September will be an exciting month at the Holland, with the return of an annual celebration of regional rockers, a Led Zeppelin tribute to kick off the official 2026-27 season, and the first film in the Americans at 250 Film Series.

This weekend, on Friday, Sept. 4, and Saturday, Sept. 5, at 7:30 p.m., Rock the Holland III hits the Holland stage. 

This annual showcase of some of the region’s most exciting young bands has been expanded to two nights this year. 

Friday’s lineup includes Bopper Brothers, Sonic Skyways, and Visitor, while Saturday’s features The Zeitgeist, Mascara Cowboys, and Logan County’s own Riot Baby. 

Tickets are $10 and, as for all Holland shows, are available online, through the box office, or at the door (when available).

The Holland’s 2026-27 season officially kicks off Tuesday, Sept. 15, at 7:30 p.m. with Zoso: The Ultimate Led Zeppelin Experience. 

One of the most iconic and respected Led Zeppelin tribute experiences in the world, Zoso has played more than 4,900 shows across three decades and across the globe. Tickets start at $40. This event is sponsored by V-Teck Communications.

To round out the month, the Holland’s Americans at 250 Film series begins Saturday, Sept. 26, at 7 p.m. with Spike Lee’s classic Do the Right Thing. 

Set on one blistering 1980’s day in Brooklyn, the film explores themes of racial tension, justice, and the difficulty of determining the “right thing.” Tickets are $8.
