Hellfest 2019: Manowar and Slayer confirmed

Last weekend saw a corner of Brittany become the centre of the metal world again, with the 13th  Hellfest festival taking place in Clisson.

While this year saw Megadeth, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and dozens of others including Alice in Chains, Steven Wilson, Ensiferum and Hollywood Vampires, details of the 2019 event have started to emerge.

Ahead of Marilyn Manson's set, Joey Demaio came on stage to announce that Manowar were to play at the event next year, and since then other names have been added to the bill.

As well as Manowar, the first five acts confirmed for next summer include Slayer, Dropkick Murphys, Carcass, and Mass Hysteria. There will be other acts confirmed before the event.

In fact, there will be over 140 other acts playing next year, with Hellfest unquestionably one of the biggest metal events in Europe embracing all genres of rock, and with acts ranging from heritage acts, the established, the underground and the emerging artists.

Hellfest 2019 takes place on June 21, 22 and 23.
