While we recently shared our top ten tours we’re looking forward to see this year, this list could easily change as yesterday (8th), Live Nation announced their Ticket to Rock promotion. The promotion is created to give concertgoers the chance to see multiple shows at select venues throughout the summer at a reduced price. Live Nation revealed bands such as Slipknot, KoRn, Behemoth, Gojira, etc. would be part of the summer package as LN issued the following statement:
“Today Live Nation unveiled details for the 2019 Ticket to Rock– one ticket that gets fans in to some of the hottest rock shows all summer long. Artists included in this year’s package are: Alice in Chains, Breaking Benjamin, Behemoth, Chevelle, Gojira, Korn, Slipknot, Underoath, Volbeat & more. Full lineups and dates for the participating tours to be announced soon. In select cities, Shinedownand Slayerwill also be a part of the package.”
According to ThePrp, these upcoming summer tours could include the following line-ups:
Slipknot will potentially headline with Volbeat, Behemoth, and Gojira as KoRn will tour along with Alice In Chains, and Underoath. Breaking Benjamin and Chevelle are planning to team up together for a North American trek as certain shows will also see Slayer and Shinedown eligible for the same promotion.
All participating venues are offering a three show package at $59. There will be four show packages in select cities that also include Shinedown or Slayer starting at $69. Ticket packages are on sale now.
