Heavy music gets a night of its own in Sofia. On November 11, in Hall 3 of the NDK, hardcore legends Hatebreed play the Bulgarian capital for the first time, and coming with them are Life of Agony from New York and End It from Baltimore - three names in one night, as part of the „East Coast Assault on Europe Tour 2026".

Hatebreed are one of the most important names in the American metalcore and hardcore scene. The band from New Haven, Connecticut, formed in 1994, and their debut album „Satisfaction Is the Death of Desire" (1997) earned them cult status. Over more than three decades, with frontman Jamey Jasta as the constant and eight studio albums behind them, they've remained one of the genre's defining acts. Jasta isn't just a singer - he hosted MTV's „Headbangers Ball" from 2003 to 2007 and runs his own hardcore label.

Alongside them, the stage will also hold Life of Agony, the New York band with a cult reputation in alternative metal, and End It from Baltimore, one of the most energetic new groups on the contemporary hardcore scene. For fans in the region who chase names like these across Europe, a triple billing in one night is a rarity worth the trip to Sofia.

Tickets are sold through ticketstation.bg and festteam.bg, and went on sale on June 10. The event takes place on November 11 in Hall 3 of the NDK in Sofia, Bulgaria.
