Slipknot have announced they will headline next year’s Knotfest Australia.
The band decided to let us know a full year early that they’ll be gracing Knotfest Australia with their 25th-anniversary celebrations in 2025.
If you’ve already got tickets for Knotfest Australia 2024, or you’re planning to grab some, you’ll get first crack at tickets for Knotfest 2025.
Keep your eyes peeled for the lineup reveal for Knotfest Australia 2025, featuring Slipknot at the helm, coming later this year.
In the meantime, this year’s Knotfest Australia boasts an impressive lineup of rock and metal legends.
Co-headliners Pantera, the American groove metal pioneers, and Disturbed, the chart-topping modern heavy metal band from Chicago, promise electrifying performances.
Fans of Pantera won’t want to miss this rare opportunity as the thrash metal icons haven’t performed in Australia since 1996. Disturbed’s last appearance in Australia was eight years ago, adding to the anticipation.
