Zakk Wylde\u2019s Berzerkus Festival returns in 2026 with two exclusive dates in the Northeast, and the lineup is stacked. Lamb of God headlines both nights alongside Black Label Society, Down, Suicidal Tendencies, Zakk Sabbath, and Dark Chapel. <\/p>\n

Berzerkus is not a traditional touring festival. Zakk Wylde curates it as a standalone event experience, expanded to two dates for 2026. Both shows feature the same core lineup, with additional activities running alongside the music, including a car show, a battle of the bands, a strongman competition, a hot sauce-eating competition, Ride for Dime, and The Music Experience. More acts are set to be announced.<\/p>\n

Friday, August 28, takes place at The Pavilion at Montage Mountain in Scranton, PA. Saturday, August 29, moves to Northwell at Jones Beach Theater in Wantagh, NY. Down\u2019s appearance marks their first NYC-area performance since 2015. Fan Halen, Bonfire, and Use Your Illusion appear on the Scranton date only.<\/p>\n
