The acclaimed Sick New World Festival will make its long-awaited return in 2026, expanding for the first time to include two major editions: one in Las Vegas, Nevada, and another in Fort Worth, Texas.
The Las Vegas event will take place on April 25, followed by the Texas edition on October 24. Both will remain single-day festivals, preserving the signature format that has defined Sick New World as one of the premier heavy music gatherings in the world.
After a short hiatus, the festival is set to return stronger than ever, once again uniting legends of nu-metal, industrial, and alternative rock with the rising generation of boundary-pushing artists shaping the future of the genre.
Since its debut, Sick New World has become synonymous with monumental stage production, nostalgic energy, and genre-defying lineups. The addition of a Texas edition marks an ambitious new chapter, extending the experience to a broader audience and solidifying its reputation as one of the defining festivals of modern heavy music.
Details regarding the lineup, ticket sales, and VIP experiences will be announced soon, but anticipation is already high among fans eager to relive the chaos and catharsis that define Sick New World.
