Nothing is quite as metal as a bargain.
And this year’s Sonic Temple Music Festival — which is quite metal on its own — just might be the steal of the season.
Set to take place May 16-19 at Columbus, OH’s Historic Crew Stadium, the 2024 lineup boasts high-profile, heavy headliners like Slipknot, The Original Misfits, Disturbed, Pantera and Evanescence.
Other biggies on the bill include Limp Bizkit, Judas Priest, Staind, Breaking Benjamin and Sleep Token.
In total, over 100 acts will thrash, mosh, and rage at the four-day extravaganza.
Given all the talent set to grace the Sonic Temple stages, one might expect tickets to start in the $500 range.
However, based on our findings, we found four-day general admission passes going for as low as $131 before fees on Vivid Seats at the time of publication.
When you break it down, that’s just $33 (!) a day.
Not bad when you factor in just how many huge acts you’ll be treated to over the long weekend.
