For 25 years now Rock For People has congregated artists from the world of alternative rock, punk, metal, and beyond, earning it's deserved stature as Czechia's premier festival to experience these energetic guitar-centred genres.

Green Day, The 1975, and Fall Out Boy sit atop the festival's lineup this year, evidence of how far the festival has come in terms of luring the world's biggest contemporary acts to Hradec Králové's Festivalpark.

Whilst there's likely to be the odd batch of artists unveiled here and there, the bulk of the lineup has already been revealed. And there's plenty of head-banging, heart-wrenching, and lung-bursting tracks to be heard from those artists already taking the Rock For People stage.

Here's why we've made our essential playlist, and it's essential you play it loud.
