Sick New World Festival 2025 Canceled

The 2025 Sick New World festival, scheduled for April 12 in Las Vegas, has been officially canceled due to 'unforeseen circumstances' as announced by the organizers. This decision comes despite excitement surrounding a lineup that included major acts like Metallica, Linkin Park, and Queens of the Stone Age. Rumors of budgeting issues and potentially disappointing ticket sales had circulated prior to the announcement, with some industry insiders hinting that financial viability was a concern. Trevor Dunn of Tomahawk had previously indicated in an interview that the festival would not happen, adding credibility to the cancellation news. Organizers have promised refunds for tickets purchased directly from Front Gate Tickets within 30 days. Fans are left wondering about the future of the festival, which had gained popularity in its past editions.
