Reaper's Fest

Reaper's Fest, Metal and Kustom Kulture Festival in Territoire de Belfort

Born in Valdoie, a commune in Territoire de Belfort bordering the prefecture city, Reaper's Fest has become in just a few editions an unmissable event for lovers of extreme music and alternative culture in the Grand Est region. The festival is held at the Stade du Monceau, Rue Auguste Renoir in Valdoie, a space that accommodates concert stages, exhibitions, and outdoor stands.

Metal, Punk, and Hard Rock on Stage

The musical program of Reaper's Fest focuses on extreme and alternative music. Metal, punk, hard rock, doom, thrash, and their derivatives play out on the main stage, featuring bands from the regional, national, and international scene. The festival's philosophy is to promote independent artists and underground bands while also welcoming more established acts capable of drawing a crowd.

Kustom Kulture: Motorcycles, Tattoos, and Alternative Art

Beyond music, Reaper's Fest embraces the world of Kustom Kulture, a subculture born in 1950s America centered around the customization of motorcycles and cars. The festival offers:

• Exhibitions of custom motorcycles: choppers, café racers, bobbers, and other unique machines presented by their owners
• Tattoo and piercing: tattoo artists and piercing practitioners present at the event for sessions done on-site
• Craft and alternative stands: creators in the rock'n'roll spirit, leather goods, jewelry, and accessories
• Motorcycle ride: a motorcycle rally open to all types of machines, organized on Sunday morning

A Festive and Fraternal Spirit

The DNA of Reaper's Fest is above all about welcome and sharing among fans of metal and motorcycle cultures. The event strives to create a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, far from the clichés often associated with these worlds. The Territoire de Belfort, with its industrial tradition and working-class culture, provides a naturally fertile ground for this type of event.
