KROQ's Megan Holiday to Host Rock 2 Freedom® Benefit Concert at The Wiltern Theatre on October 24

LOS ANGELES, CA - April 20, 2026 - KROQ (KROQ-FM), an Audacy station in Los Angeles, is enhancing its iconic Wilshire Boulevard performance venue with the introduction of the In-N-Out Burger Sound Space™ at KROQ, uniting two beloved Southern California originals.

"For the last 15 years, The Sound Space at KROQ has been the original destination in LA and Orange County for intimate performances from the biggest bands in the world," said Kevin Weatherly, Senior Vice President of Programming, KROQ. "We are excited to partner with In-N-Out Burger for the next and best phase. These two iconic, SoCal brands are joining forces with the sole purpose of delivering unforgettable live music moments!"

Alternative indie rock band Bleachers will take center stage to launch the In-N-Out Burger Sound Space at KROQ with an exclusive performance on April 21. Fans will enjoy an on-site In-N-Out Cookout^® Truck serving complimentary favorites, available at select shows.

Located in the heart of Los Angeles' Miracle Mile on Wilshire Boulevard, the In-N-Out Burger Sound Space at KROQ is a state-of-the-art entertainment hub that hosts live broadcasts, intimate concerts, interactive podcast experiences and custom events.

"In-N-Out Burger has a strong synergy with the Southern California experience, just like KROQ," said Lynsi Snyder-Ellingson, President and Owner, In-N-Out Burger. "I'm truly excited for this new opportunity, especially because both music and KROQ have always been special to me and such huge parts of my life. Often, our .48 Special (In-N-Out's band) set lists are tunes from '90s KROQ! Music is such a powerful way to connect with the people we care about, and I can't wait to see this special space filled with live performances, community, and memorable experiences."

Since opening in 2011, the KROQ Sound Space has become one of Southern California's most unique live music venues, hosting more than 170 performances and welcoming both emerging artists and globally recognized bands for exclusive concerts, interviews, and once-in-a-lifetime fan experiences. Past performers and guests include Coldplay, Linkin Park, Imagine Dragons, Green Day, Arctic Monkeys, Foo Fighters, Twenty One Pilots and Fall Out Boy.

KROQ is proud to partner with the Slave 2 Nothing® Foundation, founded by Lynsi Snyder-Ellingson and her husband, Sean Ellingson, with the mission to free people from being enslaved to any person or substance.

On October 24, 2026, KROQ and In-N-Out Burger will come together to present the sixth annual Rock 2 Freedom Benefit Concert at The Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles. The evening will be hosted by KROQ host Megan Holiday, a dedicated advocate for sobriety, recovery and harm reduction. She celebrates her 10-year sobriety milestone this year and looks forward to taking a stand with Slave 2 Nothing by sharing her story to inspire the audience through music, community and stories of transformation.

In-N-Out Burger covers all costs associated with the Slave 2 Nothing® Foundation, ensuring that 100% of every dollar raised goes to organizations that assist individuals and families to gain freedom and healing from human trafficking and substance abuse. Since its founding in 2016, Slave 2 Nothing has awarded over $17 million in grants to more than 400 organizations.
