15th Armstrong MetalFest July 11 and 12
Perfect time for a road trip!
Celebrating 15 Years of mountain moshing in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley, Armstrong MetalFest returns July 11 and 12 with Born of Osiris, Havok, Glyph, Riot City, The Browning, Virvum, and lots more bands from across Canada and beyond.
Hosted on July 11 and 12 in Armstrong, BC at the Hassen Arena, this year’s two days of moshing, headbanging, and camping is a very special one.
“The band council worked hard on this year’s lineup. I am so excited to have the Browning back. They were amazing on stage. I have been wanting to see Born of Osiris play live for years. I love them, and now I get to see them in my own little town,” said Heather Valstar, Vice President of West Metal Entertainment Society.
“This year’s festival is a work of art! I can’t believe we are on the 15th year already. Time flies when you’re setting up a festival full of crushing riffs, soaring vocals and down-right nasty beats. Life rules, bring on the summer,” said festival co-founder and General Manager Jessie Valstar.
All tickets provide general admission and grant access to the festival grounds, camping area, and arena from 9 a.m. on Friday, July 11, until 10 a.m. on Sunday, July 13. Free camping is included.
In addition to the performing bands, Armstrong Metal Fest will be bringing back the following on-site activities: Yeti Games, Metal Madness Market, and Thrash Wrestling.
