14 New Rock + Metal Tours Announced This Past Week (May 15-21, 2026)

We've got 14 new rock and metal tours announced this past week and there's some shows you absolutely won't want to miss.

Smashing Pumpkins are planning epic shows in which they play two sets, one dedicated to their Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness album and the second set pulling hits from throughout the years.

Beartooth are also heading out with another late year run scheduled for North America. They're taking out Don Broco, Magnolia Park and Windwaker for dates in November and December.

And if you're looking for something a little heavier, there's a killer co-headline trek with Arch Enemy and their new vocalist Lauren Hart teaming up with The Black Dahlia Murder for shows in October and November.

This week also features some specialty concerts announced for Greta Van Fleet and The Offspring that you'll want to catch if you're in the area.
