Stonedead Festival 2025

The highly anticipated lineup for the Stonedead Festival 2025 has been officially announced, promising an electrifying weekend of Heavy Metal and rock. With the festival already sold out, fans are gearing up for an unforgettable event in August 2025.

Headliners: The Almighty

From Strathaven, The Almighty are set to headline the festival with a set that will be picked by the fans. Reuniting in 2023, the band have brought joy at their explosive shows, and this by-request set will allow fans to choose the classics they want to hear, ensuring a personalized, crowd-pleasing performance.

Special Guest: The Dead Daisies

The Dead Daisies, a supergroup with an impeccable reputation, will take the stage as the special guests. Known for their relentless touring and unforgettable live shows, their set promises to be another highlight of the festival. We all hope that Doug Aldrich will be fit, well, and ready to rock again.

Supporting Acts: Legends and Rising Stars

The bill is bolstered by Glam Rock icons Sweet, famous for hits like The Ballroom Blitz, who will bring nostalgia and energy along with D-A-D, the Danish Metal titans who combine cowpunk roots with hard rock intensity.

German Power Metal veterans Primal Fear will deliver their face-melting performances akin to Judas Priest, alongside The New Roses: Germany’s Princes of rock’ n’ roll, Enforcer, the Swedish Metal innovators celebrating 20 years of blistering Proto Thrash and Black Oak Country, the emerging Danish rockers who blend influences from five decades of heavy music.

The 2024 lineup showcased a diverse array of talent, including emerging bands like Tailgunner and established acts such as Ugly Kid Joe and Eclipse in what was a dynamic and memorable festival, reinforcing Stonedead’s status as a premier event for rock and Metal enthusiasts.
