Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie are two of the acts coming to this summer’s Heavy Montreal festival.

Organizers announced the line-up on Wednesday morning for the event, which runs July 28 and 29 in Jean Drapeau Park.

Also set to get heads banging are Avenged Sevenfold, Hollywood Undead, and Gojira.

Manson played Heavy Montreal in 2012 and Zombie was there in 2010 and 2013.

This will be the ninth Heavy Montreal since it was launched in 2008 (there was no festival in 2009 and 2017). Over the years it has hosted bands like Iron Maiden, Metallica and Mötley Crüe as well as acts like Marilyn Manson and Alice Cooper. 

The day before Heavy Montreal, the festival site hosts '77 Montreal, headlined by Rise Against and featuring a line-up of punk acts, including Suicidal Tendencies, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, and The Rezillos.

Passes for both festivals (and the combined Weekend Warrior passes) go on sale Feb. 23 at noon.
