System of a Down will return to Poland. Concert date announced.

The renowned American rock and metal band has announced a European stadium tour for 2026. System of a Down will also perform in Warsaw. On July 18, the band will play a concert at the PGE National Stadium. The quartet will return to Poland after a nine-year hiatus.

The tour, sponsored by Live Nation , will kick off in Stockholm on June 29. System of a Down will then visit Paris, Milan, Berlin, Dusseldorf, and London . The tour will culminate in a show at the National Stadium in Warsaw on July 18. General tickets go on sale on Friday, September 19.

Queens of the Stone Age will be special guests throughout the tour, and Acid Bath will open the concerts. Both bands, both from the US and formed in the 1990s, share a penchant for heavy sounds. Acid Bath disbanded in 1997 following the death of bassist Audie Pitre, and reformed in 2024.

System of a Down has returned to touring extensively this year, with a six-date North American stadium tour in the summer and a Latin American tour earlier this year, both of which sold out.

System of a Down is one of the most influential rock bands of the 21st century, having sold 45 million records worldwide. All four members of the band— Serj Tankian, Daron Malakian, Shavo Odadjian, and John Dolmayan —are of Armenian descent.

The band has performed in Poland several times, most recently in 2017 in Krakow as part of the Impact Festival. The band was scheduled to play at Wawel Castle in 2020, but the concert was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
