GEDDES, N.Y. - K-Rockathon is returning to the Lakeview Amphitheater this summer and for the first time ever, it's two days long.
Avenged Sevenfold, Rise Against, Three Days Grace and Ho99o9 headline the first day of the festival, which is Saturday, July 21. Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson headline the second day of the show on July 22.
A limited number of two-day passes go on sale Friday, April 6, at 10 a.m. on LiveNation.com and Ticketmaster.com. Prices for the two-day passes range from $49 to $150, plus fees. Single-day tickets will go on sale at a later date.
"Last year we proved that the Lakeview Amphitheater is a great spot to see some rock in CNY," K-Rock Brand Manager Marissa Greenlar said. "This year, we're back with a Saturday & Sunday two-day festival with some of the biggest names in active rock!"
Greenlar said a third act may be added to open the second day of the festival.
Overnight parking is not permitted at the Lakeview Amphitheater and there are hookups for campers in the parking lots, so camping overnight from Saturday to Sunday likely won't be an option, Greenlar said.
Word of Avenged Sevenfold, Three Days Grace and Ho99o9 appearing at the amphitheater on July 21 emerged earlier this week.
Both Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie performed at the Lakeview Amphitheater in 2016.
This year marks the 22nd year of K-Rockathon in Central New York. The first K-Rockathon was held at Vernon Downs in 1996 and featured the likes of Butthole Surfers, Poe, Reverend Horton Heat, Seven Mary Three, The Refreshments, Toadies and The Verve Pipe.
After going on hiatus in 2016, K-Rockathon returned last year and featured KoRn, Stone Sour, Skillet, Yelawolf and DED.
