Hailing from Belgium, Psychonaut has already released three stellar albums: Unfold the God Man (2018), Violate Consensus Reality (2022), and World Maker (2025). This year, the post-metal outfit, made up of Stefan De Graef, Thomas Michiels, and Harm Peters, takes a big step by making its very first appearance at Hellfest. A spellbinding and explosive set not to be missed on the Valley stage at 2:40 PM.
Thrash metal enthusiasts, here’s a show you absolutely don’t want to miss on Mainstage 2. On June 20, Hellfest welcomes the Cavalera brothers, the former faces of the legendary Brazilian band Sepultura. This year, Max and Igor step back into the spotlight to unleash their thunderous tracks from the iconic Chaos A.D. album. Ready to jump back to 1993?
Following a mesmerising set in 2023, Amenra return to Hellfest this summer! The Belgian post-metal outfit graces the Valley again, ready to blow the doors off with twisted yet devastating riffs and Colin H. van Eeckhout’s voice stewing in pain and fury.
Another show not to be missed on June 20 at Mainstage 2: Megadeth. Indeed, Dave Mustaine has revealed that the band's 17th studio album, released in January, would be their last, and that this current tour would also be their final run. So Hellfest festival-goers can rejoice: Megadeth will indeed stop by this summer in Clisson to bid farewell to its many French fans.
They’re back in force after lighting up Hellfest in 2023. The Polish powerhouse Behemoth returns to the clissonnais scene in 2026. Expect the magnetic, cathartic intensity Nergal is renowned for, delivering blistering blackened death metal magic that only they possess. Behemoth are also tipped to showcase several tracks from their 2025 album, "The Shit Ov God." Originally slated for the Temple, they’ll now headline Mainstage 2 following Volbeat’s cancellation!
Of course, this list isn’t exhaustive, and there are plenty of other acts not to miss on June 20 at Hellfest. So, what are you planning to go see and hear on Saturday in Clisson?
