Your favorite metalcore band, Killswitch Engage, is hitting the road in support of their recently released album, but you only have June 2026 to see them. The run of shows is short and also includes a handful of festivals.
The final gig will be one you won't want to miss; however, if you are a fan of full volume rock & roll, and why wouldn't you be? The band will be one of the many to participate in this year's version of the Louder Than Life festival in Louisville. That will take place in mid-September.
Besides Killswitch Engage, the lineup includes Tool, My Chemical Romance, Iron Maiden, and Megadeth, among many, many other iconic hard rock and metal bands.
The when, where, and how of Killswitch Engage's recently announced tour
If you aren't a huge fan of festivals, though, you can check out Killswitch Engage beginning on June 3 in Detroit and follow them as the tour winds from the northeast through the south and finishes in California.
Presale tickets were made available beginning Tuesday, March 3, at 2 pm ET. General public tickets will be made available on Friday, March 6, at 10 am local time. For more information, you can visit the band's official website.
Bands opening for the Massachusetts legends include Machine Head, thrashers Iron Reagan and Havok. If you like metal mixed with punk, this is a tour you won't want to miss.
As far as Killswitch Engage's most recent album, The Consequence, the reviews have been mixed. Still, you won't go to the concerts for only the new stuff. The entire catalog of the metalcore greats is worthy of being heard.
