Slipknot have announced the line-up of homecoming Knotfest Iowa 2024 with Rammstein‘s Till Lindemann, Knocked Loose and more.

The band’s annual homecoming music festival is set to take place on September 21 for one night only as a special 25th Anniversary Event at Water Works Park in Des Moines, IA. Along with Slipknot, Till Lindemann and Knocked Loose, the likes of Hatebreed, Poison The Well, GWAR, Vended, Dying Wish, Zulu, Twin Temple, Holy Wars, Swollen Teeth, Spine, and Dose are also set to perform.

A ticket pre-sale for Knotfest will commence on Tuesday April 30 at 10am CT (4pm BST). General ticket sales will begin on Friday May 3 at 10am CT (4pm BST). VIP packages, ticket upgrades and excursions are all available. More information can be found via the Knotfest official website. Visit here to purchase tickets.

In a four-star review of Knotfest Melbourne 2023, NME shared: “Clown told NME that Knotfest would debut in Australia this year so that Slipknot could “burn down [our] brainwashed philosophy” and indoctrinate us with their own. If any of those among us weren’t already devout members of the Church Of Slipknot (aka Maggots, sometimes Heretics), they surely walked away last night as fresh converts. Considering all three editions sold out, it seems inevitable that Knotfest will return Down Under in 2024 – we’ll start stretching now.”

In other news, Slipknot recently co-headlined Sick New World Festival in Las Vegas on April 27 with a career-spanning setlist for which they donned their classic original masks and red boiler suits.

The Nine had also played in their classic outfits for an intimate club show last night (April 25) at the Pappy + Harriet’s barbecue bar in Pioneertown, California. The surprise gig had been announced one day prior to the show date on April 24.

The intimate gig marked Slipknot’s first concert with their new drummer – who is still unnamed – following the shocking firing of Jay Weinberg late last year. Their new drummer is heavily speculated to be former Sepultura percussionist Eloy Casagrande, thought the band have yet to confirm his identity.
