Tickets for Upheaval 2026

Tickets go on sale Friday, August 8 at 10 a.m. here, with early bird pricing available while supplies last. If you're planning to go, it's smart to grab yours early—prices go up as each tier sells out.

Who is playing Upheaval in 2026?

While the 2026 Upheaval lineup hasn’t been released yet, there’s already plenty of buzz. Just a few weeks ago, we rocked with Rob Zombie, Falling in Reverse, Architects, Wage War, Taproot, Crossfade, The Funeral Portrait, Dead Poet Society and more.

And in 2024, the lineup included Godsmack, Bad Omens, Sevendust, Badflower, Saliva, Beartooth, Sleep Theory, and Killswitch Engage.

Every year brings a different mix of bands—some legendary, some up-and-coming—but all part of what makes the weekend feel special.

Whether you go for your favorite headliner or just to soak up the scene with friends, Upheaval is a summer tradition for a growing number of music fans in West Michigan.

More details, including the 2026 band lineup, will be announced in the coming months. For now, go ahead and save the date!
