Hammerfest opens its doors once again
Following the sell-out success of this year's inaugural Hammerfest the event returns to Pontins, Prestatyn Sands, North Wales once again in 2010 from 11-13 March.
It's early days yet but we can already announce that Iced Earth, Devildriver and Skindred will be part of the line-up at Hammerfest II.
The original Hammerfest brought together some of the biggest names in metal for a truly memorable weekend at Pontins. Headliners Opeth, Sepultura and Saxon were joined by the likes of Hammerfall, Paradise Lost, Skindred, Cathedral, Architects and many more…
Hammerfest II is set to carry the mantle. Already confirmed are Iced Earth (a UK exclusive), Devildriver (a Spring exclusive), Skindred (back by popular demand!), Attica Rage and Panic Cell….with many more acts to be confirmed. In addition to the usual Friday and Saturday night lineup, Hammerfest II will also feature an extra night´s entertainment on Thursday 11th March. This comes included in VIP packages or can be purchased separately with Gold or Silver packages.
Hammerfest II is put together by Hard Rock Hell (the people behwwind the hugely successful Hard Rock Hell in 2007, Hard Rock Hell II in 2008 and forthcoming Hard Rock Hell III in December 2009) and Metal Hammer magazine.
