It's a Sick New World — again. The Las Vegas nu-metal festival is returning for a second edition in 2024, and next year's headliners include System of a Down, Slipknot, A Perfect Circle and more.
Like 2023's inaugural fest — also headlined by SOAD, along with Korn, Deftones, Incubus, etc. — Sick New World will once again be a party in Vegas, except the 2024 lineup is a little less nu-centric, encompassing many styles of heavy music from the last 30 years.
Alice in Chains, Bring Me the Horizon, Danny Elfman, Bad Omens, Primus, Sleep Token, Lamb of God, Knocked Loose, Spiritbox, Lorna Shore and BABYMETAL are all on the roster, as well as non-metal artists like Slowdive, Duster and Have a Nice Life.
Currently, this is System of a Down's only tour date on the books since 2023's Sick New World fest back in May. A Perfect Circle will be playing their first shows since 2018 in the lead-up to this show, but Sick New World will be the band's first festival appearance in at least half a decade.
Sick New World is happening April 27th, 2024. Pre-sale tickets go on sale Friday October 13th at 1 p.m. PST. See the full lineup below.
