Friday night 6th October sees legends Guns N’ Roses and Iron Maiden take to the stage.
As previously reported by TheatreArtLife, Guns N’ Roses are embarking on a massive world tour this year, that starts at the beginning of June.
Iron Maiden are also on the road for much of the summer this year, kicking off the end of May in Europe through to the start of August. Check out the full Iron Maiden tour dates.
Saturday 7th October hosts AC/DC and Ozzy Osbourne, though neither are currently touring so their appearances will be extra special – Ozzy had announced only recently that he would no longer tour due to his health.
Sunday 9th October sees Metallica and Tool share the stage.
Metallica start a world tour at the end of April, kicking things off in the Netherlands, and ending in the USA in November – the band have already booked the next leg for 2024 which picks up again in Munich in May 2024, ending in Mexico next September.
Tool are also touring from May across the USA, starting in Florida and Ohio, before heading to Kentucky in September and California in October.
The event produced by Goldenvoice, promises that the double headliner shows will give the festival “unmatched concert production that will amplify the experience beyond the traditional stadium or parking lot concert norm”.
