Accept

Accept, the titans of German heavy metal, take the stage at Graspop Metal Meeting 2026, one of Europe's most beloved and iconic heavy metal festivals. Set against the sprawling grounds of Festivalpark Stenehei in Dessel, Belgium, the Thursday Pass on June 17, 2026 delivers a relentless barrage of metal excellence that only Graspop can provide. Accept's thunderous riffs, soaring vocals, and decades of genre-defining anthems make them an unmissable cornerstone of this legendary lineup. The Thursday bill is nothing short of extraordinary, featuring a stacked roster of metal and rock royalty alongside Accept. Megadeth and Anthrax bring thrash metal thunder, while Limp Bizkit ignites the crowd with their explosive nu-metal energy. Tom Morello, Pennywise, A Day to Remember, Static X, Bloodywood, Cult Of Luna, and rising acts like Faetooth and Dying Wish round out a day that spans the full spectrum of heavy music. Whether you're a long-time devotee or discovering the genre for the first time, every set promises raw, unfiltered power. Graspop Metal Meeting is renowned for its passionate community of fans, world-class production, and an atmosphere that transforms a Belgian field into the spiritual home of heavy metal for a weekend. With cold drinks in hand and the ground shaking beneath your feet, this is the kind of experience that forges lifelong memories. Accept's performance alone is reason enough to make the pilgrimage — but with this lineup, it becomes an unmissable chapter in metal history.
