The Family Values Tour was created by the band Korn in 1998 to be an annual Hard rock, metal and rap tour. Korn headlined the first tour, then passed the headlining spot to Limp Bizkit in 1999. The tour took the year off in 2000, due to heavy competition. In 2001, Stone Temple Pilots and Staind headlined the tour.

Family Values returned in 2006 with Korn, Deftones, Stone Sour, Flyleaf and Dir en grey on the main stage. Korn played for approximately 90 minutes each night, and lawn tickets were $9.99 with a second stage. However, at the Nashville, TN, Noblesville, IN, Boston, MA (Where part of the Family Values Tour DVD was recorded), Cincinnati, OH, Toronto, ON,Columbus, OH,Washington, DC,San Antonio, TX and Marysville, CA performances, the bands performed on one stage.
