Metalmania, the biggest indoor metal festival in Eastern Europe, returns to Spodek Hall (Katowice, Poland) on April, 7th 2018. The 24th edition of this iconic festival will be headlined by Emperor! Tickets go on sale on Wednesday, 9th August!

Norwegian Emperor is widely regarded as one of the most influential black metal bands. The group was founded in 1991 by Ihsahn and Samoth. They disbanded in 2001 following the release of their fourth album "Prometheus ' The Discipline of Fire & Demise". Ihsahn started a solo career under his own name, whereas Samoth and Trym Torson concentrated on the project Zyklon. They reunited periodically between 2005-2014. In late 2016 it was announced that Emperor will reunite again for a special set of performances to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their second studio album "Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk". This legendary album cemented Emperor's reputation as the flagbearers of black metal and is still recognized as one of the most influential in this genre. The band will perform a very special set at Metalmania Festival.

Metalmania Festival, one of the most important musical events of 20178, a real treat for metal maniacs! One day, two stages, several bands from all around the world and thousands of fans! That's what Metalmania Festival is all about! The last edition of Metalmania Festival took place at Spodek Hall in Katowice on April, 22nd 2017, with Samael, Coroner, Moonspell and Sodom on the bill!
