Available booking periods are: -October 12–19, 2026 / -October 20–27, 2026 / -October 12–27, 2026
As in previous years, the 4-star Iberostar Cala Barca will once again open its doors and transform into Mallorca’s heavy metal stronghold. Only here will you find the ”Wall of Splash” at the pool stage, only here will bearded metalheads hand out tiny yellow rubber ducks, and only here will hotel-bay yoga sessions be accompanied by loud, powerful growls. Full Metal Holiday isn’t just a trip—it’s a holiday where heavy metal is the universal language.
Week 1 Highlights: Axel Rudi Pell – Germany’s ultimate guitar knight! Wielding epic melodies with Johnny Gioeli on vocals, the hard-rock sword will be swung with style. The Haunted – After a cancellation in 2025, the Swedish wrecking crew is back in 2026 with their powerful blend of thrash and melodic death metal, ready to tear the island apart. Crucified Barbara – The Swedish rock queens have returned after a long break, bringing back hard rock and classic metal shows that are energetic, loud, and legendary. Bullet – Another Swedish powerhouse, keeping the classic heavy metal flag flying since 2001 with thunderous drums, classic riffs, and a fittingly titled new album, Kickstarter.
Week 2 Highlights: Beast In Black – Fan favorites delivering power metal anthems with epic choruses, already known far beyond genre boundaries. Jorn – Frontman Jørn Lande has been impressing audiences for over 25 years with melodic hard rock and heavy metal with a bit of pathos, delivered by his extraordinary and powerful voice. Frank Blackfire – The thrash guitar hero who left his mark with both Sodom and Kreator, delivering a “Best Of” set that’s like a history lesson played at full speed. Warrant – Not to be confused with the US glam-rock band, these Düsseldorf speed metal veterans return in 2025 with the album The Speed of Metal—fast, relentless, and full of energy.
The festival also offers an extensive supporting program with meet & greets, Maschine’s Late Night Show, plenty of sun, sea, and much more. So start thinking which week is right for you—or just celebrate both of them! Book now at: willst-du-weg.de
