It's just weeks after the likes of My Chemical Romance, Guns N' Roses, Shinedown, Bring Me The Horizon, Foo Fighters, Tool and hundreds more made Welcome To Rockville and Sonic Temple Art + Music Festival 2026 two of the biggest events in US rock history - but it's already time to start getting excited about next year's editions!

After bringing together 210,000 members of the rock and metal community this year for one special weekend, Welcome To Rockville will touch down once again at the iconic Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida from May 6-9 2027, with what is expected to be the biggest lineup in the festival's history set to be announced in the coming months.

Meanwhile, taking place from May 13-16 at the Historic Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio, Sonic Temple will be more than a music festival; it's a true experience, a celebration of music and art, with this year's event completely sold out.
