Sorry, maggots \u2014 it\u2019s official. Knotfest Australia<\/a> is skipping 2026, but don\u2019t go burning your jumpsuits just yet. Organisers have confirmed the fest will return in 2027, promising its heaviest<\/em> and \u201cbest yet\u201d edition when it claws its way back onto our shores.<\/p>\n In a joint statement with Destroy All Lines and TEG, organisers thanked fans for three huge years of carnage and chaos before announcing the break. \u201cAfter three incredible years \u2013 made unforgettable by the fans and the artists that shared the stage across each lineup \u2013 we\u2019ll be taking a short break in 2026,\u201d they said. \u201cThank you for your passion, patience, and loyalty. We can\u2019t wait to share what\u2019s next and to make 2027 a truly unmissable experience.\u201d<\/p>\n The last Aussie Knotfest, headlined by Slipknot<\/a> themselves alongside BABYMETAL <\/a>and Slaughter To Prevail, cemented the event as one of the country\u2019s most vital fixtures for heavy music fans. Polaris <\/a>frontman Jamie Hails called it \u201ca moment for the history books\u201d earlier this year.<\/p>\n But while 2026 won\u2019t have Knotfest, the heavy music calendar is still pretty choccas. ICYMI: Parkway Drive <\/a>have stepped in with their own new travelling circus: Park Waves Festival<\/a>, kicking off in February with dates across Perth, Adelaide, Geelong, Wollongong, Maitland, Byron Bay and the Sunshine Coast. With The Amity Affliction, Northlane, Alpha Wolf and Story Of The Year on board, it\u2019s shaping up to keep the pits very much alive until Knotfest storms back in 2027.<\/p>\n So, chin up maggots. Slipknot\u2019s metal carnival is just taking a breather. You\u2019ll have plenty of breakdowns to tide you over. And if history has taught us anything, it\u2019s that nothing hits harder than a comeback.<\/p>\n Knotfest Australia 2025 Lineup: Slipknot, A Day To Remember, BABYMETAL + MORE<\/a><\/p>\n Park Waves 2026 Lineup: Parkway Drive, The Amity Affliction, Northlane + MORE<\/a><\/p>\n Good Things 2025 Lineup: TOOL, Weezer, Garbage + MORE<\/a><\/p>\n The post Knotfest Australia Is Officially A No-Go In 2026, Fest Will Return In 2027<\/a> appeared first on Music Feeds<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sorry, maggots \u2014 it\u2019s official.
