Alt-metal pioneers KORN have announced they will return to London to perform for the first time in seven years, with their biggest UK headline show to date at Gunnersbury Park on Sunday 11 August.
Vocalist Jonathan Davis, guitarists James “Munky” Shaffer and Brian “Head” Welch, and drummer Ray Luzier have continued to push the limits of the rock, alternative and metal genres, while remaining a pillar of influence for legions of fans and generations of artists around the globe.

Joining KORN at the mammoth outdoor event are special guests Denzel Curry, Spiritbox, Wargasm and Loathe. If you’re wanting a ticket (and you absolutely should), you better be quick, because with a line-up like that, we can’t see them being available for too long.
Florida rapper Denzel Curry emerged as a trailblazer with his 2018 debut, TA13OO, igniting a brash new wave in the scene. Since then, he has become one of the most recognisable names in modern hiphop and his latest release ‘Melt My Eyez See Your Future’ has only cemented his position. His live shows are not to be underestimated, and as he said himself, “Me & KORN about to slaughter sh*t when we get back in the UK. Be Ready.”
Spiritbox are one of the most impressive and hyped young bands of today. Fronted by the dynamic vocal powerhouse Courtney LaPlante, they’ve propelled the genre ahead with their forward-thinking, technical metal and recent collaborations with artists like Megan The Stallion have further catapulted them toward crossover stardom.
London-based duo WARGASM, a rising force in the global rock scene, recently unleashed their anticipated debut album ‘Venom’ to widespread acclaim. Leading the new wave of genre-blending metal, they have dominated festival and arena stages.
Liverpool metalgaze outfit Loathe, rose to prominence with their second album and instant scene classic ‘I Let It In and It Took Everything’. Their continued evolution on the acclaimed follow up ‘The Things They Believe’ saw them embark on extensive headline USA and UK runs, as well as standout sets at Download Festival and Outbreak.
