Among them, 106 will make their debut in Clisson, a testament to how alive and dynamic the 'extreme music' scene remains.
"We're thrilled to welcome Linkin Park back to Hellfest for only the second time in the festival's history, celebrating their remarkable comeback. Alongside them, hard rock legends Scorpions and nu-metal pioneers Korn will take the stage, setting the tone for an unforgettable weekend. And for the first time ever, British powerhouse Muse will grace Clisson with their stadium-filling rock, a bold choice that's sure to win over even the doubters.
