Message from Graspop organisers:

Unfortunately AEROSMITH have been forced to cancel their headlining show at GMM 2022. As soon as the news reached us we set out on the daunting task of finding a worthy replacement and our efforts have been rewarded. We’ve been able to snare one of the most popular metal bands around because this summer ‘The Swedish War Machine’ will once again be campaigning in Dessel. That’s right, SABATON are our new headliners for Sunday 19th June!

SABATON’s tenth album, ‘The War to End All Wars’, will be released on March 4th, 2022 (Nuclear Blast). Written and recorded in 2021 during the global COVID pandemic, the band has crafted a concept album of 11 brand-new songs that dive deep into previously unexplored atrocities, miracles and events tied to the early 20th century’s World War I.

Get ready for another glorious performance by the Swedish panzer battalion. Organisers can’t wait to see what dazzling new manoeuvres they’ve come up with this time!
