As the official partner of Reload Festival 2025, we are especially thrilled to be a part of the celebration of their 20th anniversary! The lineup is already set, and 75% of tickets are sold out. So, if you haven't secured yours yet, now's the time - because you don’t want to miss the following highlights!
Machine Head
Machine Head are making their Reload debut this year – and with a lot of momentum! They’ve been voted as one of the absolute favorites in fan polls. For many, this is the perfect chance to experience one of the greatest metal bands of our time live on stage as the headliner, all within the unique, friendly atmosphere of the festival. They’ve also released new singles this year, including “Unbound” and “Bonescraper”. A true highlight you won’t want to miss!
Gojira
Gojira have been at the top of modern metal for years – and in 2024, they’ve raised the bar even higher: With their new single “Mea Culpa (Ah! Ça ira!)” and strong performances at the 2024 Olympic Games, they’ve proven they’re full of fresh energy. Now, they’re bringing that power to the festival stage!
I Prevail
I Prevail made a huge impact with their 2022 album TRUE POWER – but it got even more exciting with their latest single “Hate This Song”, released in September 2024 with All Time Low. Even more thrilling to see them live in a festival setting! I Prevail have also just announced an exclusive concert in Leipzig, Germany - perfect for those who can’t get enough of their live shows. Festival performance plus headline concert? A perfect deal!
While She Sleeps
While She Sleeps are real regulars at the Reload Festival – and they definitely can’t miss out on the big anniversary celebration! Plus, we're still relishing the sounds of their current album SELF HELL, whose songs really come to life with an extra punch when performed live. A must-see for all modern metalcore fans!
Mastodon
Another debut: Mastodon will play at Reload Festival for the first time this year, bringing a breath of fresh air to the lineup! With their unique prog-metal sound, they’ll add variety to the program, offering an unforgettable mix of complex rhythms and epic melodies.
Donots
Donots have shown their versatility and expressiveness twice - first with their powerful collaboration with Heaven Shall Burn on “Keinen Schritt Zurück,” and again with their new single “Allein zu Allein.” They’ll also be performing at the Impericon Festival 2025 - because we all agree, you can’t have a 20th anniversary celebration without the Donots!
Landmvrks
Landmvrks are about to release their new album The Darkest Place I’ve Ever Been – and it’s clear that their performance at the festival will be a real highlight full of new material. Along with the already-released, hard-hitting singles, we can expect a lot of fresh material that will definitely make a huge impact live.
TBS
The Butcher Sisters (TBS) have brought new energy to their discography with their latest album Das Weiße Album. The mix of rap and hardcore adds exciting variety to the lineup, especially with catchy tracks like “Bauchtasche” and “Baggersee.”
Kublai Khan
Kublai Khan are currently in the spotlight, touring with Fit For A King as the opening act for Killswitch Engage – a clear sign of their growing popularity and the powerful energy of their live performances. With their new album Exhibition of Prowess, they’re making waves and delivering a mix of brutal riffs and emotional hardcore!
