The final pieces are falling into place for Milwaukee Metal Fest 2026, and Sunday is shaping up to be an absolute crusher. The festival has officially revealed the complete lineup for Sunday, June 7, welcoming Napalm Death, Primitive Man, and Face Yourself to an already stacked bill.
The newly announced acts join a ferocious Sunday roster headlined by Ministry, alongside John Bush performing his Anthrax era, All Shall Perish celebrating 20 years of The Price of Existence, Integrity, UADA, Deadguy, Waking the Cadaver, and many more.
Set to return to The Rave/Eagles Club in Milwaukee, the festival will run June 5–7, 2026, with a free pre-party on Thursday, June 4 for fans who purchase a three-day festival pass. That kickoff event alone reads like a headliner’s dream, featuring Acid Bath, Killswitch Engage, Obituary, Agalloch, and additional acts still to be announced.
True to its legacy, Milwaukee Metal Fest 2026 will once again span a vast spectrum of heavy music, including death metal, doom, hardcore, metalcore, thrash, industrial, and underground extremity. Performances will be spread across multiple stages, while a dedicated festival floor will host exclusive band merch, vinyl, collectibles, and rare items throughout the weekend.
Three-day passes, two-day passes, single-day tickets, and a limited number of reserved seats are on sale now, with more bands still to be announced.
