Brace yourselves for the summer of 2013 – for it marks the first installment of the brand new and gargantuan Beastival festival series that will supply you with supreme heaviness, the biggest acts in metal and mean shredding! This three-day headbanger`s feast will take place May 30th to June 1st and will get you a perfect start into your very own heavy summer! Located in Geiselwind, Germany the lineup that will enter two stages already looks like a wet dream come true...

For the first time ever, the gods of German thrash metal will be united on one stage - The Big Teutonic Four is definitely gonna be a historic event! KREATOR, SODOM, DESTRUCTION and TANKARD on one stage!?! Yes, you`ve read right! The German thrash metal legens are preparing an infernal night you can only experience like this at the Beastival!

Explaining the phenomenon that is SABATON is sort of ridiculous: everybody knows them, everybody loves them, and the Swedes have blown away everybody these past few years who`s into power metal with killer melodies! Their energetic and pyro-fueled live shows are the stuff of legends, and recently they silenced the competition once more with the fabulous Carolus Rex.

But of course that`s just the tip of the iceberg! The Beastival line up also features names such as WINTERSUN, SATYRICON, KATAKLYSM, DARK TRANQUILLITY, DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER, VARG, EISREGEN, ASPHYX, MAJESTY and HEIDEVOLK! And this is just the beginning…

The ticket presale starts on November 15th - then you can get the limited fan pack (ticket, T-Shirt + NoiseArt CD of your choice) for only 89 € at www.hardticket.eu.

Current lineup: SABATON, The Big Teutonic 4 (KREATOR, SODOM, DESTRUCTION, TANKARD), WINTERSUN, KATAKLYSM, SATYRICON, DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER, U.D.O, DARK TRANQUILLITY, VARG, EISREGEN, ASPHYX, NACHTMYSTIUM, HEIDEVOLK, MAJESTY.
