Marilyn Manson, the iconic shock-rock legend, is set to make a grand return to the stage this summer and fall with the second leg of his "One Assassination Under God" tour. This highly anticipated tour supports his latest album, "One Assassination Under God - Chapter 1," which was released in November 2024 via Nuclear Blast Records.
The tour kicks off on August 7, 2025, in Sturgis, South Dakota, at Buffalo Chip, and spans across the United States and Europe, concluding on November 30, 2025, in Lisbon, Portugal. Manson's tour will include a variety of stops, such as the Rocklahoma festival in Pryor, Oklahoma, on August 29, and the Louder Than Life festival in Louisville, Kentucky, on September 18. Other notable dates include performances in Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Kansas City, Denver, and Albuquerque, among others.
Ticket presales for the tour begin on April 2, 2025, at 10:00 AM local time, with general public tickets available starting April 4, 2025, at the same time. Fans can purchase tickets through Manson's official website, marilynmanson.com.
In addition to the tour announcement, Manson has been busy releasing new music. In August 2024, he dropped two new tracks, "Raise The Red Flag" and "As Sick As The Secrets Within," followed by a third track, "Sacrilegious," in September. The latter was performed live for the first time during a concert on August 3, 2024, at The Fillmore in Silver Spring, Maryland. This marked Manson's first live performance since the pandemic, having previously returned to the stage on August 2, 2024, at the kick-off concert of Five Finger Death Punch's summer arena tour.
Manson's new touring band features returning members Tyler Bates on guitar and Gil Sharone on drums, along with new additions Reba Meyers from Code Orange on guitar and Matt Montgomery, also known as Piggy D. from Rob Zombie, on bass. This new lineup aims to deliver an unforgettable experience for fans during the upcoming tour.
Despite his recent legal troubles, Manson's career seems to be on the upswing. He has faced numerous allegations of sexual, emotional, and physical abuse from multiple women, including actress Evan Rachel Wood. Manson has consistently denied these allegations, asserting that all his intimate relationships have been consensual. In January 2025, the Los Angeles district attorney announced that he would not face charges following a four-year investigation into the claims.
The shock rocker has had a tumultuous few years, having been dropped by his record label, Loma Vista Recordings, and talent agency CAA in 2022 following the allegations. His last album before "One Assassination Under God - Chapter 1" was "We Are Chaos," released in 2020, which debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 and topped the Top Rock Albums chart.
As Manson prepares to hit the road again, he expresses gratitude for his fans' unwavering support. "I’m excited to share my new music and connect with fans across the globe once again," he said in a recent statement. "This tour is a celebration of resilience and the power of music to bring us together."
