The Used and Butcher Babies headline this week's 14 new tour announcements
The weekly rock and metal roundup also brings a canceled Bonnaroo 2027, a postponed Polyphia run and a Soundgarden reunion in Seattle
Fourteen new rock and metal tours landed over the past seven days, and The Used sit near the top of the pile. The alt-rock band starts a run in September and keeps going through December with barely a gap in the schedule.
Butcher Babies also stand out, having carved out a block of October dates for headline shows slotted between stops on a support run behind Mudvayne's Chad Gray. Canadian veterans Triumph, meanwhile, continue to ride their reunion momentum with another North American leg booked for November and December.
The week brought changes as well. Polyphia pushed their touring back to February 2027, with dates now running Feb. 5 through March 20 and Ladrones plus RJ Pasin along for the ride. Bonnaroo organizers confirmed the festival will sit out 2027 entirely so the grounds can recover from significant weather damage suffered in recent years.
One-off performances filled in the rest. Soundgarden reunite in Seattle for the Seahawks' Sept. 9 home opener, with Taylor Momsen and Mike McCready joining a special halftime set. The Offspring play an Oct. 24 benefit concert at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, and Cypress Hill revive their Haunted Hill Halloween tradition at New York's Irving Plaza on Oct. 31 alongside Immortal Technique and Lord Sko.
Five Finger Death Punch will stream their Sept. 9 Red Rocks show in Colorado through Veeps, while Alice Cooper's annual Christmas Pudding benefit returns Dec. 12 at the Celebrity Theater in Phoenix with Dee Snider, Lzzy Hale, Joe Hottinger and John 5 and the Creatures taking part. The all-star Toy Factory Project closes out the calendar with a New Year's Eve show at Atlanta's Fox Theatre.
