Background on Sick New World Festival
Sick New World faced delays last year with the cancellation of the 2025 event. Organizers expressed their disappointment over the unforeseen circumstances that led to the cancellation.
In recent news, System Of A Down announced a UK and European tour alongside Queens Of The Stone Age. This tour marks their first UK performances since 2017. Simultaneously, Bring Me The Horizon is set to embark on their ‘Ascension Program 2’ North American tour in 2026.
Recent Activities of Headliners
Deftones released their latest album, ‘Private Music,’ earlier this summer and completed a North American tour. They plan to head to the UK and Europe at the start of 2026.
This year’s Sick New World promises an unforgettable experience for fans of hard rock, goth, alternative, and heavy music. With a stellar lineup and two distinct locations, excitement is palpable for both spring and fall events.
