The Hellfest Festival, born of the passion of a local child Benjamin Barbaud, became the greatest pride of the vineyard of Nantes. Since the beginning, its distinctive artistic project has enabled the festival to gain international recognition with artists and an audience of more than 70 different nationalities. By cultivating its difference and promoting cultural and artistic diversity, the Hellfest has definitely become one of the most beautiful events in France dedicated to extreme music.
