BRING ME THE HORIZON And IRON MAIDEN To Be Two Of Five Headliners At 2026’s Rock For People In The Czech Republic
Rock For People in the Czech Republic are becoming one of the best known names in eastern Europe for their larger-than-life festival and heavy-hitting headliners. For 2025 – the festival’s 30th anniversary – they welcomed Linkin Park, Avenged Sevenfold, Slipknot, Sex Pistols, and Guns N’ Roses as their headliners over the five-day stretch. It was Rock For People‘s first year doing a five-day line-up, and next year, they’re continuing the action.
Rock For People 2026 have confirmed today (24th September) they will be hosting a five-day festival again, announcing that Bring Me The Horizon and Iron Maiden will be headlining two of the five days. Bring Me The Horizon will headline on Friday, the 12th of June 2026, and Iron Maiden will be taking the stage for Rock For People‘s ‘Special Day’ on Sunday, the 14th of June 2026.
Kicking off on the 10th of June 2026, it’s over 120 hours of some of the best acts that the alternative scene has to offer. There are quite a few established veterans confirmed for next year’s lineup, such as Breaking Benjamin, Megadeth, Papa Roach, Blood Incantation, and The Pretty Reckless.
The otherworldly festival is known for its obscure location on old, abandoned Soviet bunkers, with merch stands and makeshift bars crammed into the concrete spaces. Outside of the bunkers though lays a vast field – with minimal hills – littered with dozens of food and drink vendors, activity booths, an art and fashion area, and numerous festival stages.
The 31st edition of Rock For People has confirmed 25 acts in total today, but are known for their extensive lineups that can exceed over 150 bands. Tickets for 2026’s festival will be on sale tomorrow (25th September), with single-day, four-day, and five-day tickets available for purchase with options for VIP or Comfy+ upgrades.
