholm, Sweden – Strawberry Arena
– July 2-4 – Paris, France – Stade De France
– July 6 – Milan, Italy – Ippodromo SNAI La Maura
– July 8 – Berlin, Germany – Olympiastadion
