Czech fest Rock For People opens to record-breaking 40,000 fans today

Happy Rock For People day! The Czech festival is celebrating a record-breaking year in 2024 as 40,000 music fans begin to descend on Park 360 in Hradec Králové.

Today (Wednesday, June 12), the line-up welcomes headliners The Prodigy and P.O.D. – who have come in as a last-minute replacement for Bad Omens – plus the likes of Corey Taylor, Enter Shikari, Thy Art Is Murder and loads more throughout the day.

For the next three days after that until Saturday, June 15 there’s the perfect mix of massive superstars like Bring Me The Horizon, Parkway Drive, The Offspring, Avril Lavigne, YUNGBLUD, Body Count and Kerry King, and rising K! favourites such as Pinkshift, Scowl, Dying Wish, VUKOVI, Delilah Bon and more.

“We are preparing our fans an experience with an unparalleled diversity and atmosphere,” announces festival director Michal Thomes. “We are particular about creating an eventful program, which is why we have invited over 130 bands and dozens of other artists for the non-musical program to perform at Rock For People this year.

“Given the extent of the program, which includes both the biggest world stars as well as the up-and-coming ones, Rock For People is the cultural event of the year.”

Plus, to celebrate this amazing year, we’ve also teamed up with Rock For People for an exclusive collab tee that you can grab from the merch stand!
