Tool, My Chemical Romance, Shinedown and Bring Me the Horizon will headline the next Sonic Temple festival at Historic Crew Stadium in Columbus, Oh., which will take place May 14-17. Pierce the Veil, Breaking Benjamin, the Offspring, Staind, Good Charlotte, Godsmack and Megadeth will further anchor the bill.
Sonic Temple drew 175,000 fans to this year’s event, after which promoter Danny Wimmer Presents extended its partnership with the venue through 2030. Click here for tickets.
The lineup will be rounded out by Lamb of God, All Time Low, Public Enemy, Coheed & Cambria, Black Label Society, Tom Morello, Anthrax, DragonForce, Coal Chamber, the Darkness, Alter Bridge, Sublime, Hawthorne Heights, and Simple Plan, among dozens of others.
Beyond the music, American painter Terry Urban and Bob’s Burgers creator Jay Howell will create installations throughout the grounds, while the Caduceus Wine Garden will offer selections from such purveyors as Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan’s Merkin Vineyards.
For My Chemical Romance, whose summer stadium tour drew an average of 45,000 per night, Sonic Temple will be one of three Danny Wimmer Presents festivals the band plays in 2026, including Welcome to Rockville in Daytona Beach, Fla., and Louder Than Life in Louisville, Ky.
