The 2026 edition of RESURRECTION FEST is shaping up to be one of the biggest yet. The festival has just revealed another wave of confirmations — with some of metal and rock’s biggest names among them.
Headliners and Heavyweights
At the top of the bill: iconic heavy-metal legends IRON MAIDEN. The British titans will return to Viveiro under their 2026 “Run For Your Lives” tour — one of only two Spanish dates. For many fans, this marks a long-awaited reunion with the festival after a 10-year absence.
Also confirmed as headliners are MARILYN MANSON and LIMP BIZKIT, cementing a lineup that spans generations and styles, from classic heavy metal to nu-metal and industrial shock rock.
More Than Just Headliners: A Massive Roster of 80+ Bands
But the festival doesn’t stop there. The newly announced roster adds dozens more names across metal, hardcore, rock, and alternative — bringing the total to 81 confirmed artists so far.
Among the highlights: TRIVIUM — known for their fierce energy and technical prowess — plus bands such as SABATON, A DAY TO REMEMBER, ANTHRAX, MASTODON, TESTAMENT and many others, representing a sweeping cross-section of metal and rock subgenres.
The lineup also includes more underground or alternative acts spanning hardcore, punk, and metalcore — making RESURRECTION FEST 2026 a festival for both mainstream fans and underground die-hards.
A Place Called Home — and We Mean It
With such a diverse and powerful lineup, Resurrection Fest’s 2026 slogan (“A Place Called Home”) feels more fitting than ever. The festival seems determined to offer something for everyone: long-time metalheads, nu-metal nostalgics, hardcore fans, and those still discovering the heavier side of rock.
Festival passes and early tickets — already described by many fans as “going fast” — are a must, especially if you want to catch some of these rare appearances on Spanish soil next summer.
