Sea.Hear.Now Festival will return to the beach in Asbury Park on Sept. 19 and 20, a week later than its usual weekend.
Tickets are not yet on sale and there is no release date for the lineup, but you can book a hotel through the festival here.
Here’s who we think might headline:
Bon Jovi
Jon Bon Jovi is back with his band and on a huge reunion tour throughout a few major cities, including New York City at Madison Square Garden and London at Wembley Stadium.
He has a nice opening the week after his last tour date for a Sea.Hear.Now appearance.
My Chemical Romance
My Chemical Romance is skipping New Jersey on the band’s next tour. Is it because they were here last year? Probably. But it’s a big possibility, especially because they’re headlining Louder Than Life in Louisville a few days before.
The Strokes
I only say this because this band seems to be everywhere next year. They’ll be headlining Bonnaroo in Tennessee and are rumored for the Governors Ball in Queens.
