In its eighth year, Columbus, Ohio’s Rock on the Range festival has expanded to a full three-day lineup, with Guns N’ Roses, Avenged Sevenfold and Kid Rock serving as the 2014 headliners. The full lineup for the hard rock fest, taking place from May 16-18 at Columbus Crew Stadium, was announced on Thursday (Jan. 16).
After last year’s festival expanded from a two-day festival to a two-and-a-half day guitar showcase, Rock on the Range will feature acts like Five Finger Death Punch, Staind, Mastodon and the Pretty Reckless over a full three-day span. The ROTR Comedy Tent is also returning, with Jim Breuer and Jim Florentine among the performers.
