Korn

Korn are back at Utilita Arena Birmingham on Wednesday 28 October, part of a run of shows across October and November 2026. It's their first UK and Ireland tour in more than a decade, and the Birmingham date is one of five UK stops presented by Live Nation and SJM. They're not coming alone, either: Architects and Youth Code are both on the bill.

For those who need a reminder of where they started, Korn formed in Bakersfield, California, and changed the landscape of heavy music with their self-titled debut in 1994. It was a record that pioneered a whole genre and sparked a wider cultural movement, and they've spent the years since building on that foundation. They've sold more than 40 million albums worldwide, picked up two Grammys, and become a pillar of influence across rock, alternative and metal. The Ringer described them as 'a genuine movement in a way bands cannot be now'.

With Architects and Youth Code supporting, it's a full night of heavy music rather than a single act. The Birmingham date is part of a five-date UK tour, and the venue lists it as sold out, so you'll want to check for any remaining tickets sooner rather than later. Doors open at 6:00 PM, with the show starting at 7:30 PM. Tickets were £65.00 to £77.50 plus fees.
