System of a Down, Korn, Slayer, and More Announced for Sick New World Las Vegas and Fort Worth
For the first time since its inception, the Sick New World festival is officially expanding into a second location. As previously reported, the primarily nu-metal focused fest is branching out into the Lone Star state with that edition taking place at the Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth on Saturday, October 24, 2026. Of course, the Las Vegas edition is also happening, with that one taking place on April 25 at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds.
As one would expect, the shows have different lineups with some overlap here and there. Each festival features 50 acts, including headliners like System of a Down, Korn, and Bring Me The Horizon in Vegas and System Of A Down, Deftones, and Slayer celebrating 40 years of Reign In Blood in Texas.
If you’re interested in attending, you can sign up for the festival’s newsletter and SMS list to receive an access code to the ticket presale set to begin on Friday, October 24 at 10 a.m. CT. A same day public sale will take place following the presale for any remaining tickets. GA, GA+, VIP and Ultimate VIP tickets available, each with their own set of perks.
