A strong sea breeze is rising as Full Metal Holiday once again invites fans to a metal vacation under the Spanish sun in 2026. From October 12–19, 2026 (Part 1) and October 20–27, 2026 (Part 2), fans will gather in Mallorca for a unique combination of festival and getaway. Act fast, as tickets are now only available for the second festival week at willst-du-weg.de.
For Part 2, the unique Skindred from England join the lineup. Known for their blend of metal, alternative, and reggae, the band has been delivering high-energy live performances for years. The program is further expanded by Lansdowne from Boston (USA), Sweden’s Ambush, and Sabina Classen’s Temple Of The Absurd from northern Germany.
Part 1, which is already sold out, is also receiving additional acts: The Butcher Sisters, Tri State Corner, 9mm Headshot, and Temple Of The Absurd expand the lineup with four more bands.
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.
Line-Up Part 1: Axel Rudi Pell, The Haunted, Crucified Barbara and Bullet.With new additions: The Butcher Sisters, Tri State Corner, 9mm Headshot and Temple Of The Absurd.
Line-Up Part 2: Beast In Black, Jorn, Frank Blackfire and Warrant. With new additons: Skindred, Lansdowne, Ambush and Temple Of The Absurd.
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 at: willst-du-weg.de
