KNOTFEST Returns This Weekend – Set Times Announced – Over 50 Of The Biggest Bands in Heavy Music

Judas Priest

KNOTFEST returns to the San Manuel Amphitheater & Campgrounds in San Bernardino, CA this weekend with an unprecedented lineup of metal and heavy music titans, spread out over three days and nights.

The Slipknot-curated event, now in its third year (and second as a Southern California weekend destination festival), attracted over 50,000 fans in 2014, and this year will feature over fifty of the heaviest bands in the world, playing on five stages on Friday, October 23 (pre-party), Saturday, October 24 and Sunday, October 25.

The weekend will feature performances from Judas Priest, Korn, Bring Me The Horizon, Mastodon, Trivium, Corrosion Of Conformity, Clutch, Mobb Deep, Ghostface Killa, Suicidal Tendencies, Cannibal Corpse, GWAR, Body Count and many more. Slipknot will close the Main Stage on Sunday night.

Suicidal Tendencies

Set times for all stages have been announced and are posted below.

In addition to an unrivaled lineup of some of the best bands in the world, KNOTFEST is as always a sensory overload experience- and KNOTFEST 2015 will only up the ante. This year’s festival attractions include the return of the Slipknot Knotfest Museum (curated by the band), plus the ‘Ring of Fire Carnival Ride’, the Street Drum Corps ‘Blood Drums Experience’, the ‘Thunderdome Fire Area’, the Knotfest Motorsports Park, featuring the Fitz Army Metal Mulisha motocross freestyle show and a monster truck exhibition, flaming carnival games, freaks, fire-breathers, stilt-walkers, craft beer and food trucks… and as always, for the members of Slipknot, the mission is to push the limits even further this time around.

KNOTFEST two-day tickets are still on sale at KNOTFEST.COM.

As with last year, a FREE, on-site pre-party will kick-off the weekend, on Friday, October 23rd. The party is open to all artists, as well as those that have purchased camping and VIP passes.

Doors will open at 12:00 PM on Saturday and Sunday, with music starting soon after.
