Thursday
MS1 Ozzy Osbourne - Pantera.
MS2 Judas Priest - In Flames.

Friday
MS1 Ghost - Gojira.
MS2 Parkway Drive - Architects.

Saturday
MS1 SlipKnot - Lamb Of God.
MS2 Avenged Sevenfold - Disturbed.

Sunday
MS1 Def Leppard - Alter Bridge.
MS2 Mötley Crüe - Hollywood Vampires.

Some updates ideas...

 

This lineup makes a lot of sense I think. My only objections would be Ozzy (considering his health issues, I don't see how he will be fit to be on stage next June) and Judas Priest (two times in a row would be too much).

Dont see Ozzy and Judas Priest playing Graspop. Plus, Ghost and Parkway Drive seem a rather small headliner duo.

About Ozzy, he has - for now - his tour booked in May with Judas Priest as opener. Nothing in Belgium and as he came so often at Graspop as solo artist or with Black Sabbath that I don't see him finish his career without a last show in Belgium. If the GMM can take Judas Priest one more time with that, I don't think they'll hesitate... unfortunately.

About the duo Ghost/Parkway Drive, I made a mistake: I read PWD should play on Saturday. So we could have Ghost/Avenged Sevenfold on Friday and SlipKnot/Parkway Drive on Saturday which could be really sick tbh!

If Ozzy can get back on his feet and tour, then I think he'll be at GMM. It will be a risky booking though with a constant concern of a potential cancelation. When it comes to festivals and because Judas Priest are a big name (not your average support that a big band drags along) I don't think they depend on each other.

Tbh, I'd love to see Ozzy one last time. But only if he is strong enough to perform and sing, otherwise I don't want my last memory of a legend to be that "oh! this is sad" feeling.

leaked Graspop clashfinder - Metallica, Slipknot, Avenged, Motley. Stage times and all - at least 3/4 sound legit to be touring, a promoter confirmed it's 95% real.

So many weird choices in this timetable...

1. Metallica: I'll believe it the day I see them on the official website of Graspop.
2. Metallica - Nightwish - Limp Bizkit: Too big to be true. I think if they booked them one day, we gonna have a poor line-up around like they did in 2017 with Rammstein.
3. Avenged Sevenfold + Parkway Drive: Friday seems to young and too good to be true but I really hope it could happen.
4. Killswitch Engage: They won't be there as they play festivals in August. 
5. Epica: Sub of SlipKnot and above Architects doesn't fit right so is the all North Stage on Saturday.

Lol, bollocks. This clashfinder was made by a Festileaks user who confirmed it's a mix of wishlist and estimated guesses.

Very good guesses in that case! Pantera and Porcupine Tree are both confirmed for Hellfest - Pantera is doing stand alone gigs too, will be happy to see them in Romania.

Where did you see Pantera was confirmed for Hellfest? Even if there aren't really a suspense about it, I haven't seen any confirmations yet.

Belgium has one of Metallica's favorite festival: Rock Werchter. When they don't play there, they've played a one-off event on Werchter's field or a stadium show in Brussels. I think 2 shows at Stade Roi Baudouin Stadium are more likely to happen than Graspop. But I'd love to be wrong of course!

Not if it's a festival only tour

And RaR/RiP.

That'd be an odd announcing strategy though. Them voluntarily dropping a big chunk of their lineup with 2 headliners blanked out, would rather imply those headliners won't be announced soon. Otherwise they could've just waited 4 more days before dropping the poster?

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
