Ministry 2023 Tour Announcement – US Tour Schedule
Ministry is making its way back around the US in spring 2033, a real treat for rock music fans everywhere! You didn’t think Skinny Puppy would be the only industrial trek, did you? Joined by Gary Numan, they’ll begin on April 20th in Reno, NV, making 15 stops before concluding on May 11th in Billings, MT.

It’s going to be a busy year for Ministry. Not only will they embark on a headlining trek, but also open for Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper on the “Freaks on Parade tour” and play at the highly-anticipated Sick New World Festival in Las Vegas, NV, this October! But for now, let’s focus on the fact that Al Jourgensen and his bandmates are playing in a series of medium-sized venues across the US. You’ll get the chance to be up close and personal with one of the most legendary industrial bands of our time, with songs like “Just One Fix” and “Thieves” vibrating in your eardrums. With the epic stage setup as your backdrop and the groups’ four-decade catalog of hits as your main course, this Ministry tour will be a feast for the ears and eyes.
In addition to older songs like “So What,” “Jesus Built My Hotrod,” and “Every Day is Halloween,” Ministry will also be supporting their fifteenth and latest record, 2021’s Moral Hygiene. It topped the “best albums of the year” lists for publications like Loudwire and Consequence of Sound and proved that Ministry is still the industrial rock band of our time. No shade to Nine Inch Nails. In fact, AllMusic once wrote that before Trent Reznor and co. came onto the scene, Ministry “did more than any other band to popularize industrial dance music.” They “injected large doses of punky, over-the-top aggression and roaring heavy metal guitar riffs that helped their music find favor with metal and alternative audiences outside of industrial’s cult fan base.”
It’s a loaded but very-deserved compliment, as many of today’s modern industrial metal bands may not exist without Ministry. They changed the culture throughout every decade, cultural shift, and beyond, and we’re eternally grateful they continue to not only exist but release killer hits and tour the world! A Ministry concert is an unparalleled experience for any heavy metal fan, so don’t forget to buy your tickets for the following dates….
