Dear fans, friends, and supporters of Karlsruhe Deathfest,
this is not an easy message to write.
After a lot of thought, reflection, and many conversations behind the scenes with Friends and Family members, I’ve come to the decision that Karlsruhe Deathfest will not continue in the future. This means that the 2025 edition will stand as the first and at the same time the last one-day festival under this name.
This decision was anything but easy. The passion, energy, and support that all of you have shown for this event made it something truly special.
However, after carefully weighing everything involved: time, resources, and personal capacity I’ve realized that I won’t be able to move forward with the festival in a way that meets the standards it deserves.
I am incredibly grateful to everyone who believed in this idea: the bands, partners, crew, and especially you the supporters who showed interest, shared the vision, and kept the spirit alive.
Let’s make the 2025 edition something unforgettable.
Thank you for your understanding and your support.
