Deftones 2027 Tour Dates: Knocked Loose and julie Join 23-Show Run
Deftones will play 23 North American shows from May 5 to June 20, 2027, with Knocked Loose and julie on every date. Here's the full list and how to get tickets.
Deftones have announced their 2027 tour dates for North America, a 23-show run that starts May 5 in Dallas and wraps up on June 20 in Toronto. Knocked Loose and Los Angeles shoegaze outfit julie are on the bill for the whole trek, which was announced on November 12, 2026.
It's one of the heaviest-hitting packages announced for next year. You get the Sacramento band that taught a generation that heavy music could be vibey, the Kentucky hardcore crew that has turned into a huge arena draw, and a younger band digging into the same dreamy, distorted territory Deftones mapped out decades ago.
What we know about the Deftones 2027 tour
The run is promoted by Live Nation and will mostly be on amphitheaters, with a few marquee rooms mixed in. The headline stops are a Hollywood Bowl show in Los Angeles on May 18 and an outdoor night at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens on June 17.
The May 14 Salt Lake City date isn't a standard tour stop. Deftones are headlining Kilby Block Party that day, so that show runs on festival ticketing rather than the regular tour package.
Loudwire described these as the first batch of 2027 dates. That suggests more shows could be added later, though nothing beyond these 23 has been announced.
Deftones tickets: presale and on-sale dates
- Artist presale: Tuesday, November 17, 2026 at 10 a.m. local time (fans sign up through Live Nation; the band's site links to the registration page)
- Additional presales: run between the artist presale and the general on-sale
- General on-sale: Thursday, November 19, 2026 at 10 a.m. local time
Deftones tours tend to go fast in the big markets. If you're aiming for the Hollywood Bowl or Forest Hills, sign up for the presale now rather than waiting for Thursday.

Why this lineup matters
Deftones haven't slowed down since releasing private music in 2025, their first album in five years. In 2026 alone, they played festivals across Mexico, South America, the UK, and Europe, headlined in Europe and Australia, played Sick New World in Texas, and threw their own Día de los Deftones event at Petco Park in San Diego on November 7 with The Neighbourhood, AFI and Converge.
Knocked Loose are a wild card on this bill that is very exciting. Few hardcore bands have crossed over the way they have, and pairing their pit-starting chaos with Chino Moreno's haze is the kind of contrast Deftones have always liked in their support picks. If you've caught Knocked Loose recently, you know how hard they hit. We saw it firsthand at their Knocked Loose and Denzel Curry concert earlier this month.
julie rounds out the night with the band's fuzzed-out shoegaze, which sits right in the lineage of Deftones' moodier side, so early arrivals will hear where the headliners' influence has landed in a new generation.
What's next
The first thing to watch is the November 17 presale. After that, keep an eye out for further 2027 announcements.
No new Deftones music has been announced alongside the tour, so for now the setlist should lean on private music and the catalog classics.
