Several bands have recently informed us of their unavailability for the 2022 edition. Indeed, the organization of some international tours is affected by the Covid situation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, we announce the cancellation of the following artists:&nbsp;<strong>The Wildhearts, Powerflo, Obituary, 3Teeth, Belzebubs, Numenorean, Of Mice &amp; Men, Justin(e), Legion of the Damned, Hatebreed and Crowbar<\/strong>. We learned a few days ago that a new \u2018headliner\u2019 could not be present for this 2022 edition:&nbsp;<strong>Avenged Sevenfold.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In spite of this setback, we did our best to find alternatives to guarantee a colorful line-up for this anniversary edition and we are now able to announce the addition of 32 new bands to the 2022 line-up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all, we are happy to announce that&nbsp;<strong>GOJIRA<\/strong>&nbsp;will close Mainstage 1 on the first weekend, for their only European festival show. What a pride to be able to place at the top of the biggest stage of the festival, a French band!&nbsp;Joe, Mario, Christian &amp; Jean-Michel, see you on Sunday June 19th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Concerning the replacement of Faith No More, we have been able to confirm it recently but it will only be announced in April. We find a band that you have been waiting for a long time, for a unique show in European festival this summer and that will have its place as a headliner on Saturday, June 18th on Mainstage 1!
