About the festival

Hellfest is an annual festival of heavy metal music in France (not to be confused with the American Hellfest!). is the successor to the Furyfest festival, which was organized by a group of buddies, tired of the lack of concerts that meet their interests.

Hellfest is held in Clisson town, located 35 kilometers from the city of Nantes and 400 km from Paris, in the Val de Moine sport complex.
