Tolminator 2025 started strong on the main stage with sets from Warbringer, Omnium Gatherum, High Parasite, Angelus Apatrida, and the mighty Kreator. Our intern photographer Nox captured the action, dive into the gallery from Day 1!
Tolminator isn’t just about the bands. It’s about the people who make it unforgettable. This year, our team (with trainee Nox and resident photographer Tom) captured the heart and soul of the festival: the faces, the chaos, the calm by the Soča river.
