Disturbed and Lamb of God are filling Summerfest’s last slot for 2022.

They're two of more than 40 new headliners revealed for the Milwaukee music festival Monday — along with the full festival lineup.

The hard-rock bands will play the 23,000-person-capacity American Family Insurance Amphitheater June 30, with Chevelle opening. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday at the box office and ticketmaster.com and include Summerfest general admission for June 30.

Acts announced Monday for Summerfest’s other stages include Stone Temple Pilots, who will perform at the BMO Harris Pavilion July 1. Reserved seats go on sale at noon Friday and include Summerfest general admission that day. Other seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis for the Summerfest general-admission ticket holders.

Also added to the lineup are country group The Band Camino, rap veteran Lupe Fiasco, Milwaukee-born country artist Nora Collins and Sir Mix-A-Lot of "Baby Got Back" fame. They join a list of more than 100 headliners announced in March.

Randy Blythe, lead vocalist of the thrash metal band Lamb of God, performs during their show at the Peoria Civic Center on May 7, 2022.

General-admission tickets are $25 at the box office and summerfest.com, or $20 for seniors (ages 62 and older) and children (ages 3 to 10) at the gate only. Multi-day general-admission passes are $54 (three days), $105 (six days) and $125 (nine days).

General-admission tickets include access to all shows except those in the amphitheater and exclude reserved seats for headliners at the BMO Harris Pavilion. A number of promotional deals are expected to be announced.

Last week, Summerfest offered a limited number of $25 tickets for seven amphitheater shows. As of Monday, $25 tickets were still available for Halsey's Summerfest show at the amphitheater July 2.
