Hammerfest VII

Hammerfest is pleased to be able to bring a veritable smorgasbord of talent from across the globe headed by Thomas Youngblood’s Symphonic Power metal band Kamelot, who bring their unique blend of monstrously epic metal to set the tone for what promises to be another cracking edition as Hammerfest celebrates its Seventh year with a Pirate Metal themed event.

Hammerfest now in its regular home at Hafan Y Mor Holiday Park,  Pwllheli , Gwynedd, North Wales is also pleased to announce the return of some of Hammerfest favourites headed by stoner metal legends Orange Goblin  who seem to be going from strength to strength at the moment.

 

Joining them are two of the best Viking Metal acts around,  Norway’s Einherjer and Iceland’s Skálmöld  both of whom we are sure will be going Viking from the moment their longships arrive on our fine shores.

 

Hammerfest is also pleased to welcome back three Hammerfest regulars Evil Scarecrow , RSJ and L.A. gypsy metal act Viza – all of which we know hold a special place in the Hammerfest regulars hearts.

 

Also joining next spring’s event are British Heavy metal favourites Angel Witch who never fail to excite.

 

If that’s not enough, we are also pleased to welcome Italian Folk/Power Metal act Elvenking , France’s biggest Industrial Metal act Mass Hysteria , Norway’s Doom Metal act Sahg, Swedish Melodic death metal act Darkane,  English Black metal act Winterfylleth, Hang The Bastard and The King Is Blind to wrap up our first announcement.
