ROCKSTADT EXTREME FEST is staying in Brasov County but moving to a new, larger home in Ghimbav for its 2026 edition. After years of growth from a modest festival in Rasnov, the event has outgrown its previous site, prompting the organizers to find a venue that can meet the demands of thousands of visitors and over 100 bands each year.

Ghimbav, located just 5 kilometers from Brasov and 10 kilometers from Rasnov, offers twice the space of the old Rasnov site. This expansion allows for larger productions, improved stages, enhanced festival design, more shade, and better overall amenities. Camping will no longer be a struggle, accommodations will be more accessible, and the Ghimbav train station is conveniently located right across the street.

The festival dates will shift to July 27-31, running Monday through Friday. While this means skipping the weekend, the new schedule enables ROCKSTADT EXTREME FEST to present its biggest lineup ever. The move also eases touring logistics for bands, allowing them to bring full productions and coordinate better with other major European events. Already confirmed are legendary acts HELLOWEEN and ACCEPT, performing special anniversary shows.

With many tourist attractions nearby, attendees can enjoy a full Romanian experience, using the weekend to explore Transylvania or rest after the festival.

Despite the move, ROCKSTADT EXTREME FEST remains true to its roots as a festival made by fans for fans. The decision was carefully considered to ensure the best possible experience, addressing past challenges while embracing future growth.

A more detailed lineup update will be shared during the 2025 edition, as the festival community moves forward together in this exciting new chapter.

In light of new fiscal measures imposed by the government aimed at reducing the national deficit, ROCKSTADT EXTREME FEST organizers are doing everything possible to keep ticket prices as affordable as they can. At the same time, they must balance covering the rising costs required to produce a festival of this scale and quality.

The team expresses deep gratitude for the trust and support of the festival community, emphasizing that maintaining accessibility while delivering a top-tier event remains their highest priority.

Fans can expect the best possible experience without compromising on safety, production, or comfort, as the festival navigates these financial challenges with care and commitment.
