Faster Harder Louder – already on Thursday!
Year after year, we alter and improve the Wacken Open Air, based on your feedback. Our defined goal is to create the greatest metal party of the year with and for you. The upcoming Wacken Open Air 2018 makes no exception and today we can announce the first big alteration for the festival infield:
On Thursday, the first official day of the festival, we will not only have the Night To Remember on Faster & Harder. There will be also a great program on the Louder stage! This means we will have program on all our stages on Thursday already!
The lineup for this stage will form a contrast to both the Night To Remember and the Night To Dismember. The Night To Dismember will again take place in the Bullhead City Circus. We can't announce the bands yet, but the Advent calendar will start in just one week!
All these shows are included in our 3-Days-All-In tickets of-course! If you don't have a ticket yet, get yours at
Metaltix.com or from one of our travel partners
For W:O:A 2017, the Louder stage already got a massive upgrade with more speakers and a new stage house. The additional program on Thursday is the last step to raise the stage to a level with the other stages in the infield.
We're looking forward to the upcoming announcements in our Advent calendar and of course to the W:
O:A 2018! See you in Wacken - Rain or Shine!
