Rock On The Range — the largest and most-acclaimed rock festival in the United States — celebrates its 10th anniversary May 20-21 and May 22, 2016 at MAPFRE Stadium in Columbus, Ohio. The incredible lineup features the legendary RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, hard rock titans DISTURBED (who have returned after a four-year hiatus), and rock icon/filmmaker ROB ZOMBIE topping a lineup that’s packed with rock royalty such as SHINEDOWN, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH, BRING ME THE HORIZON, A DAY TO REMEMBER, MEGADETH, AT THE DRIVE-IN, LAMB OF GOD, SIXX: A.M., HELLYEAH and PENNYWISE, along with the genre’s hottest developing artists.
With three days of music on three stages, sets from rock’s favorite comedians in the Rolling Rock Comedy Tent, The Music Experience, new art installations, and unique onsite activities, Rock On The Range sets the standard for American rock festivals.
DISTURBED says: “We’ve waited long enough, and so have you. Get ready, ‘cause DISTURBED is back and we can’t wait to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Rock On The Range.”
“Rock On The Range is easily one of the best festivals I’ve ever played. Looking forward to doing it again,” says Rob Zombie.
Vinnie Paul of HELLYEAH says: “12 years after my last performance in Columbus, Ohio I have decided it’s time to bring the music of HELLYEAH to the great rock and roll fans that attend Rock On The Range!! We are looking forward to kickin’ your ass at this great event!!”
