Vagos Metal Fest announces first names for its 2023 edition

Fresh off an explosive fifth edition that culminated with the definitive debut of Emperor in Portugal, Vagos Metal Fest confirms the first names that will be performing next year at the festival. At the forefront, we have the filthy, belligerent and obnoxious blackened speed metallers Midnight, who will make their return to Portugal after four years to present their brand-new record of unfiltered savage animalisticness, Let There Be Witchery, as well as the Australian melodic death metal group Be’lakor, who are also returning to Portugal to present their latest full-length release, Coherence. Also confirmed are the Portuguese black metallers Corpus Christii and symphonic metal outfit Glasya, both of which will be presenting their brand-new releases, The Bitter End of Old and Attarghan, respectively. A lot more names will be revealed in due time, so keep your eyes peeled for further announcements.

Vagos Metal Fest 2023 takes place at Quinta do Ega, in Vagos, on August 3rd-5th. Early bird tickets are now available for 70 euros and limited to a quantity of 150. They can be purchased online via Bilheteira Online.
