Alice Cooper tops GMM bill on Thursday 20 June 2024!


Shock rock legend to headline North Stage.

Last Monday we announced Tool as the main act on our South Stage on Thursday 20 June 2024. With Alice Cooper we can now confirm our North Stage headliner. Earlier this year the legendary shock rocker from Detroit released his 29th studio album with ‘Road’.

For over half a century, Alice Cooper has been synonymous with theatrical live shows featuring electric chairs, guillotines, fake blood, boa constrictors and a ton of hits like ‘School’s Out’, ‘Poison’, ‘Billion Dollar Babies’ and ‘No More Mr. Nice Guy’.
