System of a Down Set to Embark on North American Tour in September 2025
Fans of System of a Down have reason to celebrate as the legendary Armenian-American metal band has officially announced a North American tour kicking off in September 2025. This marks the band’s first major tour in years, igniting excitement among their devoted fanbase who have been eagerly awaiting new live performances.
The tour is expected to cover major cities across the United States and Canada, including Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Toronto, and Vancouver. Additional dates and locations are anticipated, with more announcements likely to follow. System of a Down has remained one of the most influential bands in the alternative metal scene, known for their politically charged lyrics, unique sound, and explosive live performances.
The band, consisting of Serj Tankian, Daron Malakian, Shavo Odadjian, and John Dolmayan, has been relatively inactive in terms of touring and new music releases in recent years. However, their return to the stage is expected to reignite the energy that made them one of the most impactful bands of the early 2000s.
Fans can expect to hear iconic tracks such as “Chop Suey!,” “Toxicity,” “Aerials,” and “B.Y.O.B.,” alongside potential surprises and deep cuts from their extensive discography. While there has been no official confirmation of new material, rumors continue to swirl about the possibility of fresh music accompanying the tour.
In a recent statement, lead vocalist Serj Tankian shared his enthusiasm about the upcoming tour: “We’ve missed being on the road and performing for our fans. This tour is something we’ve been looking forward to for a long time, and we can’t wait to bring our music back to the stage.”
Pre-sale tickets will be available to registered fans starting in June 2025, with general ticket sales beginning in July. VIP packages, including meet-and-greet opportunities, exclusive merchandise, and premium seating, will also be available for dedicated fans.
With System of a Down’s reputation for high-energy performances and thought-provoking music, this North American tour is shaping up to be one of the most highly anticipated rock events of the year. Fans are encouraged to stay tuned for additional tour date announcements and special guest appearances.
