Last day of Tuska 2025 already starting in a couple of hours! We’re really excited to see the epic headliner show of Lorna Shore, but besides them, here are 7 acts that are taking over a stage today you shouldn’t miss out on in our opinion, with Havukruunu, Kim Dracula, Nothing More, Octoploid, Polaris, The Vantages and Noiduin! Who are you looking forward to seeing today if you’re joining us at Tuska?

After a great first day at Tuska 2025, these are the 8 bands you should see today on day two with Wind Rose, Charlotte Wessels, JILUKA, Eihwar, Royal Sorrow, Orbit Culture, Slaughter To Prevail and thrown!

Rockfest Friday wasn’t just about the main stage. From Dead By April and Awake Again to Jinjer and Cemetery Skyline, the Red and Black Stage delivered intensity, precision, and atmosphere in equal measure.

In less than a week, Tuska weekend is upon us! If somehow you weren’t convinced yet that you need to go, here are 10 reasons we believe should be enough motivation to still get a ticket and join us there!

Dark Tranquillity

About a month ago, The Dark Tranquillity “Endtime Signals European Tour 2025” stopped in Lille, France with special guests Moonspell and Hiraes. We were there and saw it was good, together with a roaring crowd!

Besides the epic shows of the headliners at this year’s Rockfest, we picked 10 bands that we think you shouldn’t miss out on if you’re going to the festival this weekend, with Moon Shot, Sepultura, RØRY, Awake Again, Bullet For My Valentine, Jinjer, Cemetery Skyline, Demolition 23, GHØSTKID and Black Flag! Who are you looking forward to the most this weekend? See you there!
