The West Coast’s biggest rock festival, Aftershock, is returning to Discovering Park on October 6-9 2022! This year's event is aiming to be the biggest edition of the festival yet by expanding to four days, adding a fourth stage, and featuring over 90 bands!

The lineup this year is seriously stacked!

Foo Fighters were scheduled to play the closing night of the festival but they canceled all of their upcoming tour dates following the unfortunate sudden passing of the band’s longtime drummer, Taylor Hawkins. Muse will now be standing in for the Foo Fighters. Matt Bellamy, Lead singer of Muse, said, “It’s been too long and we can’t wait to come back to Northern California and headline Aftershock on Sunday, October 9 in Sacramento!”



In addition to performances from top music artists, Aftershock is providing an incredible line up of food and beverage options to this year's festival!
