I couldn’t find any credible sources confirming a 2025 joint tour or performance between Slipknot and Metallica. Here’s a breakdown of what the current information suggests — and where the confusion may be coming from.
What the Publicly Available Info Shows
Metallica’s 2025 Tour
Metallica is touring in 2025, as part of an extension of their “M72” World Tour.
Their confirmed dates run from April to June 2025, with shows in major U.S. cities including Las Vegas, Toronto, Nashville, Columbus (at the Sonic Temple Festival), Philadelphia, Atlanta, Tampa, Houston, and Denver.
At many of these stops, the support acts include Pantera, Limp Bizkit, Suicidal Tendencies, and Ice Nine Kills.
Slipknot’s 2025 Tour
Slipknot has announced a European tour leg for June 2025, including festival dates.
Their June schedule includes Rock Im Park and Rock am Ring in Germany.
Other European shows: Switzerland, Austria, Italy, France, and Spain.
No Overlap or Joint Billing Reported
Despite both bands touring in 2025, there is no reputable announcement or press release indicating that Slipknot and Metallica will perform together on the same bill.
I found no evidence of a “Metal Legends Reunite” tour or any joint performance in news outlets, official band statements, or trusted music media.
Possible Sources of Confusion or Misinformation
Festival Appearances: Slipknot’s shows are heavily tied to European festivals (e.g., Rock am Ring), and Metallica is doing stadium dates in North America — so their paths might not cross.
Rumors or Fan Concepts: It’s common for fans to create “dream tour” scenarios or rumors, especially when big-name bands are touring in the same year.
Misinformation: Sometimes, unverified blogs or social media posts can spread false claims about band collaborations.
Conclusion
There is no confirmed 2025 joint tour between Slipknot and Metallica.
Both bands are active on tour in 2025, but on separate legs and in different regions.
The “Metal Legends Reunite” story appears to be unsubstantiated based on currently available reliable sources.
If you like, I can double-check all major announcements and press releases up to now (including less mainstream sources) to see if there’s any emerging evidence. Do you want me to do that.
