Published on 10/03/2026 at 10:56 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSFoo Fighters play Power To The People at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland, on 3 October 2026. The venue lists gates at noon and the show at 1pm local time, while the one-day programme runs across two stages.
Power To The People brings Foo Fighters to Columbia
The official festival programme lists Foo Fighters among a large bill that includes Bruce Springsteen, Dave Matthews, Tom Morello, Joan Baez and Public Enemy. Bruce Springsteen is billed as a special guest, while Tom Morello is named as the curator. The organisers have planned performances across two stages, and the programme notes that artist set times can change.
The Columbia appearance puts Foo Fighters inside a two-stage festival bill rather than a standalone concert. It gives the Take Cover Tour a festival setting alongside its stadium and arena dates. This combination links the band’s touring format with a mixed live programme built around one day.
Foo Fighters bring their full touring line-up to Maryland
Foo Fighters arrive as a rock band led by Dave Grohl. The tour announcement describes Foo Fighters as Rock and Roll Hall of Famers. It names Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Pat Smear, Chris Shiflett, Rami Jaffee and Ilan Rubin in the touring line-up.
The named musicians place the Columbia appearance in the band’s full touring format rather than a solo performance. The festival setting also broadens the day beyond a conventional Foo Fighters headline show, with artists moving between the two stages.
