In a seismic announcement that’s already shaken rock and metal communities worldwide, Slipknot, Motionless In White, and Korn have unveiled plans for a massively anticipated 2026 co-headlining world tour — a run destined to be one of the biggest and most talked-about live music events of the year.
What started as whispers on social media and fan forums has exploded into a full-blown tour revelation, with dates and cities now confirmed across North America, Europe, Australia, and South America. This is the first time in history that all three heavyweight acts have joined forces for a single global trek, promising fans a string of unforgettable nights packed with heavy riffs, pyrotechnics, and pure metal energy.
The announcement video dropped simultaneously across all three bands’ official channels, featuring a rapid-fire montage of electrifying live clips, behind-the-scenes footage, and a never-before-heard audio mashup that hints at possible collaborative stage moments. Fans were quick to flood comment sections with excitement and speculation.
Slipknot, still riding the wave of their latest material and monumental live production innovations, will anchor the tour with a setlist blending classics with fresh cuts. Their reputation for immersive stagecraft and raw intensity is expected to be magnified on this global scale.
Joining them is Motionless In White, whose theatrical presence and gothic metalcore grit have earned them a fiercely loyal international following. This tour marks an expansive leap for the band, following their own busy 2026 schedule that includes headline shows in Europe and support slots at major festivals — all building momentum for this headline-level partnership.
Korn, pioneers of the nu-metal movement and recent festival headliners, bring decades of heavyweight credentials to the table. With a catalog of genre-defining hits and a reputation for seismic live performances, their role in this tour completes the dream-team dynamic.
The itinerary begins in early spring 2026 with a North American leg covering major U.S. and Canadian markets. Cities like Toronto, Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York are expected to host arena-level events, with tickets already projected to move fast due to pent-up demand.
Summer sees the tour crossing the Atlantic for a European run hitting capitals such as London, Paris, Berlin, and Milan. Outdoor amphitheaters and historic arenas alike will welcome this powerhouse lineup, with local opening acts set to be announced soon.
By fall, audiences Down Under and across South America will get their turn as the tour wraps up in Sydney, Melbourne, Buenos Aires, and São Paulo — truly cementing the trek as a world tour in every sense.
Insiders suggest that each night will feature special guest appearances and unique setlist moments — including possible cross-band collaborations onstage, a first in the genre. Fans are buzzing about what surprises could await when these three forces share the same stage under one roof.
Excitement has already spilled into the festival circuit, as major events worldwide rumble with speculation that Slipknot, Korn, and Motionless In White will also bring their energy to festival lineups throughout the year, adding even more dates beyond the core tour.
While official ticket sale dates and VIP packages are still being finalized, early rumors hint at presales beginning imminently — and they’re expected to sell out in record time. Concertgoers are advised to sign up for alert lists with Ticketmaster and each band’s official site to avoid missing out.
Whether you’re a lifelong “Maggot,” a devoted MIW follower, or a die-hard Korn fan, this 2026 co-headlining world tour promises to be a bucket-list experience for heavy music lovers everywhere — and the kind of tour that will be talked about for years to come. Let the countdown begin.
