Loudmouths, are you ready to rock? Louder Than Life, North America's largest rock festival has announced the lineup for the 2024 four-day outdoor event and all we can say is, it's going to get loud in Louisville.
Celebrating its 10th year, Louder Than Life headliners include the mighty return of slash gods Slayer, plus Mötley Crüe, Slipknot, and Korn.
Also performing Sept. 26-29 at the Highland Festival Grounds at Kentucky Exposition Center is Disturbed, Judas Priest, Five Finger Death Punch, Evanescence, Falling in Reverse, Breaking Benjamin, The Offspring, Staind, Till Lindemann, Chevelle, Dropkick Murphys, Halestorm, Gojira, Seether, In This Moment, Anthrax, Sum 41, Mastodon, Tom Morello, and many additional artists.
In total, nearly 150 music acts will be part of the festival weekend along with Louisville’s finest spirits and top local cuisine.
"We're thrilled to announce that Slayer will be reuniting for an earth-shattering performance at Louder Than Life,” Danny Wimmer of Danny Wimmer Presents said in a news release. ”I was at their last show at The Forum in 2019 and have been working since then to bring them back to the Louder stage. With over 140 bands on five stages, we’re celebrating our 10th Louder Than Life with the biggest lineup yet."
Louder Than Life and DWP’s Louisville companion festival, Bourbon & Beyond, which takes place the previous weekend, generated millions in local economic impact in 2023, and drew more than 300,000 attendees, according to the news release.
“On the heels of an incredible lineup announcement for Bourbon & Beyond, Louder Than Life solidifies why the Kentucky Exposition Center is the number one place to travel to in September,” said David S. Beck, president and CEO of Kentucky Venues. “We anticipate festival-goers from around the world to come for the music and fall in love with all the things that make Kentucky such a great state.”
