Picture the scene: you're in the middle of the beautiful, impressive Shipyard in Gdansk, Poland, a fascinating city on the shores of the Baltic Sea which witnessed the birth of World War II and is rife with history and culture. You're surrounded by fellow metalheads, and in front of you, up on a stage, is none other than living heavy metal legend Dave Mustaine, who is about to lead Megadeth through a headliner set of pure thrash metal classics.
That's a vision you can bring to reality by making your way to the legendary Mystic Festival, which has been at the heart of the Polish metal culture for a quarter of a century and will be taking over the Gdansk Shipyard once again this June for a stacked weekend of music in one of Europe's most accessible and affordable cities.
