Slipknot have shared details of Knotfest Iowa 2024.
Scheduled to take place on September 21 at the Water Works Park in Des Moines, the special "one night only 25th anniversary event" will be headlined by the hometown metal icons, with a unique set drawing heavily from their 1999 self-titled debut.
Rammstein singer Till Lindemann and Knocked Loose will serve as direct support, with Hatebreed, Poison The Well, GWAR, Vended, Dying Wish, Zulu, Twin Temple, Holy Wars, Swollen Teeth, Spine and Dose also set to appear. Tickets for Knotfest Iowa go on general sale at 10am local time on Friday (May 3).
Last Thursday (April 25), Slipknot played a surprise, one-off throwback set at an intimate venue in Pioneertown, California, which saw the nine wearing classic masks and the red boiler suits reminiscent of their early years. The band also wore the same outfits for their headline career-spanning set at Sick New World Festival in Las Vegas on Saturday (April 27).
The two shows marked the group's first concerts with their new drummer, Eloy Casagrande, following the departure of Jay Weinberg in late 2023.
Later in the year, they'll continue their 25th anniversary celebrations with winter shows across Europe and the UK, including stops in Leeds, Glasgow, Manchester, Birmingham and London, where they'll take over The O2 Arena for two nights. Head here for tickets.
Slipknot’s latest album is 2022's 'The End, So Far'.
NEW // Maggots, assemble 😈@KNOTFEST is back for a VERY special, 25th anniversary edition of @slipknot's signature hometown party, joined in Des Moines by Till Lindemann, @knockedloose, @Hatebreed and LOADS more on Sept 21.
