After welcoming a crowd of 60,000 people in 2018, Aftershock returns this year, expanding to three full days of performances including a mix of chart-topping headliners and up-and-coming buzzworthy bands across the rock spectrum. The eighth annual edition takes place Friday, Oct. 11, Saturday, Oct. 12 and Sunday, Oct. 13 at Discovery Park near downtown Sacramento, CA, and is produced by independent festival producer Danny Wimmer Presents.
The lineup features Tool, Slipknot, blink-182, Korn, Rob Zombie and the return of Staind after a 5-year hiatus. Additional acts include Bring Me The Horizon, A Day To Remember, Marilyn Manson, Lamb of God, Halestorm, Dropkick Murphys, BABYMETAL, Bad Religion, Stone Temple Pilots and many more.
Korn's Brian "Head" Welch says, "Aftershock Festival is always a unique experience for Korn compared to other festivals. One of the main reasons is we have many friends and family that live near Sacto, so it's always like a family reunion when we play Aftershock. We've been gone a while and we're coming back this year with a new album, new stage look, and a new excitement that is very contagious! We feel like we are on fire right now and our fans are gonna be fuel for the flames!"
