The announcement of our first two headliners DEF LEPPARD and MÖTLEY CRÜE is still fresh in our minds and already it’s time to reveal our third headliner for Graspop Metal Meeting 2023 – None other than SLIPKNOT will close out the South Stage on Saturday 17th June.

Earlier this year the nine-strong masked troupe headed by vocalist Corey Taylor dropped a musical splinter bomb with ‘The End, So Far’. As you know, the Des Moines, Iowa nine-piece have been welcome guests at the festival for many years. With their phenomenal podium presence and a truckload of memorable metal anthems they always take the Dessel plains by storm. Their eighth festival appearance promises to be a happy reunion, one that thousands of metalheads will anxiously look forward to. Get ready for a set stuffed to the brim with orchestrated chaos, mosh pits and hits!

In 2023 Graspop Metal Meeting will once again open the floodgates of metal heaven for four days straight with an all-star line-up. Graspop Metal Meeting 2023 takes place from 15th through 18th June.

For the 26th time, the Stenehei festival venue in Dessel will rock to its foundations! True to form, the line-up will burst at the seams with the best of a variety of metal genres: from hardcore to hard rock, from black metal to thrash, from punk to metalcore and tons more. Graspop Metal Meeting 2023 is the metal high mass of the year no metalhead can afford to miss.

The countdown continues!
