M3 Rock Festival 2024 will kick off Saturday, May 4, at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland, with performances from Queensrÿche, Stephen Pearcy of Ratt, Last in Line, Quiet Riot, Lynch Mob, Doro, Aldo Nova, Child’s Play, Fan Halen and more. The two-day festival continues Sunday, May 5, featuring performances by Night Ranger, Stryper, Y&T, Faster Pussycat, Cold Sweat, Pretty Boy Floyd and Sun Dogs before closing with a full headlining set by Bret Michaels and special guest Dee Snider with an exclusive encore jam session featuring anyone and everyone from this year’s lineup.
“I’m truly excited to be back at M3,” Bret Michaels said . “It’s a great rock festival, and I promise you I’m bringing all killer hits, no filler, and a big show! I want the fans to unleash their inner rock star.”
Over the past 15 years, M3 has become more than a festival; it’s an ‘80s arena rock experience. Drawing diehard fans from six continents, 30 countries and every state, M3 has evolved into an annual pilgrimage for those who grew up with ‘80s rock (a genre of music now referred to as the “new classic rock”), as well as for younger fans who embrace the fun and excitement of the glam metal era.
Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, Dec. 15, via Ticketmaster.com or the Merriweather Post Pavilion box office. Ticket link and pricing will be available soon.
