A dark, immersive alt-rock experience from one of the genre’s most revered live acts.
Saturday 2 & Sunday 3 May 2026, Qudos Bank Arena
Alt-rock icons Deftones return to Australia for the first time in nearly a decade, bringing their immersive and genre-defying live show to Sydney Olympic Park. Joined by special guests Interpol and Ecca Vandal, these highly anticipated arena dates promise two powerful nights of atmosphere, distortion and cinematic intensity.
With a sound that blends raw aggression and layered emotion, Deftones have built one of the most devoted fan bases in alternative music. Expect a setlist that moves between heavy anthems, darker fan favourites and moments that showcase why their live performances are in a league of their own.
