The festival will also include a concourse midway featuring band autograph signings, vendors and other activities.

Main stage artist Neil Sanderson of Three Days Grace notes, "In the slightest chance that the Mayan calendar is right, and the world is ending in 2012, then this could technically be the last big rock tour in the history of human existence."
