METALFEST OPEN AIR 2026 – Lochotín Amphitheatre, PILSEN – 5.–7. 6. 2026

METALFEST OPEN AIR 2026 is once again expanding its already very promising list of confirmed bands! Symphonic-power metal MOONLIGHT HAZE from Italy will also come to the Pilsen Lochotín Amphitheatre for the 15th edition of the festival!

The band was founded in 2018 by Chiara Tricarico and Giulio Capone (vocals and drums/keyboards). The line-up also includes Alessandro Jacobi (also bassist Elvenking), Alberto Melinato and Marco Falanga (guitars). This May, the band released a new album “Beyond”, which was produced by Sascha Paeth, known from Tobias Sammet’s project AVANTASIA. AVANTASIA is also associated with the charming singer Chiara Tricarico, who lends her distinctive vocals there. Before the band was formed, Chiara sang in another well-known band TEMPERANCE. Experienced musicians, a new album and pleasant music, all of this is MOONLIGHT HAZE, who are already looking forward to seeing you in PILSEN in June 2026!

Festival tickets, at a great price, valid until the end of September or until this second issue of tickets is sold out, can be ordered exclusively at this website. 

Don't forget to add camping and parking! This year, there is also a new option for accommodation in the luxurious CHILL VILLAGE with alrady pitched, equipped tents and free parking!
