IRON MAIDEN, JUDAS PRIEST, KORN, MERCYFUL FATE, EMPEROR and many other bands have been re-confirmed for next year’s festival.

Last month, the metal legends from IRON MAIDEN reported that their Legacy of the Beast tour will hit COPENHELL next year, and it is now a great pleasure for us to re-confirm lots of additional great rock and metal bands for 2022.

The kings of ”heavy fucking metal”, JUDAS PRIEST, are back in the top of the festival poster together with the wild and angry veterans from KORN and the metal gods from MERCYFUL FATE, who will finally get their chance to deliver a historical concert with their occult metal next year.

They are followed by a fistful of heavy bands: The Norwegian black metal band EMPEROR will smother the festival in pure, impermeable evil, while DEATH TO ALL and GATECREEPER attack the audience with bone-crushing death metal and DESTRUCTION and ARTILLERY annihilate the remains with a bombardment of furious thrash metal – the latter just released their newest album today, by the way!

The south Californian punks from BAD RELIGION and Swedish bands HELLACOPTERS and HÄLLAS will deliver some of next year’s biggest rock experiences, while the power metal band GLORYHAMMER will be guaranteed to start an epic beer party.

Ukrainian band JINJER and OPETH from Sweden will cut through it all with their progressive, technical and heavy metal, and core fans can look forward to wild concerts with OF MICE & MEN, KNOCKED LOOSE, DOG EAT DOG and LOK.

Everyone who chooses to keep their ticket for COPENHELL 2020/2021 can use it for COPENHELL 2022 and won’t have to take further action, other than look forward to a true earthquake of a party next year!  The remaining tickets for next year’s festival will go on sale later this year!
