This year’s M3 Rock Festival was held in July after being postponed three times due to the coronavirus pandemic. M3, which stands for May Merriweather Metal, is usually held in May.

M3 Rock Festival has become an annual pilgrimage for fans of 1980s rock, with up to 15,000 fans attending the event per day.

“We have people come from all over the world,” director of operations Brad Canfield told WTOP. “We’ve had people from Australia, a lot from Europe. It’s the one place where if you’re into ’80s hair metal, you can see all these bands perform in one location over three days.”

He added: “It’s definitely a multigenerational event where parents, even grandparents, come to the festival and bring their kids. Their kids have listened to it in their parents’ car and get excited about the music and come, so we are noticing a new generation of fans that are younger and younger that have grown to appreciate this music.”
