The Welcome to Rockville festival appears to have outdone themselves with a massive count of over 150 bands and the unheard of 12 reunions booked for 2025.
It’s a stellar lineup spanning four days (May 15-18, 2025) at the Daytona International Speedway in Daytona, Fla. Headlining this year’s bill will be Shinedown, Green Day, Linkin Park and Korn.
As stated, there’s a wealth of reunions, led by Linkin Park, with Three Days Grace, The Dillinger Escape Plan, It Dies Today, All Shall Perish, Power Trip, Chiodos, Dry Kill Logic, Chimaira, Evans Blue and Snot all back together.
The 2025 Welcome to Rockville Lineup + Stages
Organizers Danny Wimmer Presents did something a little different, teasing the full lineup with stage reveals leading up to the big announcement. That allowed fans to not only whet their appetite over the bands revealed early but also start to get an idea of who they wanted to see or perhaps determine what stage they wanted to spend the bulk of their time at. But with 89 new band announcements, the puzzle is complete.
