Das BRUTAL ASSAULT wurde, wie fast alle Festivals in Europa, auf das Jahr 2021 verschoben. Die gute Nachricht ist nun, dass ungefähr 90 Prozent der bestätigten Bands auch für das nächste Jahr zugesagt haben. Mit einigen Bands befinden sich die Macher des Festivals zudem noch in Gesprächen. Da das Festival zudem sein 15. Jubiläum feiert, wird es einen weiteren vollen Festivaltag geben, sodass das BRUTAL ASSAULT vom 10. bis 14. August 2021 stattfinden wird.
Auf der Facebook-Seite des Festivals heißt es in der Originalmitteilung: „As Brutal Assault had to be inevitably postponed to 2021 lots of you have been curious about the line-up. With great pleasure we can announce that the vast majority of the original line-up (90 %) is now confirmed for the next year! If you can’t find any of your bands do not despair just yet, re-scheduling is still in process and more band will join the line-up later on.
We would also like to remind you that the celebration of our 25th anniversary has extended with another (5th) full festival day – that being said you can expect some new big names to join the current line-up and they are definitely something to look forward to!
The five monstrous days of Brutal Assault will take place on August 10-14 2021. If you want to support us, get your ticket as soon as possible – can’t wait to see you!“
