GMM 2019 LINE-UP 95% COMPLETE NEW: RED BULL MUSIC METAL DOME UPDATE TICKET SALES & LODGINGS

31st January 2019 0 By Jon Deaux

The Graspop Metal Meeting 2019 line-up received one of its last additions today. The festival can now boast a bunch of stellar names. 13 additions this time: Beartooth was added on the festival’s pre-day on Thursday. Architects, Carpenter Brut, Atreyu, and Candlebox were added to Friday’s line-up. Behemoth, Clutch and Beast In Black will perform on Saturday. And finally: Gojira, Kvelertak, Deadland Ritual (metal’s latest super group with Black Sabbath’s Geezer Butler and ex-Guns N‘ Roses drummer Matt Sorum), While She Sleeps, and Insomnium will be in Dessel on Sunday.

KISS, Slipknot, and Within Temptation are your headliners this year. Other top acts include Slayer (the last Benelux show!), Def Leppard and Sabaton. You can get an overview of all the confirmed names in a handy list per day right here. Final touches to the line-up will follow soon. Be sure to keep an eye on the GMM social media, website and your mailbox!

This year the festival will take place in the Festival Park on the Stenehei in Dessel from 21 – 23 June. Tickets are only available via ticketmaster.be and proximusgoformusic.be. Good to know: Last year the festival sold out long before it got under way. We would like to mention that the VIP day tickets for Sunday 23 June have already sold out 142 days before the festival. The other ticket categories are also a success. Don’t get stuck without a ticket – purchase one on time!

Be sure to think about where you want to sleep after a long day at the festival. Numerous lodgings are already full or only have a few units left. Metal Park is already completely booked and Metal Town has very few spots left. More information about lodgings at GMM19 can be found here.

Other news: the Metal Dome podium has been renamed the Red Bull Music Metal Dome! Collaboration between Red Bull, Red Bull Music and Graspop Metal Meeting will reach new heights this year with a new name and a new layout of the Metal Dome. A place where you can party until the early hours. A place where you can see the wilder bands at work and a place where you can discover three talented bands from Belgium on the eve of the festival. Are you a Belgian band and would you like to try and gain a slot on the podium of the Red Bull Music Metal Dome? Apply via gmm@redbullmusic.be before Monday, 22 February at 12 noon. Provide all your information and some whistles and bells. Selected bands will be contacted personally. Pieter Coolen of Toxic Shock, a Red Bull Music 2018 band, thinks back on his show every day: “Really cool to see all those people let it rip. The audience was into us from the first chord. A wonderful feeling because we don’t always perform in front of 5000 people. Red Bull Music gave us a gigantic stage to do our thing. I’d love to do that every day!” More info via the Red Bull Music website here. Like to know more? For the latest updates on #GMM19, see graspop.be.
