Nova Rock festival announce first confirmed acts for 2026!
While Nova Rock 2025 is in full swing, organizers shares first confirmed acts for next year’s edition of the festival, which will take place on its annual home, Pannonia fields in Nickelsdorf, from June 11th to 14th (Thursday – Sunday).

After two years, Bring Me The Horizon will return once again as one of the festival headliners. With several platinum -certified albums, Grammy and BRIT Award nominations under their belt, the four-piece from England’s Shieffield is cementing its status as one of the most successful rock bands in the world.
Bring Me The Horizon are not afraid to tear down barriers, not giving a damn about the usual order of things. In terms of sound, they dive into everything from raw deathcore and electronics to metal experiments, with subtle elements of pop, punk, nu-metal and emo aesthetics. Their music feels like an effort to tear apart the old empty world and accelerate its end with ruthless guitars and the heart-wrenching vocal expression of the its frontman Oli Sykes, hitting the listener like a wave of tsunami.
Returning to Nova Rock festival in 2026 will be also one of the most successful punk-rock bands of all time, The Offspring. With over 40 million records sold, several billion streams on Spotify and eleven studio albums under their belt, they are back on the road and nothing’s stopping them. Even after more than 40 years, the Californians are still full of fire, joy and energy, which you can hear both live and on their latest studio album Supercharged (2024). Expect a set packed with recognisable hooks and plenty of crowd movement.
Tickets for 2026 festival for an early-stage discounted price will be on sale again from Monday, June 16th, 12:00pm. You can get them at www.novarock.at/tickets and/or www.oeticket.com.
