Other metal or heavy rock acts set to appear on the festival’s multi-genre lineup include Faith No More, Smashing Pumpkins, Mr. Bungle, Coheed & Cambria, Taking Back Sunday, The Ghost Inside, NOFX, Thrice, Circa Survive, Living Colour, Thursday and Andrew W.K.

Devo, Dinosaur Jr., Run the Jewels, Pixies and Lupe Fiasco are a few of the other acts scheduled to perform.

A press release promises that “Safety measures regarding COVID-19 — a top priority this year — will be frequently updated, as directed by local health and public safety officials.”
