System of a Down recently completed a European summer stadium tour with back-to-back sellouts in Paris, London, and Warsaw. The band has also been marking the 25th anniversary of their album Toxicity with an immersive exhibition at Beyond the Streets in Los Angeles that features rare artifacts and memorabilia from the album’s era.
Beyond the Rose Bowl date, System of a Down will perform a series of 2027 concerts in Brazil, Australia, and New Zealand with Faith No More. These shows are scheduled for January 15 in Rio De Janeiro, January 22 in Sydney, January 27 in Melbourne, February 1 in Brisbane, and February 7 in Wellington.
Pierce the Veil formed in San Diego and have become one of modern rock’s most influential and electrifying bands. Known for their explosive live shows and a genre-blurring mix of emo, punk, metal, and pop, the band has been drawing major crowds on their I Can’t Hear You Tour with sellouts at Madison Square Garden, Red Rocks and multiple nights at the Kia Forum.
System of a Down last performed in the Los Angeles area in 2022 before embarking on a series of co-headlining stadium dates in 2025 with Korn, Avenged Sevenfold and Deftones. The Rose Bowl show represents their return to major stadium venues in their home region.
