Yes, you read that correctly, Slayer is reuniting after a five-year hiatus! They’ll also appear at a few other rock festivals in 2024, including Riot Fest and Louder Than Life. However, we still can’t take our eye off the hell-raising Aftershock lineup that spans various generations and sub-genres of rock. In addition to the main headliners, attendees will also be treated to 50+ more top-tier artists from the heavy metal hall of fame.
These include 2000s favorites like Breaking Benjamin, Evanescence, and Falling in Reverse, plus 80s classics like Ministry and Anthrax. Throw in some Irish rock bangers from Dropkick Murphys, female-fronted screams from Halestorm, and nu-metal from Staind, and you’ll instantly be in the mood to mosh. Aftershock Festival is basically a playground for rock and metal fans of all ages, riling up the genre’s best for a day of scream-alongs and sick memories.
Not to mention, great food and grand attractions! When you’re not busy running between stages at Aftershock Festival, you can soak up the magic of California’s capitol between sets. The sunny weather, even in the midst of fall, is easy to appreciate, while you’ll also have access to delicious food vendors, merchandise stands, art exhibits and more. Rock fans will be in their element every second during the Aftershock Festival, which has now run for over a decade without a hitch.
Pull your ripped black jeans out of your closet and get your eyeliner ready, because Aftershock Festival is an unforgettable experience for any metalhead! Tickets are available now for all four days.
