The Mid-Atlantic’s Biggest Rock Festival has expanded to three days in 2016, championing the best of today’s rock and legendary classic artists performing on four stages. Monster Energy Carolina Rebellion, launching on May 6, 7, and 8, will also feature the expanded Pig-Out BBQ village and premium camping facilities. Located at Rock City Campgrounds at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, NC, the music festival highlights performances from over 50 top rock artists.

The lineup features ZZ Top, Five Finger Death Punch, Shinedown, Deftones, Lynyrd Skynyrd, A Day Tot Remember, 3 Doors Down, Alice Cooper, Bring Me The Horizon, Cypress Hill, Pennywise, Lamb Of God and many others. Brent Smith of Shinedown comments, “I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again…Rock n’ Roll is a way of life, and Carolina Rebellion is living proof…We are honored to be on this year’s lineup. We hope the Rebels are ready, because we are!”

The Mid-Atlantic’s Biggest Rock Festival sold out in advance in 2015, with a record-setting 80,000 fans in attendance for the fifth annual Monster Energy Carolina Rebellion. This year, German rock band Scorpions, rock icon/filmmaker Rob Zombie, and Disturbed, returning after a 4-year hiatus, lead the music festival with the promise of stellar performances. Co-Executive Producer Danny Wimmer explains:

From its inception, we believed Carolina Rebellion would grow into a three day festival. There is a loyal rock fan base here to support Rebellion’s continued growth. While this of course means another full day of music, including more classic artists, the entire festival experience will be noticeably enhanced. This year’s emphasis will be on food. We will be hosting a ‘Gourmet Man Food’ offering that reflects the cultural food explosion that is happening all around the country.

The incredible headliners will unleash their music in other festivals sponsored by Monster Energy, including South Florida’s biggest rock festival and Florida’s largest rock experience. Billy Gibbons of ZZ TOP, who will be joining Megadeth and Disturbed in Monster Energy Welcome To Rockville and Monster Energy Fort Rock, said it best: “ZZ TOP is coming at’cha with some raucous rock ‘n roll to the Rebellion. We are looking forward to this massive rock party…Come on!”
