What to know before you go

Check the door time listed by the official ticket seller. Plan to arrive at least 30 minutes early to clear security and reach your section.
Security check: most venues prohibit professional cameras, large bags and outside food. Check the venue's official policy before traveling.
Bring the same payment card or QR code you used at checkout. Some venues no longer print physical tickets — phone screen is enough.
Dress for the genre and the weather — outdoor shows can get cold after sunset. Comfortable shoes for standing-only sections.

What to expect

This is date 28 of the 32 that GWAR has scheduled in our catalog through December 2026. There are 28 dates in United States. The previous stop is Mckees Rocks (December 6) and the next one is New York (December 9). GWAR arrives with "The New Dark Ages" (2022) as the latest studio album, according to MusicBrainz. 9:30 CLUB opened in 1980 and holds 1,200 people.

The GoAllConcerts take

GWAR has 36 dates lined up across the United States and Canada, running from 27 October to 13 December 2026. The band formed in Richmond in 1984 and still tours with 15 studio albums behind it, the latest of those listed being The New Dark Ages, from 2022. That matters, because this is a working band and not a nostalgia reunion. The run opens at The Jefferson Theater in Charlottesville and stops at The Masquerade in Atlanta, The Beacham in Orlando and Revolution Live in Fort Lauderdale. It suits anyone who already likes thrash metal and shock rock. When buying, look at the venue and the city before the date, since a club show is a different thing from Headbangers Boat 2026, in Miami on 30 October.

The GoAllConcerts take: 9:30 CLUB

The 9:30 Club is a room for people who would rather watch a band up close. It opened in 1980, holds 1,200 people and sits at 815 V Street N.W. in Washington. That size suits shows with an engaged crowd more than stadium spectacle. Our catalogue lists 18 upcoming dates between October 2026 and January 2027, with names such as The Damned, She Wants Revenge, Rostam and Strawberry Guy. It is a good pick for anyone who follows alternative rock and indie and wants to catch several acts in one season. When buying, check the date carefully and decide early, because a 1,200-capacity room sells out sooner than a big arena. In 2018 Rolling Stone named it one of the 10 best live music venues in the United States.
