Festival Passes, Demand, And Multi-City Context
All Things Go Festival’s DC run at Merriweather Post Pavilion (September 25–27) offers a 3-Day Pass covering all three days and 2-Day Passes that let buyers choose any two days. Single-day tickets are also available. The festival has sold out at Merriweather Post Pavilion for five consecutive years, from 2021 through 2025, and the 2026 DC edition spans 47 acts across two stages (the Pavilion and Chrysalis stages) over three days. The festival also runs concurrent editions in New York at Forest Hills Stadium (September 25–27) and in Toronto, which took place June 6–7 at RBC Amphitheatre, headlined by Kesha and Lorde with The Beaches and Wet Leg also on the bill.
For Power to the People Festival, all four ticket tiers (People’s Park GA Lawn, People’s Pavilion GA Pavilion, Solidarity Circle VIP, and Robinhood Package VIP Super Suite) are listed as sold out on the official festival site. The event features two performance stages and the Freedom Village activation space. Tom Morello summarized the concept: “The Power To The People festival is about freedom, justice, equality and rock and roll. It’s about the power everyday human beings have when they come together through music, art, community, and action.”
Season Patterns And Emerging Artist Storylines
The fall 2026 Merriweather calendar is defined by festival clustering. Three consecutive weekends in late September and early October feature All Things Go Music Festival (September 25–27), Power to the People Festival (October 3), Logic & G-Eazy: The Endless Summer Part II (October 4), and beabadoobee’s Powerlines Tour stop (October 10).
Genre spread is wide, with indie-pop and alternative dominant at All Things Go, rock and hip-hop with activist-oriented legacy acts anchoring Power to the People, hip-hop headlining October 4, and alternative and indie rock closing the outdoor season on October 10.
The activist thread running through Power to the People, with proceeds directed to VoteRiders and HeadCount, gives the October 3 date a civic dimension that stands apart from a standard festival booking. All Things Go, meanwhile, has built a reputation as a community-driven independent festival in North America, reinforced by its multi-city footprint and consistent sell-out performance.
From a discovery standpoint, the fall run places OnesToWatch-tracked artists Logic, SYML, MUNA, Jake Minch, Wisp, and grandson on the same venue calendar as established headliners. That mix reflects how emerging artists often move from support slots and festival mid-bills toward eventual headline status.

Parking is free and included with every ticket, with over a dozen lots around downtown Columbia. ADA parking is available in Lots 2 and 4.

Guests may bring one factory-sealed or empty water bottle and one personal food item in a clear, non-glass container. Merriweather Post Pavilion operates as a smoke-free venue under Howard County Code Subtitle 6 (Sec. 12.602), which generally prohibits smoking in public places, subject to limited exceptions such as outdoor seating areas, theatrical performances, and private clubs, and the venue states violators may be ejected without refund.
Merriweather Post Pavilion’s commonly cited total capacity is approximately 19,319, comprising roughly 5,000–7,000 covered pavilion seats and 12,000–14,000 general admission lawn seats, though other sources list slightly different figures such as 19,300 or 19,316 total and 4,500 covered with 8,000 lawn.
