The festival will take place on November 19 and 20, at the Explanada del Estadio Chevron in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. A pre-party concert will be held on Friday, November 18, at the Dragon Rojo Bar in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico.
Dragon Rojo Metal Fest co-promoter / booking agent Israel Pelayo comments: "The whole Dragon Rojo Metal Fest family deeply regrets the passing of legendary Grim Reaper vocalist Steve Grimmett. Steve was one of the greatest and we were very much looking forward to having him rock us to hell. We are very fortunate to have the great Ross The Boss step in and continue the show with his high energy Manowar set. He was our first choice as replacement for our event and we cant wait to hold the sign of the hammer high in the air at Dragon Rojo Metal fest 2022."
