If you've been looking for a unique metal festival experience that's a) boasting a killer lineup, b) is extremely affordable and c) takes place on one of the coolest sites on Planet Earth, then you officially need Rockstadt Extreme Fest in your life. Over the space of a decade, Rockstadt has evolved from one of the most promising new festivals in the European metal scene to an essential summer destination for metalheads. This year's edition, taking place from July 30 to August 3, is certainly no exception.
Often described as the Hellfest of Eastern Europe and drawing fans from around the world (in fact over 50% of ticketholders travel from abroad each year), Rockstadt not only brings together some of the best bands in metal every year, but boasts one of the coolest homes ever - Râșnov Fortress in Transylvania.
