Toyan St.Hilaire, GHOSTFEST’s director, comments:
“I have to be honest, after the sucess of last year’s Ghostfest, I really felt the pressure to put together an event to match it, but this year has well exceeded what I was hoping for! Once again there’ll be three stages and a varied mix of bands, so there will be something for everyone and we’ve booked some of the biggest names the festival has ever seen. This year is going to be BIG! Stay tuned for more announcements”.
Ghostfest was launched in 2005 by festival director Toyan St Hilaire, with a vision to put on the best small independent metal and hardcore festival in the country. Since its inception Ghostfest has grown rapidly from 250 to 2700 cap, selling out without fail every year. Many huge names have graced the festival’s stages, including The Blackout, Bring Me The Horizon, Whitechapel, Despised Icon, Architects, Job For A Cowboy, Cult of Luna, Gallows… the list goes on and on!
In 2010, Toyan expanded the Ghost brand by launching record label Ghost Music, releaseing records by Silent Screams, Advocates, The After Image, Chronographs and Odessa.
For the second year in a row, GHOSTFEST is partnering with Impericon and Rock Sound magazine and have brought in Hype clothing this year as the second stage sponsors. With more big hitting announcements over the coming months, Ghostfest 2013 is set to be the biggest it has ever been!
