Resurrection Fest

The first Hardrock Festival on our list is “Resurrection Fest”. This festival takes place in Viveiro, Spain. First starting out as a two day festival, it has grown into the massive four-day hardrock festival that it is known as today. One of the few 3+ day rock festivals around!

At Resurrection Fest, you can expect performances from artists such as Iron Maiden, Korn, Kiss, Scorpions, Down, Trivium, Crowbar, Black Flag, and many, many more!
