David Lee Roth will headline the 2025 M3 Rock Festival on May 3 at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland.
The rocker will perform for the first time in over five years.
The festival’s 16th edition also features a reunion of Stephen Pearcy and Warren DeMartini. Accept, Winger, Slaughter, Steven Adler, and Sebastian Bach will also take the stage on Friday, May 2.
Roth’s last show was on March 10, 2020, opening for KISS in Lubbock, Texas. Roth had planned a farewell residency in Las Vegas for early 2022 but instead announced his retirement from touring when the shows were postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He stated at the time, “It’s not about me anymore.”
Although Roth has kept a low profile, he has reportedly performed some private events and shared new songs, along with re-recorded Van Halen covers on his YouTube channel.
Presale tickets will be available on January 29 at 12:00 pm EST, and general sales start on Friday, January 31 through Ticketmaster.
