GRASPOP METAL MEETING 2026 Reveals Sunday Headliners: SABATON, DEF LEPPARD, ELECTRIC CALLBOY & ALICE COOPER

A new dawn rises for GRASPOP METAL MEETING 2026, and with it comes the final wave of headliners for Sunday, June 21. Following the massive announcements for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, the festival now unveils an explosive Sunday lineup featuring SABATON, DEF LEPPARD, ELECTRIC CALLBOY, and ALICE COOPER — a combination that promises to close out Belgium’s biggest metal celebration in spectacular fashion.

The mighty SABATON will once again march onto the South Stage, marking their ninth appearance at GMM since debuting in 2007. Led by Joakim Brodén and Pär Sundström, the Swedish war machine recently released their eleventh studio album Legends, a fierce new collection of battlefield anthems. Expect a thunderous live show filled with pyro, power, and plenty of crowd-singing moments as SABATON wage the final battle of the weekend.

Over on the North Stage, British icons DEF LEPPARD will bring generations of rock fans together with their timeless arsenal of hits. With over 100 million albums sold and a legacy spanning more than four decades, the band behind Hysteria, Pyromania, and High ‘n’ Dry continues to define arena rock at its purest. Prepare for an unforgettable night of hooks, harmonies, and high-octane nostalgia.

Joining the Sunday chaos, ELECTRIC CALLBOY return to Dessel to turn the South Stage into a neon-fueled dancefloor. Known for their euphoric blend of metalcore and electronic beats, the German collective’s infectious energy and party spirit are set to ignite one of the wildest sets of the weekend. Meanwhile, shock rock legend ALICE COOPER will bring his dark theatricality back to the North Stage, performing material from The Revenge of Alice Cooper alongside timeless classics like Poison and School’s Out.

GRASPOP METAL MEETING 2026 will once again transform Dessel into the roaring heart of the international metal scene from June 18–21, 2026, featuring five stages, world-class headliners, and a lineup that embodies the full spectrum of heavy music. Tickets go on sale Saturday, November 8 at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster, with Mastercard presales available starting Thursday, November 6. Full details at www.graspop.be — be there or be square.
