Aftershock is nine days out from Discovery Park — Thursday through Sunday, October 1–4, 2026 in Sacramento — with My Chemical Romance, Limp Bizkit, Pierce The Veil, and Tool closing the nights across five stages.
Passes are still on the board. 4-Day, 2-Day, and single-day GA, VIP, and Capital Club lanes (plus GOVX and student single-day when listed). All-in levels climb by allotment, so compare tiers on the passes hub, then confirm live pricing on Front Gate before you buy. Admission, camping, and Park & Ride shuttles sell separately. All-ages, rain-or-shine.
First-year camping lands at Cal Expo. Campgrounds open Wednesday, September 30 at noon and run through Monday noon — Car + Tent, General RV (no power / with power), and Premium RV full hookup, plus an Overnight Companion Vehicle add-on when available. You need a festival pass and a camping wristband to enter; each site includes one Camping Vehicle Pass, showers/water/toilets, camp store access, 24-hour security/medical, fest re-entry during event hours, and the Wednesday Rock & Brews campground pre-party. Shuttle passes are not included. Lock a site on the camping tab before you roll onto Exposition Boulevard.
No general on-site parking — plan the Park & Ride. Discovery Park keeps general lots off the footprint (limited ADA only). The cleanest car plan is free parking at Cal Expo plus a nonstop shuttle to the Garden Highway gate. Shuttles start ~60 minutes before gates, run all day with limited mid-evening service, and continue ~75 minutes after the show. Each rider needs their own daily or weekend shuttle pass. Rideshare, SacRT, and bike valet notes live on the festival info hub. Expect metal detectors and a tight bag policy; pack light.
Grab your days on the passes hub, reserve first-year Cal Expo camping if you are staying over, and dig shuttle / gates / FAQ details on the Aftershock 2026 event page. Verify current prices and hours on the official Aftershock site before you leave for Sacramento.
