GODSMACK Announce Massive 2026 “The Rise Of Rock” Tour With STONE TEMPLE PILOTS And DOROTHY

Hard rock heavyweights GODSMACK are gearing up for a full-scale takeover in 2026. The multi-platinum juggernauts have unveiled The Rise Of Rock Tour, a sprawling North American run featuring legendary grunge icons STONE TEMPLE PILOTS and powerhouse rocker DOROTHY as special guests.

Produced by Live Nation, the tour brings GODSMACK’s thunderous, arena-sized live show to amphitheaters across the U.S. and Canada. Kicking off in May and stretching deep into the fall, the run hits major markets coast to coast — from Virginia and Texas to California, Toronto, and beyond — before closing out in Idaho this September.

Select dates include festival appearances at Welcome to Rockville, Sonic Temple, and KUPD UFest, with DOROTHY joining the bill on select non-festival stops.

Presales begin Tuesday, February 3 at 10 a.m. local time via Citi Entertainment, with general on-sale starting Friday, February 6 at 10 a.m. local time.

Fans looking to go all in can upgrade with The BulletProof Experience, GODSMACK’s VIP package featuring premium tickets, early venue entry, and exclusive collectible merch — including a limited-edition art print, branded guitar pick tin, enamel pin set inspired by classic album eras, and a commemorative VIP laminate.
