Hellfest 2025: the edition is revealed through first very bloody visuals

Hellfest, one of the best metal festivals in France, will be back in 2025 for a new edition eagerly awaited by fans. Ticket sales, date, theme, first visuals, expectations around the lineup… We know a little more about what awaits us.

What can we expect for Hellfest 2025?

Announced the day after the 2024 edition, the dates of Hellfest 2025 have been known for some time already by fans of the famous metal festival. Hardcore music fans will be expected from June 19 to 22 in Clisson, where they will be able to discover some 180 artists. At present, the lineup remains mysterious, since no names have yet been revealed. Between Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, Sepultura, Cannibal Corpse, Obituary, Napalm Death, LinkinPark (whose new singer is already causing controversy) or even Slayer, everyone has their own hypothesis. As for the theme of Hellfest 2025, it is finally revealed through a first very filthy visual!

The video, shared on the social networks via the festival's official accounts, imitates the flesh that tears. The famous H, flesh red, fills with blood, causing a slight disgust on the part of Internet users. The visual identity of this 18th Hellfest will be organic, and above all, “out of bounds”, as stated in the tagline “OUT OF BOUNDS”! Is an artistic direction outside the beaten track to be expected? Could the festival be exported outside the walls? Will the program include any surprises? The answer regarding the artists will not be given before the last quarter of 2024, confirm our colleagues at Presse Océan, who were able to contact Éric Perrin, the communications manager. In any case, this edition promises to be a success: all 4-day passes (339 euros) were sold when they went on sale on July 9!

And you, are you one of the lucky holders of the precious sesame?
