Seoul Hero Rock Festival Set to Ignite Spring with Stellar Lineup
4월 25~26일 양일간 서울 마포구 문화비축기지 개최
The 'Seoul Hero Rock Festival' began as a club festival in 2007 and is now returning with an expanded scale and infrastructure to welcome audiences. The festival has already proven its popularity with the first batch of 10,000 early bird tickets selling out completely, marking the official start of the festival season.
This year's festival boasts a robust lineup that spans generations. The first lineup includes Cherry Filter, Crying Nut, Daybreak, QWER, Romantic Punch, The Solutions, Schizo, Broken Valentine, HarryBigButton, Galaxy Express, Cadi, Far East Asian Tigers, Rolling Quartz, The Fix, Can't Be Blue, Sim Island, and Green Flame Boys, promising a wide spectrum from traditional rock to modern band sounds.
The second lineup, recently announced, adds Guckkasten, No Brain, Thornapple, Soran, Eve, Black Hole, Seoul Electric Band, Diablo, Method, Dr. Core 911, Zero G, Transfixion, Bugging Your Ears, Bursters, Nemesis, Crack Shot, Downhell, The Vane, Guys, ABTB, Noise Pollution, 87 Dance, Skipjack, Riot Kids, and Hatties, creating a complete lineup that combines the energy of traditional rock with contemporary flair.
Notably, QWER, emerging as a top artist for spring festivals, is expected to engage the audience with their refreshing band performance.
The 'Seoul Hero Rock Festival' aims to deliver not only musical enjoyment but also social significance. A portion of the festival's proceeds will be used for the conservation of the endangered Korean native species, the Korean fir, highlighting a meaningful connection between music and the environment.
A representative from The Moon Entertainment stated, “This year's festival is designed to maintain the essence of traditional rock while embracing diverse generations and tastes. It will be a special experience where audiences can enjoy music, space, and message together.”
Meanwhile, the 'Seoul Hero Rock Festival' will be held on April 25-26 at the Oil Tank Culture Park in Mapo-gu, Seoul.
