It's official: AC/DC, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Guns N' Roses, Ozzy Osbourne and Tool confirmed for first ever Power Trip Festival

Brian Johnson, Axl Rose, James Hetfield, Bruce Dickinson, Ozzy Osbourne and Maynard James Keenan on stage at various points through the years

It's been the worst kept secret in the music industry this year, and now it's finally been made official: the first ever Power Trip Festival is taking place this October in California, and it's packing the biggest set of headliners in the history of hard rock and heavy metal.

Taking place from Friday October 6 to Sunday October 8 at the Empire Polo Club In Indio, California (the home of Coachella Festival, no less), Power Trip will be headlined by Guns N' Roses and Iron Maiden (Friday), AC/DC and Ozzy Osbourne (Saturday) and Metallica and Tool (Sunday). The festival marks the live return of AC/DC with Brian Johnson for the first time since 2016, as well as Ozzy Osbourne's first full headline set since his retirement from touring earlier this year.
