LIMP BIZKIT HEADLINE GOOD THINGS 2026
Leading the primary frequency for Good Things Festival in 2026, LIMP BIZKIT's imprint on nu metal and alternative culture has generated an enduring and towering reputation throughout the band's 30+ year career. As one of the major pioneers of nu metal, and one of the most successful bands in the scene of all time, LIMP BIZKIT's signature collision of rap rock, grooves, searing riffs, angsty themes and larger-than-life performances has carried them from the late '90s breeding ground of MTV and teenage frustration into a multi-generational fanbase built on high-octane party anthems and entertaining chaos.
Exploding out of the gates with their 1997 debut Three Dollar Bill, Y'all, LIMP BIZKIT's 1999 sophomore album Significant Other reached #1 on the US Billboard 200, earned two GRAMMY nominations, was certified 7x Platinum, and delivered fan-favourites like Break Stuff and Nookie. Their 2000 follow-up, Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water, set the record for the fastest-selling rock album of all time, and the band has gone on to sell over 40 million records worldwide across six studio albums, including 2021's STILL SUCKS.

Rollin' from strength to strength
LIMP BIZKIT return to Good Things in 2026 having spent the years since their 2023 appearance rewriting exactly how big this era of the band can get. It started in 2024, when their sub-headline slot at the UK's Download Festival pulled a crowd bigger than that year's actual headliners — a performance so widely talked about that Download's own festival boss publicly declared they had to headline next time around.
This year, LIMP BIZKIT kicked off their touring cycle in June at Impact Festival in Kraków before launching into a run through Europe — including Rock am Ring, Rock im Park, Hellfest and Graspop Metal Meeting — that culminated later that same month with them finally delivering on Download's promise, officially headlining the festival for the first time in its history, 23 years after they were originally meant to headline its inaugural 2003 edition.
They're not slowing down before they get here, either. In September, LIMP BIZKIT headline Louder Than Life in Louisville, before backing it up in October with a headline slot at Aftershock in Sacramento — sharing top billing at both with Tool, who headlined Good Things in 2025. From there, all roads lead to summer — Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane this December, where the chaos officially becomes ours.
Along the way, the band have become just as famous for who they've pulled on stage as the sets themselves — surprise cameos from comedian Tom Green and even the cast of Super Troopers have gone viral this year alone, proving LIMP BIZKIT's current era knows exactly how to keep the internet rollin'.
Believe the hype — there's nothing quite like a LIMP BIZKIT live show, and these will be monolithic performances to truly rattle the mainframe.
