Ho ho ho!
We do have a little treat for you just before Christmas. Three fresh band confirmations ready to unwrap:
Ensiferum do not only create a bombastic atmosphere under the Christmas tree, but also on the Dongberg: Finnish folk metal at its finest! Epic melodies, Nordic mythology combined with powerful metal riffs – all of this can be found on the 2024 album “Winter Storm”, which the band will be bringing with them on their third trip to Neukirchen-Vluyn.
Mantar is a unique duo from Germany who, with just guitar, drums and vocals, create an impressively dense, raw sound that oscillates between sludge, punk and black metal. Fittingly, the new album “Post Apocalyptic Depression” will also be released on Valentine’s Day 2025. Check out how two people without a bass player can blow away the entire Dong Open Air!
Vanaheim also bring Nordic mythology with them, but the vocals are surprisingly mostly Dutch! You can expect danceable epic folk metal that has already impressed on stage together with Heidevolk, Finsterforst and Equilibrium. Get ready for a history lesson of a special kind!
Together with Destruction, Doomcrusher, Kissin’ Dynamite, Kreator, Neurotic Machinery, Rezet, Subterranean Masquerade, Suidakra, The Halo Effect and Weckörhead, this sounds like a pretty decent party!
Tickets are available here. And if you already have a ticket, you can never go wrong with ten drink vouchers for your loved ones!
Wishing you pleasant holidays!
Your Dong Team
