Masked metal legends Slipknot are in London this week with the band’s Here Comes the Pain Tour. Corey Taylor and co are in town marking 25 years since the release of their self-titled debut Slipknot in 1999, and the O2 is the next stop on a tour spanning much of Europe.
Slipknot are well-known for their bonkers live shows – so you won’t want to miss ‘em at the O2 Arena in Greenwich this weekend. They’re here in the capital for two gigs at the city’s biggest indoor arena.
Heading down to see Slipknot this week? Here’s everything you need to know, from timings and support to a potential setlist and remaining ticket availability.
