WYKKED WYTCHIn all, the festival will host more than 60 bands over the two days.
With an extensive background in the music business and live show promotion, promoter
Rob Mason has modeled the
Indianapolis Metal Fest to encompass all sub-genres of metal for a well-rounded and diverse lineup of bands.
Mason also remains committed to his original vision of shining the spotlight on the Indianapolis metal scene and the bands who grind it out in local venues every day.
"Even though the fest has increased in size, I'm very dedicated to the idea that
IMF will be a catalyst to present opportunities to local and regional talent," he said. "A band we put on the stage at
IMF last year was signed as a direct result of their performance. They weren't a local band, but the opportunity was there."
Tickets cost $30 in advance/$40 at the door for a two-day admission.
All tickets are general admission.
Indianapolis Metal Fest II is an all-ages show. "
