BLUE RIDGE ROCK FESTIVAL has confirmed SHINEDOWN as one of eight headlining performances for the 2023 lineup following the prior announcement of PANTERA. SHINEDOWN returns after their electrifying headlining set in 2021, now celebrating continued success with their seventh album Planet Zero. Despite millions of records sold and copious awards and nominations, the band remains one of rock’s humblest and hardest-working groups out today.
Artists from across the musical spectrum continue to be added to this growing lineup, proudly hosting Megadeth and the post-hardcore memelords I Set My Friends on Fire. The last few weeks have also continued to add to the international flair, featuring Landmvrks (France), Caskets (UK), Paleface (Switzerland) and Holding Absence (Wales). True to their roots, after 30,000+ votes, BLUE RIDGE also delivered the congratulatory announcement for Heartsick, winner of the Unsigned Fan-Voted Talent Search.
With six headliners and over 75 bands yet to be announced, the Festival resumes announcements next week.
BLUE RIDGE ROCK FESTIVAL returns September 7-10, 2023, with a pre-party exclusive to campers on September 6. Interested in leveling up your experience? Meet & Greet and Rockstar passes are still available! Festival tickets are on sale now with payment plans available.
