First we had the return of Summer Slaughter in 2024, and now we've got Mayhem Festival officially coming back! While nothing concrete has been revealed, Mayhem Festival organizers have begun teasing a comeback announcement sometime the week of May 27. So stay tuned!
Mayhem Festival originally ran between 2008 and 2015. The festival was then slated to come back in 2020, but was postponed to 2021 thanks to the pandemic. Mayhem Festival 2021 was also cancelled for the same reason.
For reference, the final Mayhem Festival in 2015 featured Slayer, King Diamond, Hellyeah, and The Devil Wears Prada as their headliners with support from bands like Whitechapel, Thy Art Is Murder, and Jungle Rot.
