The new dates mark the first time that the nu-metal giants have toured on these shores in over 10 years, and come just over a year after they played a huge headline performance at the 2025 edition of Download Festival.
Advertisement Dates kick off with an opening night in Stuttgart on October 18, before continuing later that month with shows in Munich, Cologne, and Paris. From there, six shows are scheduled for the UK and Ireland, starting with arena gigs in Leeds, Birmingham, Newcastle and Manchester at the end of October, and continuing with shows in Dublin and London at the start of November.
The tour wraps up with further European shows, including stops in Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Milan and more.

Advertisement Jonathan Davis and co.’s last studio album, ‘Requiem’, came out in February 2022. In a four-star review, NME said: “It would be a push to call this Korn’s first ‘happy’ album. More accurately, ‘Requiem’ has brought something new to a discography that, until now, has been an exploration of human suffering. It’s led to the band’s most nuanced record to date.”
Back in December 2024, guitarist Brian “Head” Welch shared an update on new music from the band, saying it was “not gonna be soon”.
