Killswitch Engage Add Second Melbourne Show To 2026 Australian Tour

Following the first date of their first tour of Down Under getting sold out in under two weeks, Killswitch Engage have added a second Melbourne show to meet the surging demand.

The Massachusetts metalcore icons will now play a show at the Forum falls on November 9th, a day before the sold-out November 10th concert.

The upcoming run marks Killswitch Engage's first headline tour of Australia since 2018 and their first visit to the region since September 2024, when they opened for Iron Maiden.

British metal outfit Sylosis will be joining as special guests on all dates of the tour, which is in support of Killswitch Engage's ninth studio album, This Consequence, which arrived in 2025.
