Aftershock is certainly living up to its billing as “the West Coast’s largest rock festival” in 2024.
This year’s lineup is absolutely gigantic, featuring such masters of hard rock as Iron Maiden, Slayer, Halestorm, Slipknot, Pantera, Five Finger Death Punch, Evanescence, Judas Priest and Mötley Crüe.
The complete lineup — which was released on Wednesday — is listed below. Highlights include the the sole U.S. festival date on Iron Maiden’s 2024 tour itinerary and the only West Coast performance from Slayer. And, of course, Halestorm ranks as a highlight on basically any bill.
Over all, more than 130 bands will perform across five stages during the festival’s four-day run, Oct. 10-13, at Discovery Park in Sacramento.
Passes are currently on sale at aftershockfestival.com.
