Godsmack have expanded their 2026 "Rise of Rock" tour with a new run of October shows across the US, adding to legs already completed and scheduled for the spring, summer and September. The additional dates will be supported by Dorothy and mark a further stage in the trek, which follows a lineup shake-up after the 2025 retirements of longtime members drummer Shannon Larkin and guitarist Tony Rombola.

The new October leg begins on the 9th in Airway Heights, Washington, and travels through cities including Minneapolis, Milwaukee and Cincinnati before closing on 24 October at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut, the venue where the band recorded their recent live album. Tickets go on pre-sale now with the code LEGENDS via Ticketmaster, ahead of general sale on Friday, 31 July at 10am local time. Godsmack now tour with founding members Sully Erna and Robbie Merrill alongside new additions Sam Koltun on guitar and former Dream Theater drummer Mike Mangini, while the previously announced September leg will feature support from Stone Temple Pilots and Dorothy.
