Metallica, Linkin Park and Korn will headline the fourth annual Sonic Temple Art & Music Festival in May 2025, organizers announced on Wednesday.
Metallica will also play at Sonic Temple for the first time in 2025 as part of their “No Repeat Weekend,” in which they will perform two different sets across Friday and Saturday. Over 100 bands are set to perform during the four-day event, including Saturday headliner Linkin Park, with new co-vocalist Emily Armstrong.
The festival’s Thursday night lineup at Sonic Temple is scheduled to feature Korn as the headliner, with Bad Omens and Three Days Grace also performing. Metallica, Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper will play on Friday and Saturday will see Linkin Park, Incubus and I Prevail performing. Metallica is set to close the weekend out on Sunday night alongside Alice In Chains and Chevelle.
“We’re thrilled to finally reveal the full lineup to our fans! Bringing two nights of Metallica to Sonic Temple has been years in the making, and we’re excited to make it a reality,” says Danny Wimmer of Danny Wimmer Presents. “With over 100 bands, including powerhouses Korn, Bad Omens and Incubus, alongside the highly anticipated return of Linkin Park, and the reunion of Three Days Grace with Adam Gontier, 2025 is shaping up to be an unforgettable year. We can’t wait to see everyone at Sonic Temple!”
Korn said, “We’re looking forward to coming back and headlining Sonic Temple in 2025 for our friends at DWP, and performing for all of our incredible fans in Columbus, Ohio.”
Other anticipated performances at Sonic Temple will include Three Days Grace with original vocalist Adam Gontier, the 40th anniversary celebration of Gwar, and Crossfade performing for the first time in 13 years.
Three Days Grace’s Adam Gontier said, “I couldn’t be more excited to not only be back together with the rest of the band, but having Three Days Grace joining all our friends and amazing bands at Sonic Temple as our first festival appearance is going to be a very special night.”
