And so far Behemoth and Konkhra are confirmed to play.
Already ordered for myself and the GF - just waiting for their CC system to go live before paying.
With camping it does get a bit pricey...
But you are seeing 9 international bands and it costs a lot of money to bring those bands out...
Think they are cutting down on the number of bands in general.
5 local acts per day - and then 3 internationals per day.
Think this is so that each band can get more stage time - 2015 was a little rushed.
RAMfest are making a scene on Facebook now over their proposed dates, saying it's not an attack on Witchfest. Can't link it here (blocked at work), but check it out. The dates they want are at the same time that Witchfest will be on (last weekend of March). Tbh, I'd go for Witchfest without a moment's hesitation.
At the Gates gig in May has been cancelled - they will now be playing at Witchfest next year.
The Haunted also confirmed for witchfest next year:

Good news imo
