Boardwalk Rock will return to Ocean City, Maryland, on May 14–16, 2027. Iron Maiden, Korn and Bad Omens lead the lineup announced October 20, expanding the event into three days of rock and metal.
Additional artists include Alice in Chains, Breaking Benjamin, Good Charlotte, the Prodigy, Judas Priest and Cypress Hill. The festival’s location also gives attendees access to Jolly Roger at the Pier within the grounds, with nearby boardwalk businesses adding dining and shopping options.
Ticket sales began October 22, with single-day and three-day admission plus several premium tiers. The packages differ in viewing areas, lounge access and included food or drink, so the official comparison is useful before choosing a pass. The published lineup provides the starting point for planning, while daily schedules and performance times will require separate confirmation closer to the festival.
