Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Nine Inch Nails will perform live in St. Paul for the first time in a dozen years when they headline Xcel Energy Center on Aug. 17. Tickets go on sale at noon Jan. 29 through Ticketmaster.

Nine Inch Nails last played in the state at Xcel Energy Center on Sept. 28, 2013, according to Concert Archives. However, band member Alessandro Cortini recently passed through town for a show at The Cedar Cultural Center in October. It's also the first tour for NIN since 2022.

Maybe thinking it’s a good year to rail against the piggies again, Trent Reznor is finally hitting the road with Nine Inch Nails in 2025 and will perform in Minnesota for the first time in a dozen years.
