Hellfest, Rock music festival in Clisson, France.
Hellfest is a rock festival held in Clisson that focuses on hard rock and metal music across four days in June. The event features multiple stages and a full program of international bands playing throughout the festival grounds.
The festival started in 2006 as a continuation of Fury Fest and has grown significantly since its beginning. What began as a smaller gathering has developed into one of the largest events of its kind in the region.
The festival brings together metal fans from around the world who share a deep passion for heavy music and its subculture. Visitors experience a strong sense of community, where people from different backgrounds unite through their love of the genre.
