It’s by far one of the most impressive lineups of 2024: For this year's 31st edition, RockHarz festival at Ballenstedt Airfield in Germany has announced over 50 bands and a billing that impresses not only by featuring big names but also with its diversity.
Headliners include Judas Priest, Dimmu Borgir, Kreator, Hammerfall and Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson. Loyal RockHarz fans can also look forward to experiencing bands such as Kanonenfieber, The Halo Effect, Nestor, The Night Eternal, D'artagnan and Nanowar Of Steel as well as many other well-known acts live during four days of festival goodness.
Desperation has been great for the many metalheads who could not secure their tickets in time, since the festival announced that it was sold out – this year in record time. There is, however, a shimmer of hope now.
In addition to info on which bands rocks which day, RockHarz has now also published pre-sale details for a limited contingent of single day tickets (available exclusively via the RockHarz ticket store), which are as follows:
