Milwaukee Metal Fest's full lineup for its June 4–7 run at The Rave/Eagles Ballroom was finalised in mid-March, confirming ACID BATH on Friday, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE on Saturday, and MINISTRY closing the festival on Sunday. Additional notable acts include Suicidal Tendencies, OBITUARY, NAPALM DEATH, and Machine Head, alongside dozens of metal and metal-adjacent artists across multiple stages.
A Thursday pre-party hosted by Jasta & Friends is included free for three-day pass holders. The festival's inclusion of ACID BATH marks one of the reunited New Orleans sludge/doom band's most anticipated performances of the year.
