Sonic Temple is a hard rock and metal festival held in Columbus, Ohio, United States at the Historic Crew Stadium. The inaugural festival was held in May 2019, replacing the previously annual Rock on the Range. Sonic Temple was to return in 2020, but was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which put the festival on hiatus until its return in 2023.

History

[edit]

In 2018, it was announced by Danny Wimmer Presents that their former Rock on the Range festival, held in Columbus, Ohio, United States at Mapfre Stadium (renamed to Historic Crew Stadium in 2020), would be replaced by the Sonic Temple Art & Music Festival at the same location in 2019.[3] The inaugural festival was a three-day event held from May 17–19 with estimated sold-out crowds of 120,000.[4]

In December 2019, the full lineup for Sonic Temple 2020 was revealed. Metallica were to headline both Friday and Sunday night, with Slipknot headlining on Saturday. Other performers were to include Deftones, Bring Me the Horizon, Evanescence, Sublime with Rome, Rancid, Dropkick Murphys, Cypress Hill, Pennywise, Royal Blood, The Pretty Reckless, Alter Bridge, Anthrax, Flatbush Zombies, Pop Evil, Hellyeah, Ghostemane, Suicidal Tendencies, Testament, Dance Gavin Dance, Ice Nine Kills, Sleeping with Sirens, The Darkness, Knocked Loose, Code Orange, Power Trip, Saint Asonia, Dirty Honey, Jinjer, City Morgue, Bones UK, Airbourne, Fire from the Gods, Dinosaur Pile-Up, Des Rocs, Counterfeit, Crobot, Cherry Bomb, DED, Goodbye June, Brutus, 3Teeth, BRKN Love, Killstation, Brass Against, Crown Lands, Ego Kill Talent, Dregg, Bloodywood, and Zero 9:36, with more to have been announced.[5]

In February 2020, it was announced that Metallica would be replaced as headliners by the Red Hot Chili Peppers on Friday and Tool on Sunday following frontman James Hetfield's entrance into a rehabilitation program for substance abuse.[6] The following month, however, the festival was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7] It was once again cancelled in 2021 due to the ongoing pandemic.[8]

In November 2022, it was announced that after a three-year hiatus due to the pandemic, Sonic Temple would return in 2023 and be held as a four-day festival during Memorial Day weekend from May 25–28.[9][10][11]

On August 23, 2023, the 2024 festival dates were announced for May 16–19. It was also revealed that the 2024 festival would expand to have four stages to allow for more bands to perform.[12]

The 2025 festival dates were announced in June 2024. The 2025 edition was moved up a weekend and will be held from May 8–11.[13] On September 19, 2024, it was announced that Metallica would headline both Friday and Sunday nights, as they were originally supposed to do in 2020, with Rob Zombie and Alice In Chains opening for them on the respective nights.[14]
