Rob Zombie & Marilyn Manson Descend on Boston for the Freaks on Parade

New England's most iconic outdoor amphitheater is about to host a night of pure shock rock mayhem. Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson are bringing the Freaks on Parade Tour to Xfinity Center in Mansfield, Massachusetts on Thursday, August 27, 2026. This co-headlining spectacle unites two of rock's most visually stunning and musically powerful performers for what promises to be the heaviest show of the summer in the Boston area.

For fans who remember the venue by its original name—Great Woods—this show continues a legacy of legendary rock performances at the 19,900-capacity amphitheater. Zombie and Manson, who previously toured together on the "Twins of Evil" tours, are reuniting with special guests The Hu and Orgy providing support. It's a four-act evening that spans generations of heavy music.

A Night of Spectacle at Xfinity Center

Located 30 miles south of Boston at the intersection of I-495 and Route 140, Xfinity Center has been New England's premier outdoor concert destination since 1986. The venue's mix of 7,000 covered pavilion seats, 7,000 open-air reserved seats, and expansive general admission lawn creates multiple ways to experience this incredible show. The state-of-the-art sound system and massive video screens ensure every seat—from the front row to the back of the lawn—delivers an immersive experience.

Rob Zombie is touring in support of his eighth solo album "The Great Satan," releasing February 27, 2026. Known for his cinematic live shows featuring giant video screens, pyrotechnics, and theatrical staging, Zombie transforms every concert into a horror movie come to life. Expect a setlist spanning White Zombie classics like "Thunder Kiss '65" and "More Human Than Human" to solo hits including "Dragula," "Living Dead Girl," "Superbeast," and new material. Follow Rob on Instagram for tour updates.

Marilyn Manson brings his provocative artistry fresh off his 2024 comeback album "One Assassination Under God – Chapter 1." His theatrical performances feature elaborate costume changes, dramatic staging, and a vocal delivery that remains as powerful as ever. Expect anthems like "The Beautiful People," "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)," "The Dope Show," and "Coma White" alongside newer material. Visit marilynmanson.com for official news.

Opening Acts: The Hu & Orgy

The Hu have revolutionized heavy metal with their unique "Hunnu Rock" sound—traditional Mongolian throat singing and folk instruments fused with crushing metal riffs. Songs like "Wolf Totem" and "Yuve Yuve Yu" have earned hundreds of millions of streams, and their live shows are unlike anything else in rock music. Orgy, the Los Angeles industrial rock band behind platinum hits "Blue Monday" and "Stitches," rounds out this stacked lineup with their synth-driven energy.
