System Of A Down has added a fourth night at Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena due to overwhelming demand, according to Pollstar. The new date on June 12, 2027, will feature French metal band Gojira as special guest, joining three previously sold-out shows at the iconic venue. Meanwhile, electronic music pioneer Moby will perform at Brookside at the Rose Bowl on November 7, 2026, as part of his ongoing tour schedule that also includes Mexico City’s Simi Fest in December.
The expansion of System Of A Down’s residency demonstrates the enduring popularity of the Glendale-native band, which hasn’t released new music since 2005 but continues to sell out stadiums worldwide. Their four-night stand at the 92,000-capacity Rose Bowl represents one of the most significant rock events in Southern California for 2027.
Stadium Domination and Supporting Acts
System Of A Down’s Rose Bowl engagement now spans June 5, 6, 10, and 12, 2027. The first two nights feature San Diego rock band Pierce The Veil as support, while Gojira joins for the final two performances. Tickets for the newly added June 12 show go on sale October 27 at noon local time through Ticketmaster. The band’s global stadium tour continues through early 2027 with stops in Brazil, Australia, and New Zealand before returning to their Southern California roots.
Moby’s Brookside appearance comes eight months after he canceled a scheduled performance at Mexico City’s Vive Latino festival in March 2026, with Steve Aoki subsequently taking his place. The electronic artist continues to maintain an active touring schedule despite the cancellation.
The SoCal Connection
Both events highlight Pasadena’s position as a premier concert destination, with the Rose Bowl complex hosting acts across multiple genres and scales. System Of A Down’s homecoming is particularly significant—the stadium stands just eight miles from their hometown of Glendale, making these shows a triumphant return for one of Southern California’s most successful rock exports. The four-night engagement follows their massive European stadium performances, including two nights at Stade de France that grossed nearly $20 million according to Pollstar Boxoffice.
Moby’s Brookside performance provides a more intimate counterpoint to the stadium spectacle, offering electronic music fans a chance to see the influential artist in a distinctive outdoor setting. The venue’s proximity to the Rose Bowl creates a unique concert corridor in Pasadena that caters to diverse musical tastes.
With System Of A Down’s tickets selling rapidly and Moby’s November show approaching, Southern California music fans have two distinct high-profile events to anticipate at the Rose Bowl complex. The continued demand for legacy acts in stadium settings suggests robust health for the live music industry heading into 2027.
