Marilyn Manson will performing at Arizona Bike Week in Scottsdale, Arizona on Saturday, April 5th 2025! Though Manson had not been previously scheduled for this event which is just a few weeks away, yesterday Arizona Bike Week made the following announcement on their social media pages: "Five Finger Death Punch had to cancel their performance due to a family matter, but we’re thrilled to announce Marilyn Manson will be taking the stage in the RockYard on Saturday, April 5th!! Saturday ticket holders will be receiving an email regarding this schedule change." Due to the lineup change, this will be Marilyn Manson's first headliner at a festival since his return to the stage last year. Regarding the nearly last minute schedule change, Arizona Bike Week producer Lisa Cyr told the Arizona Republic the following: “It’s been a little crazy, obviously. A lot of scrambling.

On July 2nd 2024, significant updates were made to the lawsuit filed by Bianca Allaine Kyne against Brian Warner/Marilyn Manson.
First, Manson's motion to dismiss all allegations in Kyne's complaint referencing sexual abuse as a minor in 1995 when she was 16 years old was granted.
Second, any reference to Kyne's own personal drawings of Manson from when she was 16 are to be removed.
Third, Kyne is therefore ordered to make a Second Amended Complaint within 30 days removing all of the above.
Why this ruling?
The reason the judge ruled to have these removed was because Manson argued these allegations did not fall under the New York Adult Survivor's Act, which is the reason Kyne was allowed to file her lawsuit against Manson in the first place. The Adult Survivor’s Act does not apply extraterritorially (outside New York) or to claims involving minors (it is designed only for adult sexual assault-related lawsuits). Since Kyne alleges these acts are from when she was a minor while living in Texas, the New York Adult Survivor's Act does not apply to these specific allegations. It should be mentioned that the Plaintiff did concede to have these allegations removed.
What can we expect next?
Bianca Allaine Kyne has 30 days to make a Second Amended Complaint, so we should expect that in the coming days.
