fortress festival add even more names for 2026


Today the mighty Fortress Festival announced Vespéral, Black Cilice, Atlantean Sword and Gate Master.

A claustrophobic ambience and suffocating riffs will wash over the Ocean Room on Saturday as Portuguese raw black metal act, Black Cilice make their Fortress debut. This will be the only show in the UK for the band

Known for weaving cryptic atmospheres and raw intensity, please welcome Gate Master to Fortress Festival.

Please welcome Atlantean Sword to Fortress Festival. The mysterious UK artist will bring some medieval and high fantasy adventure to our new dungeon synth stage in 2026.

Please welcome Vespéral to Fortress Festival. Not only will this be a UK debut by the mysterious Québec based band, but they will also perform a worldwide exclusive of their recently released and excellent album, La Mort De L’âme.

They now have just three more announcements to finish Fortress 2026; Two main stage bands and one final D.S act. They’ve saved some of the best until last so expect some good stuff to come in the near future.
