Aftershock 2025 Draws Record-Breaking Crowd Of Over 164,000 Fans, The Largest In The Festival’s History

The West Coast’s Ultimate Rock, Punk & Metal Destination 115+ Bands • 4 Unforgettable Days • Fans From Every Corner of the Globe

Danny Wimmer Presents’ record-breaking 2025 festival season concluded October 2–5 with the largest Aftershock in history — drawing over 164,000 fans from all 50 states and more than 30 countries to Sacramento’s Discovery Park, generating an estimated $35 million in local economic impact.

The West Coast’s biggest rock, punk, and metal festival reached new heights in 2025.

Debuting in 2025, Aftershock introduced several new fan-favorite experiences that elevated the festival weekend to new heights. The Capitol Club offered an all-inclusive oasis with premium amenities and elevated views of the main stage, while Tremors Dive Bar kept the energy high with a pop-up set by DJ Rock Feed with surprise guests My Darkest Days, and a special Sunday takeover by Sacramento’s own The Jungle Bird. Fans also discovered spontaneous performances at Beatbox and a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it speakeasy hidden beneath the underpass — each adding to the sense of discovery and excitement that defined this year’s festival.

To celebrate DWP’s cultural and economic impact to the region, Sacramento Mayor Kevin McCarty, Senator Angelique Ashby, and Assemblymember Maggy Krell honored Danny Wimmer Presents with official recognitions from the City of Sacramento, the California State Senate, and the California State Assembly. The proclamation and resolutions celebrate Aftershock’s decade-long legacy, recognizing its profound cultural, economic, and charitable contributions to the Sacramento community and beyond, and highlighting how the festival has firmly established the city as a premier destination for live music in California.

The 2026 dates for Aftershock will be announced in the coming months along with early bird tickets, allowing fans to lock-in lower level pricing and maximum payment plan options. Fans are encouraged to stay tuned to the festival’s official social media channels and AftershockFestival.com.

In addition to music performances, this year’s edition of Aftershock featured various partner onsite activations, award-winning beverages and delectable eats from partners including Animal Place, Astral Tequila, Beatbox Beverages, Black Shades, Blackcraft, Body Art Express, California Army National Guard, Coors Light, Don Julio, Eargasm, Freak On a Leash, Fxck Cancer, Golden State Cider, Hyatt Vacation Club, Jack Daniel's, Jeffree Star Cosmetics, Little Rocker Clothing, Mortus Viventi, Nowhere Fast, Parlor Root Beer, Red Bull, Sierra Nevada, Strüng, Take Me Home, The Pretty Cult, Tito's Handmade Vodka, To Write Love on Her Arms, Topo Chico Hard Seltzer, and Waterloo Sparkling Water.

Aftershock is proud to partner with Visit Sacramento and is produced by Los Angeles-based Danny Wimmer Presents, one of the largest independent producers of destination music festivals in America.

0:04 Hey, you love then too, Yes, that's true. Why Gray you? It's his pipe man here on the adventureds Pipe Man W four c Y Radio and I'm here. With giddy whoo. Yeah after Shock man, How do you love this festival? Like? It's great, it's incredible. This is our first time here at After Shock and yeah we've had a blast. It was a great show. Great crowd es couldn't be better, right, free pizza, free trip bar. Yeah you know, of course you probably didn't get to do that. Yeah, you've been so busy, didn't get to do that.

0:50 But so what makes this festival different than other festivals you've done? Oh, the other ones aren't in Sacramento. That's a good answer. Yeah, I mean that is true. A lot of the festivals have a similar vibe. No, this one it feels it does feel a little chiller though. That's a big one. There's real grass instead of AstroTurf. Right, I feel like that's nice. I really like the nature feel. Also. The one thing that I do want to point out is that the weather has been very temperate. It hasn't been too hot like Kentucky or like some of this other Oh my, yess that we've played this year a lot less spicy. How'd you even play louder in Life in that heat? It's hot? Oh my goshly lucked out.

1:32 The day that we played it was okay ish. It was still hot, but it was okay ish. And so what I like to ask everybody, has Danny Wimmer treat you guys as an artist? Awesome? Yeah? Every Danny Wimmer festival has been incredible. Yeah, I'm pretty sure now since we've been back playing shows over the last three years, I think we've played every Danny Wimmer Presents festival that's out there, Like we've done After Shocks on Temple Rockville. Did you do anging? Yep? Yeah, Incarceration was that July? Yes? Oh my god, zero time flies, right. It certainly does. But yeah, I mean they're amazing. So yeah, Like, how awesome was it to play at Shawshank Prison?

2:12 That was very cool? That was very cool, right, got to do a little bit of a tour in there. We were on the Paranormal Prison show, which yeah you were ye, so cool. Came out and so we did the like creepy medium thing and like we got some ghosts talking to us on the Spooky Machine and it was awesome. Good thing. It wasn't possibly real ones because Waylon revs of a killer's confession. He filmed the video in the torture room in that prison, and he came out with scratches all over his body. Geez, right, got like the nice ghosts? I know, right? They liked you. Yeah, they liked you. And let's talk about your new EP because it.

2:56 Is bad ass you thank you well. We re recorded some of our favorite songs from Spit to celebrate the twenty fifth anniversary, and we went back in the studio with Garthur Richardson, who we recorded Spit originally with, and I mean it turned out amazing. It's in the culmination of twenty five years of blood, sweat and tears. And we can't believe that we're celebrating twenty five year milestone. I know, is it weird? Like it's weird. How did it's twenty five years go by that quickly? Unbelievable, unbelievable. But we're happy to be here though, and it's been a great experience, and we're so happy that we've been afforded the opportunity to be able to re record these songs and bring them into twenty twenty five.

3:39 And you know what I really love. I have three daughters and a bunch of granddaughters, and you guys are like the best influence for them in my opinion. I'm so glad that you think so thank you. Listen, thank you. I come from a time in the eighties where we were freaking stupid. I think women are way more badass and mental metal and you guys are the queen so think. Thank you. I appreciate I will take that. Thank you well. Thank you for being here at Aftershock and all the Danny Wimmer festivals, and thanks for being on the Adventures of Pipe Man. Thank you so much.
