A Legendary Rock Band Returns to Mexico City

System of a Down, the Grammy-winning American rock band known for their sonic experimentation and political critique, is set to perform in Mexico City on May 27, 2026, at the Estadio GNP Seguros. The concert is expected to be one of the most anticipated events of the year, following the rapid sellout of their recent European and UK tour.

A Massive Show with Special Guest IDLES

The Mexico City show will feature British rock band IDLES as the opening act. Known for their high-energy live performances and raw sound, IDLES’ presence as a supporting act promises an unforgettable night for attendees.
