Korn play the First Direct Arena on their Euro Tour 2026, with special guests Architects and Youth Code.
Korn are playing the First Direct Arena on Monday 26 October, part of their Euro Tour 2026. They're bringing two special guests with them, Architects and Youth Code, so it's a full bill rather than just the one band. The show is standing floor only, which is something to keep in mind if you're planning your night.
Korn have been around for more than three decades, and they're one of the names most people associate with the nu-metal sound. They formed in California in the early 1990s and helped shape that era of metal with a dark, heavy sound and raw, emotional lyrics. Over the years they've put out multi-platinum albums, Follow the Leader and Issues among them, sold over 40 million records worldwide, and picked up two GRAMMY Awards. They're still known as one of the more intense live acts in rock, and this Leeds date is one stop on their 2026 European tour.
With Architects and Youth Code on the bill, there's more than just Korn to see. Architects bring their own heavy, melodic approach to the stage, and Youth Code add a different, industrial edge to the mix. Having both as special guests means the night starts well before the main set, and the standing-only floor puts everyone in the same space for all three acts.
