The extreme music festival of Anjou
Born in 2019, Omega Sound Fest fills a gap in the extreme music landscape in Anjou. Created by the association CROM and Omega Sound Prod, this festival has quickly become the essential event for metal, punk, and hardcore enthusiasts in the Angers region. Located just five minutes from Angers and an hour from Nantes, the Centre Culturel Jean Carmet in Mûrs-Érigné offers an ideal setting for two evenings of intense concerts.
Each edition features ten bands spread over two evenings in a covered venue. The programming covers a wide spectrum of extreme music: metal, death metal, stoner, punk, hardcore, folk metal, and many other subgenres. The festival alternates between headliners from the French and international scene and emerging bands, offering a showcase for the talent of the French metal scene.
Since its creation, Omega Sound Fest has experienced steady growth. After attracting over 2,000 people in 2024, the festival continues to develop while maintaining its friendly spirit and human dimension. The atmosphere is resolutely family-friendly (in the metalhead sense of the term): local beers, camping, parking, merchandising, and a warm welcome are the hallmarks of the event.
The festival is actively working to strengthen its accessibility measures for people with disabilities, with enhanced measures planned for future editions. This initiative demonstrates the organizers' commitment to making extreme music accessible to the widest possible audience.
Omega Sound Fest returns for its 7th edition on October 9 and 10, 2026, at the Centre Culturel Jean Carmet in Mûrs-Érigné. Ten bands will perform over two nights of extreme music. The festival plans enhanced accessibility measures for this edition. The lineup will be announced in Spring 2026 on the official website.
