Singer/Guitarist Mikael Åkerfeldt of Opeth – “We’re excited to play the ArcTanGent festival in Bristol on the 21st of August 2020. Been to Bristol a few times and it’s always a pleasure. It’ll be one of the last festivals we play that summer, so we wanna “go out with a bang” and need your help and participation to do so.”
James Monteith of TesseracT – “It’s a huge honour to be asked back to ATG to play in 2020, probably the most forward thinking Rock music festival in the UK. It’ll be our only UK festival performance of the year, so we’re planning to make it a very special occasion. We have an exciting new production and stage design in the works, and maybe… just maybe there might be some new music too. Bring on ATG 2020!”
Ihsahn – “My very first tour outside of Norway was in the UK, back in 1993, and since then I’ve always loved coming back. This will be my first performance at the ArcTanGent festival and also in the Bristol area and I very much look forward to play.”
