Alternative metal heavyweights Deftones will bring their newly announced North American tour to San Antonio’s Frost Bank Center on Thursday, May 6, 2027, venue officials said Friday.

The Sacramento, California-based outfit will be joined by Kentucky hardcore knuckle busters Knocked Loose and Los Angeles shoegaze trio julie.

General admission tickets for the Frost Bank Center show go on sale at 10 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 19, through Frost Bank Center and Ticketmaster. Fans can also register for an artist presale through Sunday, Nov. 15. The presale begins at 10 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 17.

The 23-date tour kicks off May 5 in Dallas and wraps up June 20 in Toronto, with additional stops in Houston, Los Angeles, New York and other cities.

Deftones, known for blending crushing metal riffs with atmospheric textures and dreamy melodies, are touring behind the 2025 LP private music. The Grammy-winning group, fronted by vocalist Chino Moreno, emerged during the 1990s alt-metal boom and remain a consistent concert draw.

The group recently headlined its own annual Dia de los Deftones festival in San Diego.
