The 14th edition of Welcome to Rockville in Daytona Beach, Florida, returns May 15-18 with what it is calling its largest lineup ever as North America’s largest rock festival.

After reporting more than 200,000 total attendees from all 50 U.S. states and 57 countries in 2024, this year’s rock and metal-focused event is topped by Shinedown, Green Day, the newly reformed Linkin Park and Korn, with a stacked lineup that also includes Rob Zombie, 3 Doors Down, Alice In Chains, Good Charlotte, Incubus, Pierce The Veil, Bad Omens, Marilyn Manson, Sublime, Knocked Loose and still many others, adding up to more than 150 bands on five stages over the four days of the festival, which is produced by Danny Wimmer Presents.

Additional music will even take place during a Wednesday pre-party for festival campers.

Brent Smith from Florida-based Shinedown said in the announcement: “We take this very seriously…it’s symbolic and a massive honor to be a headliner at Welcome To Rockville. This is the biggest rock festival in North America, so LET’S GO!!!! Thank you to DWP for always believing in us and giving us this incredible opportunity. What I can tell the audience is that myself, Barry, Zach, Eric and our entire crew are going to bring you a performance and experience like no other.”

Tickets are now on sale, with four-day, single-day, VIP and various options for passes to attend, including hotel packages and payment plans.

The event is the first of the major DWP events to take place in the calendar year, with Slayer announced for 2025 Louder Than Life in Louisville and Metallica for Sonic Temple in Columbus, Ohio.

Danny Wimmer Presents scored multiple Pollstar Award nominations for its business in 2024, which saw record crowds for events including Bourbon and Beyond in Louisville, which announced a total attendance of 210,000 people in September and scored a Pollstar Award nomination for Best Music Festival.
