GRASPOP METAL MEETING 2027 Adds SLASH FEAT. MYLES KENNEDY & THE CONSPIRATORS As Seventh Headliner

Graspop Metal Meeting 2027 turns up the heat with another major addition to its 30th anniversary celebrations. Legendary guitarist SLASH and his band MYLES KENNEDY & THE CONSPIRATORS have been announced as the festival's seventh headliner, joining the already stacked lineup for the milestone edition. The Guns N’ Roses guitar icon and his band will headline the North Stage on Sunday, June 20, bringing their signature combination of hard rock energy, explosive guitar work, and arena-sized anthems to Dessel, Belgium.

SLASH became a global household name through his work with Guns N’ Roses, providing the unmistakable guitar riffs behind timeless classics such as “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” “Welcome to the Jungle,” and “November Rain.” Beyond his legendary main band, he has built an impressive musical legacy through projects including Slash’s Snakepit and Velvet Revolver. In recent years, he has continued his musical journey alongside vocalist Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators, releasing four albums together.

In 2024, Slash explored his blues influences with Orgy of the Damned, featuring contributions from Brian Johnson, Iggy Pop, and Chris Stapleton. His next chapter with Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators is already taking shape, with their fifth collaborative album, Flying Blind, scheduled for February 2027.

Previous appearances at Graspop have left a lasting impression, and Slash will return to Dessel next summer to close the North Stage on Sunday, June 20. His addition brings the number of announced headliners for GMM2027 to seven, alongside PARKWAY DRIVE, FAITH NO MORE, EVANESCENCE, BLINK-182, MARILYN MANSON, and MÖTLEY CRÜE.

Graspop Metal Meeting celebrates its 30th anniversary from June 17–20, 2027, in Dessel, Belgium. Across four days, five stages, and an international lineup of hard rock and metal heavyweights, the festival promises another massive gathering for the global metal community. Tickets go on sale Saturday, November 14, at 10 AM via Ticketmaster, with Mastercard presale access beginning Thursday, November 12, at 10 AM.
