System of A Down Announce Concert At Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, CA

System Of A Down will be headlining a concert at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, CA that’s being billed as the “first-ever concert to take place in the park after dark.” The show will be the only performance this year outside of their own sold out Sick New World Festival in Las Vegas. The event takes place on Saturday, August 17th from 3pm – 10pm and also performing will be Deftones, The Mars Volta, Viagra Boys and VOWWS. Artist pre-sales will take place Wednesday, April 10th at 10am/PT with an Another Planet Entertainment pre-sale starting Thursday, April 11th at 10am PT.

The concert series will provide key economic benefits for San Francisco, while helping contribute to the prevention of cuts to City parks and programming. “We are excited to be bringing such an iconic lineup to the city and what better venue than Golden Gate Park,” said Allen Scott, President of Concerts and Festivals at Another Planet Entertainment. “We are expecting fans from not just the Bay Area but from across the US and internationally to travel to the city injecting money into the local economy. From hotels to local restaurants and everything in between, this will be a great night of music and a great economic boost for the city.”
