The time has finally come: Fans asked and we delivered— Metallica is headed to Sonic Temple Art & Music Festival for the first time ever in 2025! Metallica has been the #1 most requested act to play this destination event, and to celebrate the occasion, we are bringing two full headlining spots for a “No Repeat Weekend.” Metallica will close out both Friday and Sunday nights of the four-day festival weekend, taking place on May 8, 9, 10 & 11 at Historic Crew Stadium in Columbus, Ohio.
In addition to Metallica, DWP is pleased to announce two of the biggest artists in rock and metal will be playing in direct support: Rob Zombie on Friday, May 9 and Alice In Chains on Sunday, May 11. More than 100 bands will take the stage across the four-day weekend, for the biggest year ever of the Pinnacle of Rock Festivals in America.
