Summer Music Spectacle Rock The Bowl Set To Return With Star-studded Line-up Including Sublime With Rome And Pendulum

After a hugely successful debut last year, Rock The Bowl is returning in late 2024 with a star-studded line-up of international and homegrown talent, with a major headliner still to be announced!

Presented by Trademark and The Rock, Rock The Bowl will be held at The Bowl of Brooklands in New Plymouth on December 29. Tickets are on general sale at 7pm on Wednesday, August 7 here: https://www.trademarkgroup.co.nz/

Among the headliners at the summer music spectacle are Californian ska-punk rockers Sublime with Rome – rescheduled after last year’s postponement. Their appearance at Rock The Bowl is part of a 5-date New Zealand tour, which Sublime with Rome has announced will be part of a series of shows that makes up their LAST-EVER world tour. More information on the Sublime with Rome NZ Tour below.

Also on the line-up is one of the biggest electronic acts on the planet, Pendulum, who will be closing the festival with a bang on the main stage with their infamous DJ set.

Joining Sublime with Rome and Pendulum on the Rock The Bowl line-up is a host of NZ music royalty, including hip-hop marvels Home Brew, who return to the Bowl after their chart-topping critically acclaimed 2023 album, RUN IT BACK and a subsequent sold-out nationwide tour.

Also on the bill is synth pop purveyor Ladyhawke, fresh from an international tour and known for hits such as ‘My Delirium,’ ‘Paris Is Burning’ and ‘Black White & Blue’. And music lovers can expect an exhilarating set from crowd favourite Elemeno P.

This marks the second year of Rock The Bowl. Last year, the festival ushered out 2023 with Katchafire, Ocean Alley and Coterie playing to a 6,000+ crowd at the beautiful Bowl of Brooklands.

Forced to postpone their appearance at the inaugural festival last year, Sublime with Rome is thrilled to make it up to their New Zealand fans by kicking off their New Zealand tour - the last leg on their farewell world tour - as Rock The Bowl’s 2024 headliner.

“We cannot wait to come down under and play our final shows with Sublime with Rome this summer. New Zealand will officially be our last tour so make sure you come out and sing with us one last time,” says Rome.

Following Rock The Bowl, Sublime with Rome will head to Coroglen near Whitianga on December 30, with support from the Flaxxies. They’ll see in the new year at Brew Year’s Eve – Brewtown in Upper Hutt on December 31, before starting the new year off in style with concerts at Black Barn in Havelock North on January 2 and then Bay Park Arena at Mount Maunganui on January 3 – both dates will have Elemeno P in support.
