The lineup for the 2025 edition of the Inkcarceration Music & Tattoo festival has just been announced, and it’ll feature headlining appearances from Slipknot, Falling in Reverse and Five Finger Death Punch.
The annual music and tattooing festival returns to the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, Ohio between July 18th to 20th, with the three-day event bringing more than 65 bands and over a hundred tattoo artists out for the occasion.
The Friday night lineup will be headlined by Ronnie Radke’s Falling in Reverse, but will likewise feature sets from Knocked Loose, Beartooth, Killswitch Engage, Drain, the Amity Affliction, Sleep Theory, the Devil Wears Prada, Drowning Pool, Bodysnatcher, Suffocation, Bodybox and more.
The Saturday rundown finds Slipknot taking the top of the marquee, while acts including Marilyn Manson, Slaughter to Prevail, Dillinger Escape Plan, Kublai Khan TX, August Burns Red, and newly-reunited groups like Acid Bath and Snot are all set to appear.
“Slipknot is playing very few shows in the U.S. this year, so this will be special,” Shawn “Clown” Crahan said of the Iowa Nine’s forthcoming fest appearance. “It will be good to be back with our friends, family, and culture at the Inkcarceration Music & Tattoo Festival. Stay safe! Stay (sic)!”
As for the Sunday lineup, Five Finger Death Punch will close out the fest, while the day will also feature performances from Three Days Grace, Lamb of God, Architects, Bilmuri, Crossfade, Kittie and more. Notably, the logo of one band set to take the stage on Sunday is still blurred out.
