After a record-breaking year in 2026, Aftershock is set to return to Sacramento’s Discovery Park for its 15th year, with four days of rock and metal on the calendar. On Tuesday festival production company Danny Wimmer Presents announced the rock and metal festival’s 2027 dates and when tickets will go on sale. In 2027, Aftershock will come right before the return of the GoldenSky country festival , and fans will be able to purchase tickets for both festivals at a bundled price, according to Danny Wimmer Presents, which produces both events. More than 180,000 attendees passed through the festival gates in 2026, marking four sold-out days at Discovery Park. More than 140 bands performed across five stages. Pierce the Veil, My Chemical Romance, Limp Bizkit and Tool headlined, while a number of bands from Sacramento also hit the stage. Here’s what to know about Aftershock 2027. When will Aftershock 2027 be held? According to the festival’s news release, Aftershock is scheduled for Sept. 30 through Oct. 3, 2027, at Discovery Park, 100 Garden Highway in Sacramento. The following week, Oct. 9-10, GoldenSky will replace the heavy drums and metal vocals filling the park with a country twang. Singers Zach Bryan
