The metal world is buzzing with excitement as fans eagerly anticipate the massive 2026 touring campaign involving two of heavy music’s most electrifying acts: Slipknot and Motionless in White. Although official full world dates are slowly rolling out, announcements from venues and ticket platforms have begun to paint an exciting picture of what’s to come.
For Slipknot, long-time pioneers of nu-metal and sonic brutality, 2026 promises a major return to the road. Rumors and early reports suggest a global tour announcement accompanying new creative material tied to their forthcoming 2026 projects.
While detailed Slipknot cities and venues are still being confirmed, fans have already spotted listings for tour dates across various platforms — a sign that the masked nine might soon reveal their full itinerary.
In parallel, Motionless in White has officially announced a substantial European & UK headline tour kicking off in early February 2026. These dates are slated to take fans from Glasgow to major arenas across the continent, including Nottingham, Manchester, Paris and beyond.
Specifically, early confirmed Motionless in White stops include Glasgow (OVO Hydro), Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham, and AO Arena in Manchester, where the band will deliver high-intensity performances with support from Dayseeker and Make Them Suffer.
German fans also have reason to celebrate as additional 2026 headlining shows in Düsseldorf, Hannover, Munich and Frankfurt were confirmed later on, offering a deeper dive into the band’s European conquest.
Across the Atlantic, Motionless in White will join Bring Me the Horizon’s Spring 2026 North American tour leg, performing in cities ranging from Toronto and Montreal to New York City’s Madison Square Garden and Baltimore — major stops that guarantee packed arenas.
The North American routing sees the band share the stage with acts like The Plot in You and Amira Elfeky, further bolstering the bill and delivering variety for metalcore and alternative metal fans alike.
But Motionless in White isn’t just focused on Europe and North America — June 2026 will mark their long-awaited return to Australia, with headline dates in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.
These Australian shows represent the band’s biggest outings there in nearly a decade, complete with support from Make Them Suffer and Currents, bridging the Pacific leg with powerful energy.
Fans are also scouring social feeds and concert boards for Slipknot’s contribution to the 2026 touring landscape, as early posts tease collaborations and shared bills with iconic metal names, suggesting that Slipknot’s presence will be felt on major festival circuits as well.
Whether you’re marking your calendar for a full European tour run with Motionless in White, planning to catch the band alongside Bring Me the Horizon, or waiting to see Corey Taylor and company unleash their next chapter with Slipknot, 2026 is shaping up to be a monumental year for heavy music lovers worldwide.
Stay tuned — with tickets going on sale and videos set to drop, this is a tour announcement metal fans won’t want to miss.
