🔥 Gathering of the Damned MMXXVI🔥

A few more dark delights to announce for the Gathering of the Damned…
Special guest DJ John Berry (Ancient Rites, Slaughter Messiah, Nocturnal) will be commanding the after-show gathering, spinning a selection of black, death and classic metal anthems deep into the night.
We are also pleased to welcome Cult Never Dies, who will have a merchandise stall packed with books, magazines, music and underground metal culture. If there’s something specific you’d like them to bring, contact them in advance:

Joining them will be Steampunk Design, bringing their distinctive handcrafted creations and dark alternative wares:

Making the journey to the event all the way from Finland, will be Rauta, one of the underground metal scene’s best-known YouTubers. He’ll be reviewing the festival and documenting the proceedings for his channel. If you fancy appearing in a video, having a chat about your band, or simply flying the flag for the underground, seek him out during the day and see what fate has in store.

As if that wasn’t enough, the mad alchemist at Black Metal Brewery is concocting an exclusive batch of ale brewed solely for this year’s Gathering of the Damned. Whether this mysterious potion grants enlightenment, damnation, or a spectacular hangover remains to be seen.
If you’re brave enough to sample it, get in touch with Jaan in advance. Failing that, you can probably find him at the festival holding court somewhere between the bar and a pool of his own vomit in the nearest gutter.
Raise your horns, support the underground, and prepare for a day of darkness, metal and mayhem. 🔥
