Full line-up

Hellbangers, the wait is finally over—the lineup for Hellfest’s 18th edition has been unveiled!

 

This year, 184 bands and artists will storm the six stages of Hellfest, with one last very special guest yet to be announced. Among them, 106 will make their debut in Clisson, a testament to how alive and dynamic the “extreme music” scene remains.
 

We’re thrilled to welcome LINKIN PARK back to Hellfest for only the second time in the festival’s history, celebrating their remarkable comeback. Alongside them, hard rock legends SCORPIONS and nu-metal pioneers KORN will take the stage, setting the tone for an unforgettable weekend. And for the first time ever, British powerhouse MUSE will grace Clisson with their stadium-filling rock, a bold choice that’s sure to win over even the doubters.
 

On Friday, Mainstage 2 will shine a spotlight on women in music, with a lineup featuring female-led or all-female bands like Within Temptation, Heilung, Epica, Spiritbox, Kittie, Future Palace, Amira Elfeky, Charlotte Wessels, and Sun. With more than 42 bands including female musicians, this year’s Hellfest promises to champion diversity like never before.

 

This edition also ushers in a new wave of headliners, including Electric Callboy, Turnstile, Knocked Loose, Jinjer, and Leprous, while honoring genre veterans such as Judas Priest, Dream Theater, Savatage, and the legendary duo Satriani/Vai, blending fresh energy with timeless legacies.
 

2025 also welcomes breakout stars like Falling in Reverse, Poppy, Kim Dracula, Imminence, and Dethklok, who’ve rapidly become household names in the scene. Fans of darker, more intricate sounds can look forward to special moments like the Blood Fire Death tribute to Bathory and long-awaited returns from Kylesa, The Kovenant, and Sunn O))).
