Ohio’s Sonic Temple Art & Music Festival announced plans for its return with a rock-heavy headlining group including Tool, Queens of the Stone Age, Kiss, and the Foo Fighters – returning to the stage this spring following the death of longtime drummer Taylor Hawkins. The festival, which drew more than 100,000 to its inaugural event in 2019 before seeing three ensuing years dashed due to COVID, is scheduled for May 25-28 at Historic Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio.

A four-day affair, Sonic Temple gets underway with Tool and Godsmack atop the bill on Thursday, followed by Avenged Sevenfold and Queens of the Stone Age Friday, Kiss and Rob Zombie Saturday, and Foo Fighters and Deftones headlining closing night on Sunday. Other performers announced include Beartooth, Bullet for my Valentine, Pennywise, Bad Omens, Chevelle, I Prevail, Knocked Loose, Sleeping With Sirens, Falling In Reverse, Puscifer, Trivium, Black Veil Brides, Sublime With Rome, Jawbreaker, The Pretty Reckless, and AWOLNation. A full list of performers announced thus far are available below.
