Knotfest Tickets
Knotfest is Slipknot's heavy-music gathering, built to feel like an apocalyptic carnival. Launched in 2012, its first two dates landed August 17 in Iowa and August 18 in Wisconsin. Since then the festival has traveled the globe, staging thunderous lineups across the United States, Mexico, Japan, Colombia, Brazil and Australia. Fans come for the fire, art installations and sensory overload that mirror Slipknot's ferocious stagecraft.
Recent editions have expanded the experience with the Knotfest Museum and special hometown moments in Iowa. Whether you are chasing a pit-shaking headliner or discovering the next must-see act, Knotfest turns a day into a full-body rush. Buy Knotfest tickets from Vivid Seats for a seamless, secure purchase that gets you closer to the chaos you came to feel.
