Power to the People Festival Tickets

Tom Morello is bringing his vision of music and activism to life with the Power to the People Festival, landing at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland on Saturday, October 3, 2026. The one-day festival is built around the idea that everyday people, art, and music can drive real change, and the stacked lineup reflects that mission perfectly. Bruce Springsteen and the Foo Fighters headline the bill alongside Joan Baez, Dave Matthews, Brittany Howard, Dropkick Murphys, Public Enemy, Cypress Hill, Killer Mike, Serj Tankian, and many more.

 

The festival features two stages of performances plus a Freedom Village area where nonprofits and grassroots organizations connect with fans, and a portion of every ticket sale benefits VoteRiders and HeadCount. With artwork and a DJ set by Shepard Fairey, sets from Jack Black, grandson, Taylor Momsen, Matt Cameron, and the Linda Lindas, this is a once in a lifetime gathering of legends and rising voices.
