LOUDER THAN LIFE NEW HEADLINER.jpeg

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Louder Than Life announced its lineup Wednesday for the 2022 show, four days headlined by Nine Inch Nails, Slipknot, Kiss and Red Hot Chili Peppers.

The festival, slated for Sept. 22-25 at the Highland Festival Ground at the Kentucky Exposition Center, features some of the best acts across 40 years of rock music.

In addition to the four headliners, Evanescence, Shinedown, Alice Cooper, Alice in Chains, Incubus and Papa Roach are scheduled to perform.

As one of the top 15 tourism events in Louisville, the four-day festival is predicted to bring in more than $10 million to the city. 

"They're going to trickle down their spending so it's going to be in our hotels and our short-term rentals. It's going to be in our bars and our restaurants, Rosanne Mastin, a spokesperson for Louisville Tourism said.  

"They're going to visit our attractions and distilleries and use our rideshares and taxis so it's really going to give tourism some love throughout all of our communities within Louisville."

The festival rebounded from a canceled 2020 show with an average of 35,000 people per day in September 2021.
