Rock for People Festival has announced the second wave of bands for its 2026 edition!
Taking place from June 10–14 at Park 360 in Hradec Králové, Czechia, the festival expands its already colossal line-up with the addition of GORILLAZ, LIMP BIZKIT, THREE DAYS GRACE, BABYMETAL, NOTHING BUT THIEVES, BASEMENT, GATECREEPER, JOEY VALENCE & BRAE, THE ROYSTON CLUB, SOFIAN MEDJMEDJ, and UNPEOPLE.
They join previously announced headliners IRON MAIDEN, who will perform on Sunday 14th June as part of their Run For Your Lives World Tour, and BRING ME THE HORIZON, who will headline with their boundary-pushing live AI visuals. GORILLAZ will headline Wednesday 10th June, marking one of the festival’s most inventive bookings to date, while LIMP BIZKIT take over Thursday 11th June with their explosive nu-metal anthems.
Also confirmed are ELECTRIC CALLBOY, PAPA ROACH, ALTER BRIDGE, BILMURI, MEGADETH, SOCIAL DISTORTION, THE PRETTY RECKLESS, BLOOD INCANTATION, DON BROCO, LOTTERY WINNERS, MAGNOLIA PARK, MAMMOTH, MELROSE AVENUE, PRESIDENT, STATIC-X, THROWN, VIANOVA, WOHNOUT, YONAKA, and ZERO 9:36.
Speaking about the announcement, festival founder Michal Thomes says, “it’s great to see the lineup growing before our eyes. Having four headliners for next year finally confirmed and announced in mid-October is every organiser’s dream. And this is just the beginning, with over 200 performers set to appear at the festival, there’s even more to look forward to…”
Now entering its 31st year, Rock for People has grown from a grassroots Czech rock gathering into one of Europe’s leading alternative festivals. Following 2025’s record-breaking 30th anniversary edition headlined by LINKIN PARK, the 2026 event will again span five full days, offering more music, art, and immersive experiences than ever before.”
Rock For People will take place at Park 360, Hradec Králové, Czechia from June 10th-14th 2026. Tickets are available now and can be purchased here.
