Today, Slipknot announced the 2020 Knotfest Roadshow featuring A Day To Remember, Underoath, and Code Orange.
Following the enormous success of this traveling tour last year, the multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning hard rock band, SLIPKNOT have announced that they will once again be hitting the road this summer.
Last year, the Knotfest Roadshow drew the largest crowds in history for Slipknot and this year’s expectations are through the roof.
The tour begins in Syracuse on May 30th and hits another fifteen cities before ending in The Woodlands, TX on June 25th. Much like last year’s Knotfest, it is expected that tickets will be in very high demand, seeing as this is one of the biggest tours of the summer.
According to Corey Taylor, Slipknot’s frontman, “We set a precedent last year – Knotfest is a showcase where you never know what to expect. This year is no exception. The bands we have represent all corners of our musical world, just like we do. And they’re exciting as hell. I can’t wait to watch and enjoy them along with the rest of the fans.”
Drummer and vocalist of Code Orange, Jami Morgan states
“We’re very grateful to get the opportunity to do a full tour with Slipknot on the Knotfest Roadshow. Slipknot is one of the bands that we have had at the top of our list to be able to open for and hopefully be exposed to their amazing, cultural crowd that’s been around for a really long time. We’re very much looking forward to showing some new people what we can do.”
