Before OZZfest. Before Mayhem Festival. Before all of them — there was Milwaukee Metal Fest.
The iconic, midwestern, multi-day event was the stuff of legends in its original form!
The festival is returning to prominence in 2023, as Hatebreed frontman and podcaster Jamey Jasta purchased the rights and is aiming for a massive first year back!
The rebooted event will take place over Memorial Day Weekend (May 26, 27, and 28) at The Rave/Eagles club.
The initial lineup announcement featured powerhouse acts, such as Lamb of God, Anthrax, Suicidal Tendencies, Napalm Death, and more.
Today, the festival has announced a slew of additional performers, including Machine Head, Warbringer, Raven, and many, many more!
"This lineup keeps getting more stacked," says Jasta. "This will be a show to remember!"
The full lineup is below.
