Breaking Benjamin is bringing its 2027 tour to Nationwide Arena in Columbus on February 25, with Starset serving as special guest and P.O.D. and Filter rounding out the support bill. The stop is one of 16 dates on a run that kicks off in Cedar Rapids, Iowa in February 2027 and wraps nearly a month later on the East Coast.
The tour was announced as a 16-date outing running from February 16 in Cedar Rapids through March 12 in Atlantic City, New Jersey, according to Consequence. The Columbus show falls roughly a week and a half into the run, with Breaking Benjamin set to headline Nationwide Arena on February 25, 2027, as first detailed by WSYX.
Ticket access rolls out in stages this week. A Citi cardmember presale through the Citi Entertainment program began today, Wednesday, November 4, at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster, per the same Consequence report. An artist presale using the code WICKED follows Thursday, November 5, at 10 a.m. local time, before general ticket sales open to the public Friday, November 6, at 10 a.m. local time.
Spotify Subscribers Get an Early Shot
Eligible U.S. Spotify Premium subscribers have an additional path to tickets through the platform's Reserved by Spotify program, which offers some tickets to subscribers ahead of the general on-sale. Eligible fans are set to be notified by Spotify via email and app notification, and those who qualify can buy up to two tickets before the show goes on sale to everyone else.
Chart-Topping Single Fuels the Run
The tour announcement comes as Breaking Benjamin rides fresh momentum on rock radio. The band's single Something Wicked hit No. 1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, marking its ninth song to top that tally, the outlet reports. Consequence also notes the band is working on a long-awaited follow-up to its 2018 album Ember, though no release details have been confirmed.
For Columbus rock fans, the February 25 date gives plenty of lead time to lock in tickets before the show, with the lineup of Starset, P.O.D. and Filter promising a heavy night at Nationwide Arena early next year.
