So this is it, folks – Beyond the Gates 2023 in all its glory! The festival is now revealing the daily schedules and is extremely excited to announce that its going even bigger this year! For the first time ever, Beyond the Gates will move into the new venue Kjødehallen, or simply “Hallen,” which is an old ship hangar. Hallen is located behind Røkeriet, and both are a part of the expanded cultural complex, USF Verftet. The old main stage, Røkeriet, which will still be used, is tied to Hallen by a huge parking lot where you’ll find food trucks, seated areas, DJs and more! The concerts will alternate between two venues – Røkeriet and Hallen. In addition, the shorter changeover times has given the festival the opportunity to add another band. Please welcome Spirit Possession to this already impressive lineup, who will now open the festival on Wednesday. This incredible duo knows how to encapsulate their riffs in pure magic. Be aware that the festival has sold out in several categories, including day tickets for Grieghallen on Saturday. There are only 10 festival passes left and club tickets are running low too. In other words – no need to sit on the fence. See you in a month! The eleventh edition of Beyond the Gates will take place in the heart of Bergen, Norway from August 2 – August 5, 2023! The full lineup and daily schedules, which includes Dimmu Borgir’s only performance in 2023 as well as special album sets from Deicide, Enslaved, and Primordial, can be found below! This pummeling festival will take place for four days across multiple venues, including USF Verftet, Kjødehallen, Kulturhuset, and the legendary Grieghallen, where many seminal Norwegian black metal albums were recorded in the 90s. Tickets can be found HERE. |
