GWAR, Soulfly & King Parrot

Prepare for a Night of Utter Mayhem: GWAR, Soulfly & King Parrot Invade Newport Music Hall – Will You Survive the Onslaught?

Picture the shriek of guitars, the roar of the crowd, and the relentless surge of energy as three of the most ferocious acts in heavy music converge for one unforgettable night. On Sunday, March 29th, 2026, Columbus, Ohio will tremble as GWAR, Soulfly, and King Parrot bring their legendary stage shows to the iconic Newport Music Hall. If you crave an experience that shatters the ordinary, this is the event your metal heart has been waiting for.

This isn’t your typical concert—it’s a full-scale assault on the senses. GWAR, the infamous shock rock warriors, aren’t just a band; they’re a spectacle. Known for their outrageous costumes, over-the-top theatrics, and gallons of fake blood, GWAR’s live shows are legendary, earning them a cult following and a place in rock history. Expect a barrage of hits from their storied career, all delivered with the irreverence and chaos only GWAR can provide.

Joining the carnage is Soulfly, the groove metal juggernaut led by Max Cavalera, ex-frontman of Sepultura. With a legacy spanning over two decades and a reputation for electrifying live performances, Soulfly will unleash a primal force of tribal rhythms and crushing riffs, tearing through fan favorites and new anthems alike. As Max himself recently declared, “Every Soulfly show is a gathering of tribes—when the riffs hit, we are all united by the power of metal.”

Rounding out the bill is Australia’s King Parrot, renowned for their ferocious energy and tongue-in-cheek humor. Their live sets are a whirlwind of grindcore, punk, and unapologetic chaos, earning accolades from critics and fans worldwide. “We’re here to make you laugh, scream, and lose your mind,” says vocalist Matt Young. “Come ready to party, or don’t come at all!”

Imagine the visuals: GWAR’s monstrous costumes looming over the crowd, Soulfly’s tribal banners flying, King Parrot’s wild antics whipping the pit into a frenzy. Video screens will capture every outrageous moment, while the sound system will make sure every riff hits you right in the chest. This is more than a concert—it’s a rite of passage for any true fan of heavy music.

But that’s not all. This year’s event boasts exclusive features you won’t find anywhere else. Secure a VIP package and get up close and personal with the bands backstage, snagging autographs and photos that will make your friends green with envy. Limited edition tour merchandise will be available only at this show—think rare t-shirts, signed posters, and collectibles that will never be sold again. And for one night only, GWAR is promising a setlist packed with deep cuts and fan favorites, including a special tribute to their late frontman, Oderus Urungus.

Don’t just take our word for it—ask anyone who’s witnessed these bands before. “I’ve seen a lot of concerts, but nothing compares to the madness of GWAR,” raved one fan after last year’s sold-out tour. “It’s not just a show, it’s an experience you’ll never forget.” Past events have sold out in days, with fans traveling from across the country just to be part of the chaos. This is your chance to be part of the next chapter in Newport Music Hall’s storied history.
