This year’s lineup features Foo Fighters, Green Day, Tool, Pantera, Avenged Sevenfold, Queens of the Stone Age, Weezer, Turnstile, Limp Bizkit, Rancid and many more.
The four-day music festival will happen Sept. 21 through 24 at the Highland Festival Grounds at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville. Four-day and single-day passes to Louder Than Life are already available via the festival’s website.
