Good to hear about KoRn. Guess it gonna be Lokerse Feesten or Pukkelpop then... if they don't skip Belgium.

 

Rumours at Festileaks say there won't be a metal day at Lokerse.

Well that puts Korn firmly in the mix. QOTSA/Korn day would sell well. 

Say She She, Justice and Neil Frances from that line up please

The XXXXXXX name on there is supposed to be ASAP Rocky

KoRn have been announce as headliners for the Reload Festival in Germany on the same weekend as Pukkelpop. So seems they still gonna do metal festivals next Summer too. I don't think they're 100% out for Alcatraz but I'd love to see them at Pukkelpop on a nice heavier day.

Can't see what day they're playing but would imagine it'll be the 15th so they would travel from Germany to Belgium then onto France for Cabaret Vert, if indeed they do play Pukkelpop.

they're 100% out for alcatraz, it's either pukkelpop or lokerse feesten

Alkaline Trio + Descendents ruled out due to Brakrock Festival.

Let's see which 90's punk band gets the slot at Main Stage this year (I think that it will one between Offspring, Rise Against and Flogging Molly and the other two will play in Lokerse Feesten in the punkdag)

There's an interesting hole in the summer tour by The Smile between August 14 (Poland) and August 20 (Germany). They'll be playing in March in Amsterdam-Brussels (Amsterdam show already sold out, Brussels not yet), then I could see them being announced for Lowlands-Pukkelpop.

The Smile would instantly sell me at least a day ticket. Really hoping they're there.

From Festileaks - Big Thief seem to be ruled out, playing a standalone gig in Antwerp on Wed 14th. Big miss, that.

[johnybegood]

People from Festileaks seems to be sure that Korn will play Lokerse Feesten. I don't know why are they so sure because Pukkelpop has booked Slipknot, Limp Bizkit and Prophets Of Rage in their last 3 editions, and Korn are playing Sunday in Cabaret Vert, a festival that is 200km from Hasselt...

At Lokerse Feesten, they can have the headliner spot they won't have at Pukkelpop. And if I'm not wrong, all the shows/festivals they announced so far are as headliners.

Lokerse - 15k capacity as headliner or potentially 60k as sub (lets say 30-40k for the actual performance, realistically)

I think they'll be a sub for QOTSA at Pukkelpop personally.

But that's not how artists think, a lot of the times. It'll be headline or bust.

I get that. Doesn't appear that way for Korn though.

I mean this beats 2024 because of FF, Paramore, Alesso, Girl In Red and AFI for me. Otherwise, it's dead.

Korn will play Lokerse Feesten. That is 100% sure. 

My predictions:

The Offspring will take the "Limp Bizkit" slot (3rd down in the Main Stage)

No big surprises in the headline combo (Lana / Fred Again / QOTSA). Also expecting Sam Smith and a big belgian name in a high slot. 

Also expecting main stage appareances of Raye, Fountains DC, Louis Tomlinson, Loyle Carner, Jorga Smith and Idles.

During the weekend I think that Blondshell, Motionless in White, Red Fang, Gel, The Kills, Skrillex, Inhaler, The Haunted Youth, Destroy Boys, Say She She and Nova Twins will perform.

We are speaking about Europe. Not in the US. I'd love to have KoRn on a good day at Pukkelpop. Just have the feeling they might headline their own day at Lokerse Feesten. During the last days of 2023, I read rumors saying that KoRn won't play at metal festivals - which is not true anymore - and saying there won't be any Metal Day at Lokerse Feesten this year. So we'll see...

Right now, KoRn play in Berlin on 14th, possibly Reload Festival on 15th, available for Pukkelpop on 16th/17th, then play at Cabaret Vert on 18th and in Bonn on 19th.

So tomorrow we will have a clue about if Korn, The Offspring and Rise Against will play or not play Pukkelpop 2024.

Exactly. And it won't be their first metal festival this Summer at all like I said 😉 

Hope they gonna put a great line-up with them (if they are indeed confirmed tomorrow). 

[DDave]

Korn it is for Lokerse.

Well, my teenage-self would have loved to see them at Pukkelpop, too bad...
I can understand them not wanting to go in this direction but I find it a missed shot, especially given the return of hype which surrounds them at the moment.
