This new edition of the Durbuy Rock Festival’s rising band contest allowed 12 bands to prove themselves in front of our jury and it was Lost In Between, Strayed From Humanity and Bulldozer And The Machine Guns who won their ticket to the festival!

You will find these 3 bands opening the festival on Friday April 11 and Saturday April 12.

Last “discovery” band on the DRF 2025 bill before the 3 springboard winners: Diluvian. That’s good, they were already the best second of our springboards last year! But they owe their place here to the “Loud Clash” competition organized last May at the Reflektor by our partners Sphères Sonores. Welcome to this very promising Liège group!

New confirmation that will please fans of CORVUS CORAX and Acus Vacuum on Saturday afternoon: RELIQUIAE, little known in our country but who have already played several times in very big festivals in Germany: Wacken Open Air, Summer Breeze, Wacken Winter Nights, Feuertanz Festival, Wave Gotik Treffen …

For their first concert in Belgium, they will come with a special set that will cover their hardest and most danceable songs. A great Teutonic party in perspective!

New confirmation and another Belgian band, there will be many in 2025, and not the least!

Acus Vacuum is a Neo-Medieval/Pagan-Folk music group from the south of the province of Luxembourg, combining powerful medieval bagpipes with wild percussion!

They will come to present their new show with new members on stage, and it will be on the big stage!

Last big band confirmed on Friday, a legend of Belgian hardcore who is back: Length of Time. At the same time for several years its members have dedicated themselves and also evolved in different formations Wolvennest, Arkangel, La Muerte, Angel Crew, Backstabbers etc in which we always find an element of the state of mind of the group thus pursuing the apocalyptic quest that unites them!!! THE WAR GOES ON…

After the great success of the Night Fest Metal last Saturday in Arlon, here is a band that we saw there in 2019… Black metal fans will appreciate it, proof that in Manchester, there is not only Britpop. Thanks to Winterfylleth for coming from so far for this exclusive date!

Every year we end Friday with a festive and/or tribute band, for this 28th edition, we chose a great Flemish band that sets the biggest festivals in Flanders and Holland on fire, also at the last Dour or at the AB… “Earth’s mightiest Nu-Metal tribute band. We celebrate the entire era and party like it’s 1999!”. Welcome to Bizkit Park !

Almost all the Friday bands are known, the after party remains which will surprise more than one, an old school hardcore band, a “springboard” band, and Black Tartans who are back at the DRF with their first album under their arms… The kilts will be out on April 11 at Bomal!

Today’s announcement concerns a group of Walloon Brabant Trolls that we love and have supported for a long time via DRF Booking, yet their last appearance at the festival itself was already in 2021! We are very happy to see Aktarum again (with lots of new songs)!

Today’s announcement will please many folk lovers, but it will be Celtic folk, not folk metal, rather punk/rock in fact, so in perfect harmony with the punk/hardcore bands already announced for Friday! For the first time at the DRF, between Brittany and Scotland, between tradition and punk rock, welcome to the communicative energy of Celkilt.
