Attention metalheads and headbangers, it’s time to mark your calendars because Copenhell 2024 is roaring back to life, and this year’s lineup is hotter than the flames of Hades! From June 19th to 22nd, the heavy metal haven of Refshaleøen in Copenhagen, Denmark, will be your sanctuary for three days of unrelenting music, mosh pits, and memories that will last a lifetime.
A Little History Lesson
Copenhell, born in 2010, was Denmark’s maiden venture into the realm of open-air heavy metal festivals. Starting with just two stages, Helviti and Hades, the festival quickly grew in both size and reputation. The addition of the Pandæmonium stage in 2012 provided a platform for unsigned bands, which later evolved to host mid-size bands, and by 2019, Gehenna was introduced as the fourth stage, accommodating even more talent and variety.
