As always, we'll have to wait and see what's in store for this 2026 edition. The line-up is usually unveiled in the autumn. However, we can already tell you thatUltra Vomit, who were forced to cancel their appearance in Clisson this summer, will be taking part in 2026. The band from Nantes is therefore the first to be confirmed for Hellfest 2026!

In the meantime, we invite you to relive the 2025 edition in pictures.
