Rock am Ring 2026 – The complete line-up brings a festival of superlatives

Automatic translation. Improvements are constantly being worked on.
Rock am Ring new 2026

What a finale! The secret was revealed on Halloween night: Rock am Ring and Rock im Park 2026 present their complete line-up – and it’s more than impressive. 54 new acts complement the already strong program and unite legends, scene greats and up-and-coming newcomers for a weekend that leaves nothing to be desired.

Welcome to the Ringrockers

New additions include The Hives, Alter Bridge, Tom Morello, Breaking Benjamin, Bush, The Pretty Reckless, H-Blockx, President and Wargasm – a mix that shows just how broad and lively the musical spectrum of the twin festivals is.

The first wave of bands had already caused a stir in September: With Iron Maiden, Linkin Park, Volbeat, Limp Bizkit, Bad Omens, Electric Callboy, Sabaton, Babymetal, Within Temptation, Architects and many more, it was clear that Rock am Ring 2026 was in for a big time.

An unprecedented rush

And the audience reacted accordingly: all 90,000 weekend tickets were completely sold out by the beginning of October – and in record time. The Saturday and Sunday tickets for Rock im Park are also completely sold out, with only a few remaining tickets still available for the Friday of the festival.

Anyone wishing to pass on their tickets can do so securely and officially via the verified Eventim FanSale. The organizers expressly point out that tickets should only be purchased or passed on via this channel in order to avoid fraud and overpriced secondary market offers.

From June 5 to 7, 2026, the Nürburgring will once again be transformed into the epicenter of the international live scene and become the venue for a weekend that will inspire all generations and unite the rock and metal world once again.
