Frequently Asked Questions

Is State Champs really playing in Daytona Beach on May 7, 2026?

Yes, State Champs are scheduled to perform in Daytona Beach, Florida on Thursday, May 7, 2026 as part of the Welcome To Rockville festival at Daytona International Speedway. Festival listings and local event calendars show State Champs on the Rockville lineup for that date at the World Center of Racing, alongside a long list of rock, metal, and alternative bands across the four-day weekend. Instead of a stand‑alone headlining concert, this appearance is one set within the broader Welcome To Rockville 2026 festival.

What is Welcome To Rockville, and how does State Champs fit into it?

Welcome To Rockville is a large, multi-day rock and metal festival held at Daytona International Speedway, running May 7–10, 2026, with more than 160 bands scheduled across multiple stages.

Headliners include massive acts like Foo Fighters, My Chemical Romance, Guns N’ Roses, Bring Me The Horizon, and more, while State Champs appear in the pop‑punk and alt‑rock tier of the lineup alongside bands such as Switchfoot, The Home Team, Gym Class Heroes, Four Year Strong, and The Wonder Years. That means their set will be one of many across the weekend, offering a high‑energy break of melodic pop‑punk within a mostly heavier rock and metal bill.

What date and time will State Champs likely play at Rockville?

Festival announcements and local event listings associate State Champs with Thursday, May 7, 2026, which is the opening day of Welcome To Rockville at Daytona International Speedway.

A detailed Clashfinder schedule draft places State Champs in an early‑evening slot around 5:00–5:30 PM on one of the festival stages, though exact times are always subject to change as the festival approaches and the official schedule is confirmed. Rockville’s info page notes that gates typically open between 11:00 AM and noon, with final set times released about two weeks before the festival via the website and mobile app, so fans should check the official schedule closer to May 2026 to know exactly when to catch State Champs.

Where is Daytona International Speedway, and what is the festival layout like?

Daytona International Speedway sits at 1801 West International Speedway Boulevard, Daytona Beach, FL, known worldwide as the “World Center of Racing” and home of NASCAR’s Daytona 500.

For Welcome To Rockville, the infield and surrounding festival areas are transformed into a massive multi‑stage concert site with main stages, secondary stages, merchandise areas, food and drink vendors, lockers, and camping zones. Fans can spend the day walking between stages to catch different artists, with State Champs positioned among a packed daily lineup that encourages you to plan your day so you do not miss their set.

What are the bag, item, and security policies for Welcome To Rockville?

The Welcome To Rockville festival info page strongly encourages fans not to bring bags at all, but if you must, you must follow the festival’s bag policy, which bans large bags, backpacks, duffle bags, coolers, and hydration packs while allowing only bags that meet specific size and style rules.

Prohibited items include metal drink containers like large insulated bottles, umbrellas, chairs, Camelbaks, aerosol cans, and many other objects often restricted at large events, and all attendees will pass through security screening before entering the festival grounds. To get in quickly and avoid being turned away at the gate, bring just a small compliant bag or no bag, keep valuables minimal, and check the most current list of allowed and prohibited items on the festival site as the event approaches.

How does re‑entry work, and can I come and go during the day?

Welcome To Rockville has a strict no re‑entry policy for most attendees: once you scan your wristband and enter the festival for the day, you are not allowed to leave and come back in.

The only exceptions are for people with on‑site camping wristbands or those who purchased specific Hotel + Admission packages, who may have limited re‑entry privileges as outlined in their package details. Because you cannot freely come and go, plan your day so you have everything you need before entering—comfortable clothes, sunscreen, earplugs, refillable plastic water bottle, and any medications within the festival’s rules—so you can stay through State Champs’ set and the headliners without needing to leave.

What are the parking and transportation options for Daytona International Speedway?

Daytona International Speedway has multiple large parking lots surrounding the track, and festival info notes that while the event is cashless inside the venue, cash will still be accepted for day‑of‑show parking purchases.

Because thousands of fans arrive over the four Rockville days, traffic can be heavy around International Speedway Boulevard, so getting there early in the day helps you secure a decent parking spot and reduces stress before you head into the festival grounds. To manage costs, consider carpooling with friends to split parking fees, checking festival communications for any shuttles or rideshare zones, and budgeting extra time for getting out of the lots after headliners finish each night.

What can I bring to stay comfortable and safe at an outdoor festival set like this?

Welcome To Rockville allows small point‑and‑shoot cameras, hats, sunglasses, sealed cigarettes or cigars, vape pens, earplugs, and refillable water bottles as long as they are not metal or glass and follow the size and material rules, plus there are complimentary water refill stations throughout the grounds.

Comfortable shoes, breathable clothing, sunscreen, earplugs, and a light non‑metal refillable bottle will go a long way toward keeping you safe and comfortable while watching high‑energy bands like State Champs under Florida’s sun and evening heat. Lockers with phone chargers are available to rent by the day or for the entire weekend, letting you store extra layers, phone batteries, or merch so you can move freely between stages without carrying everything on you all day.

How much do Welcome To Rockville tickets cost, and how can I get cheap tickets to see State Champs?

Welcome To Rockville tickets are sold as multi‑day passes and single‑day tickets, with four‑day passes listed on ticket sites and official sellers and individual day tickets often released or repriced closer to the festival; prices vary by tier and demand, with early‑bird passes typically cheaper than later waves.

If you mainly want to see State Champs and a few other Thursday bands, a single‑day Thursday ticket is usually cheaper than a full four‑day pass, while a four‑day pass can be good value if you plan to attend multiple days of headliners and bigger acts. To get the best deal, buy as early as possible when new price tiers open, compare official sellers with reputable resale platforms, and always check the full price including fees before you purchase so you do not get surprised by add‑ons at checkout.

What are some smart strategies to keep the overall Rockville/State Champs experience affordable?

Start by deciding whether you want a single‑day ticket for May 7 or a four‑day pass, and then set a total budget that includes travel, lodging (if needed), parking, food, drinks, and merch so you know your limits before you start booking.

You can cut costs by sharing a hotel or Airbnb with friends, carpooling to split parking, bringing a compliant refillable water bottle to use at the free water stations, and eating a substantial meal before you enter the no‑re‑entry festival grounds so you rely less on higher‑priced food inside. For tickets, watch for early‑bird sales, payment plans, and occasional promo codes from the festival or sponsors, and if you are flexible, keep an eye on reputable resale sites as the festival nears—sometimes sellers lower prices on passes they can no longer use, letting you grab a cheaper ticket to see State Champs at Daytona International Speedway without blowing your budget.
