Hellsinki Metal Festival, sold out on Saturdays this summer, reveled the first part of its coverage for 2025. As in the first two years of the event, there will be an interesting cross-section of the peaks of international and Finnish metal – without forgetting surprising names.
The bands announced are Hatebreed, Enslaved, Landmvrks, Kanonenfieber, Candlemass, Moonsorrow, Forbidden, Marduk, Me and That Man, Warmen, Sigh, Kiuas, Party Cannon, GosT and Alfahanne.
Advance tickets for Hellsinki Metal Festival are on sale at Ticketmaster, Tiketti and Lippupiste. Only a limited number of two-day discount tickets available for sale now.
Toni Törrönen, promoter of Hellsinki Metal Festival, says that there is no need to change the proven line. The size of the artist is also not the only factor that decides the choice of bands for the event.
“Artist selections are always based on quality, customer feedback and exclusivity. I have experienced that Hellsinki Metal Festival’s customers appreciate the fact that the program includes bands and special gigs that they might not have expected,” says Toni Törrönen.
As usual, Hellsinki Metal Festival takes place in the area of the Helsinki Ice Hall, where two outdoor stages and the ice rink itself are used by festival visitors. The area of side events and points expanded last year will be developed this year. Toni Törrönen says that the biggest change visible to visitors at Nordis will be related to the size of the outdoor stages.
“Two years of experience has shown that the Helsinki Ice Hall area is overall a good home for the Hellsinki Metal Festival.”
