Using sponsorship to deliver a lower ticket price and an enhanced concert experience, tour organizers have once again joined forces with Rockstar Energy Drink. Mayhem producer John Reese promises that fans will not be disappointed. “Given the great success of last year’s festival, we knew that we needed to put together a stellar group of talent for 2009—and we have” says Reese. Slayer, Cannibal Corpse, and Trivium will be joined by Killswitch Engage, Behemoth, and many others. “This will be a blockbuster event, one that blends thrilling live performances with special music-related events and a few yet-to-be-revealed surprises. The result is a concert experience like no other. We’re extremely excited to get the show on the road” Reese said. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased here.

Not only will fans be surrounded by mind blowing music, but they will also be able to take part in a number of festival activities. Fans will be able to visit vendors, play the newest video games, attend autograph sessions, and experience the excitement of motocross team, Metal Mulisha.

The Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival is the brainchild of Kevin Lyman, John Reese and Darryl Eaton, the creative team behind some of the industry’s most successful road jaunts, including the long-running Vans Warped Tour .
