Hellfest promoters are very consistent in maintaining their status as one of the biggest festivals in Europe, slowly turning into an institution. After the double 2022 edition, promoters did their best to attract potential attendees. One would imagine that it would be impossible to top last year’s double feature festival. Promoters approached this in a more realistic way by not trying desperately to jump over the bar they set for themselves. Instead they invited an eclectic bunch of artists to their lineup in Clisson in France from June 15th-18th, 2023. We knew we had to be present too! The first day of Hellfest included bands like BRITSH LION, NOTHING MORE, ELEGANT WEAPONS, SKID ROW, MOTIONLESS IN WHITE, ABORTED, PAPA ROACH, FLOGGING MOLLY, BELPHEGOR, GORGOROTH, BLOODBATH, and VENOM INC.
