The second annual Monster Energy Rock Allegiance built on its record-setting first year success, as the Northeast’s biggest rock experience became a full weekend affair Saturday, September 17 and Sunday, September 18 at Talen Energy Stadium in Chester, PA, just outside of Philadelphia. Headlining sets from Avenged Sevenfold and Alice In Chains – joined onstage at one point by The Cult’s Billy Duffy – were only the capstone to an unforgettable weekend that included performances from Slayer, The Offspring, Breaking Benjamin, Volbeat and many others. With mouth-watering, Philly-centric Gourmet Man Food, regional and national craft beer, band meet-and-greets, autograph signings, and more, fans from around the country--and spanning generations--were fully immersed in rock and roll culture.

 

Presenting radio station 93.3 WMMR captured the excitement of Monster Energy Rock Allegiance with live broadcasts from the event on both Saturday and Sunday.

 

Monster Energy Rock Allegiance is produced by Danny Wimmer Presents and presented locally by Live Nation in association with Spectra by Comcast Spectacor, the providers of Venue Management, Food Services & Hospitality, and Ticketing & Fan Engagement to Talen Energy Stadium.

 

Talen Energy Stadium is a state-of-the-art Major League Soccer stadium that serves as the home to Philadelphia Union and is located at 1 Stadium Drive in Chester, PA, just outside Philadelphia.

 

The festival was fueled by Monster Energy. Additional sponsors included Jack Daniel's, Zippo Encore, The Music Experience, FYE, Roadrunner Records, Razor & Tie Records, 93.3 WMMR, Fxck Cancer/Dyin2Live, and more.
