Upheaval 2027: an open-air rock weekend on the hill at Belknap Park, Grand Rapids
Upheaval returns on Friday, July 16 and Saturday, July 17, 2027 at Belknap Park, a city park in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Its Tixr ticketing page bills the event as two days of rock, which puts it among the July 2027 festivals and the wider list of festivals in the United States.
Nobody has been named for 2027 yet. To get a sense of the sound, the July 2026 edition gave Saturday's top slot to Papa Roach, with Bilmuri, Jinjer, Silly Goose and Zero 9:36 among the supporting names. Three stages take turns: the Main Stage, the Lookout Stage up on the hilltop, and the Rising Stage, where local and regional groups can apply to play.
GA covers the standing and seating areas plus the food vendors; GA+ adds a shaded lounge with its own bar and separate lines; VIP means a section in front of the Main Stage, doors from 12:45 pm, private restrooms and free water; the Overlook Deck rents private boxes on a platform looking straight at the big stage. At the current tier, a 2-day GA ticket is $85 ($50 for one day), GA+ is $119 ($65) and VIP is $229 ($100), with prices stepping up tier by tier. The Embassy Suites, a quarter hour away on foot, sells two-night bundles that include tickets (guests 21 and over).
Any age can attend, each person with a ticket; under-16s are strongly encouraged to come with a parent, and alcohol is limited to those 21 and up. The grounds are cashless. An empty bottle is fine, outside food and drinks are not, and bags must have a single compartment. Accessible restrooms, a seated accessible section by the Main Stage and a shuttle to the Lookout Stage help visitors with reduced mobility. Premium parking inside the park is sold ahead of time; metered spots are also available in the Monroe North neighborhood. The show goes on whatever the weather; in 2026 gates opened at 1 pm. After-shows take place at The Intersection, with their own tickets.
