Californian heavy metal giants Avenged Sevenfold are the third headliner of the anniversary edition of Rock for People 2025. The band is clearly recognizable thanks to their diverse sound that crosses the boundaries of rock and metal and the dramatic illustrations on their albums, of which they have eight in their career. With memorable live performances, the band has shared festival stages with fellow stars such as Slipknot, Slayer, Disturbed, Korn, Alice in Chains, Slayer and The Offspring, and played as main support on Metallica’s 2017 WorldWired summer stadium tour in the US.
To date, Avenged Sevenfold have sold over 12 million albums worldwide and earned two consecutive No. 1 albums on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums chart (2010’s Nightmare and 2013’s Hail To The King) to go along with over a billion video views and a billion-plus Spotify streams, as well as multiple No. 1 singles on rock radio.
The band (comprising M. Shadows, Synyster Gates, Zacky Vengeance, JohnnyChrist and Brooks Wackerman) are equally known for their spectacular live shows, selling out arenas and headlining the world’s most prestigious rock festivals as well as always being at the forefront of rapidly changing technology, cultural mile markers, and new ways for communities to engage.
