Three Days Grace, the legendary Canadian hard-rock outfit, returns to Romania on Friday, June 26, 2026, performing at Shine Festival, with Caskets and Black Gold at Romexpo.
Three Days Grace: Band History & Comeback
Formed in Ontario in 1997 (previously known as Groundswell since 1992), Three Days Grace features founding members Adam Gontier (vocals/guitar), Brad Walst (bass), and Neil Sanderson (drums), with Barry Stock joining on lead guitar in 2003.
Adam Gontier left the band in 2013 but made a triumphant return in late 2024. The band now features dual lead vocals shared between Gontier and Matt Walst, marking a bold new chapter in their evolution.
They released their eighth studio album, Alienation, in August 2025 — their first full project since Gontier’s return.
Rock Anthems You’ll Hear
Three Days Grace are icons of post‑grunge and alt‑metal, with anthemic tracks that gave voice to a generation. Expect to hear some of their most unforgettable songs:
- “I Hate Everything About You” (2003), their breakthrough debut hit—recently surpassed 1 billion Spotify streams
- “Animal I Have Become”, “Pain”, and “Never Too Late”—all chart‑topping singles from the One‑X album (2006)
- “Break”, “Chalk Outline” and “I Am Machine”, massive hits in the 2009–2015 era
With a record 19 No. 1 singles on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart as of mid‑2025, they’re tied with Shinedown near the top of the all‑time list.

How to Get to Romexpo
📍 Romexpo, 65-67 Mărăști Boulevard, Bucharest
Public Transport Options:
Getting to Romexpo for the Three Days Grace concert at Shine Festival is easy and stress-free if you choose public transport or ride-sharing instead of driving.
The Romexpo Exhibition Center is well connected to Bucharest’s main transit network, with several STB bus and tram lines stopping within walking distance of the venue.
You can take STB buses such as 100, 205, 331, 335, 261, 304 and others that serve the Piața Presei Libere/Romexpo area, as well as tram lines 41 and 42 that run close to the festival grounds, helping you avoid traffic and parking hassles around the event.
For those coming from further away or with luggage, the Aviatorilor metro station (M2) is just a short connection away, where you can switch to buses or trams heading toward Romexpo.
If you prefer a more direct ride after the show, ride-sharing services like Uber, Bolt, or Blue are widely available in Bucharest and can drop you off near the entrance without the headache of finding and paying for parking, a much smoother way to enjoy your night at Shine Festival.
Arrive early to grab your spot, especially if you have early entry.
