With the immense success of Milwaukee Metal Festival in 2023, the festival has announced that they will return for the 2024 edition. The first wave of bands has been revealed by the festival, which showcases a diverse and hard-charging lineup. The fest will start on May 16, and the main festival will run from May 17 to May 19 at The Rave/Eagles Club in Milwaukee, WI.
MKE Fest co-organizer and Hatebreed frontman Jamey Jasta shares his thoughts:
“We extremely excited to have Milwaukee Metal Fest not only coming back for another insane year, but this time around we have added power metal, more black metal, more doom, and some other surprise elements that were not logistically possible last year. This is just the first of many announcements on the horizon and I can’t wait to see everyone in Milwaukee next May!
“Sound Talent Group’s Tim Borror adds, “Milwaukee Metal Fest 2023 was so awesome, but more importantly, it’s a stake in the ground of how important and vital metal music is. Especially extreme metal! Twenty-twenty-four is going to be even more incredible. Come hang with us in May”

Mr. Bungle
