Just in case you weren’t convinced enough yet, here are our reasons why we believe you should get a ticket still for the 2024 edition if you haven’t yet! With a massive line-up, added features and an overall excellent festival experience promised, you won’t want to sit this one out!
With about a week to go, we put together 10 reasons why we think you should consider to still get yourself a ticket for Alcatraz 2024 and join in with the fun! With a stellar line-up, including some of the best the Belgian scene has to offer and a great organization trying to improve your festival experience year after year, it’s promising to be one hell of a weekend again!
The second day of Tuska 2024 will get at least as exciting as the day before, we highly recommend you don’t sit out on the shows of Ankor, VOLA, Solence, St. Aurora, Make Them Suffer, I Am Your God, Bring Me The Horizon and The Abbey!
While it’s a given that as a metalfan you’ll want to catch shows of Dimmu Borgir and Kerry King today at the first day of Tuska, we think that there are a couple more bands that deserve some of your attention, or that we think will be even more epic to see live than you might suspect with editorial picks Lord of the Lost’s festival opening show, I Am The Night, Infected Rain, Krypta, Suburban Tribe, Assemble The Chariots, Zeal & Ardor and Pendulum!
Tomorrow it’s again that time of the year: 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 if any are available still! Going from a great line-up, to Tuska KVLT, Tuska Expo expanding further and simply an amazing atmosphere! See you there!
