The Garden State is the place to be this summer (and fall).
From June through October, Holmdel’s PNC Bank Arts Center is hosting a number of legendary icons and up-and-coming acts at their spacious outdoor venue that fits approximately 17,500 guests.
Best of all, they’ve got a little something for fans of all genres.
Artists on this year’s calendar run the gamut of classic rock, Hip-Hop, heavy metal, EDM, country, folk, pop, R&B and more.
Just a few of the most notable names headed to Holmdel these next few months include party-starters Pitbull with Lil Jon (Sept. 3), mellow rockers Jack Johnson with Hermanos Gutierrez (June 21), Americana hitmaker Riley Green (June 18), controversial singer-songwriter Jason Aldean (July 17) and ’00s heroes Ne-Yo and Akon (July 19).
They’ll be joined by biggies like Weird Al (July 12), Sammy Hagar (June 22), Tim McGraw (July 10), John Mellencamp (July 25) and Wu-Tang Clan with Bon Thugs-N-Harmony (Sept. 11).
That’s not to mention Santana with The Doobie Brothers (June 27), The Guess Who with Don Felder of Eagles (July 5), Train with Barenaked Ladies (July 24), Lynyrd Skynyrd with Foreigner (July 26) and Mötley Crüe with Tesla (July 31).
Plus, we’d be absolutely remiss if we didn’t point out that TLC is swinging by with special guests Salt-N-Pepa and En Vogue on Saturday, Sept. 12.
In total, there are 38 (!) shows left on the 2026 schedule.
