W:O:A Advent calendar 2020: The first bands and winners!

Today, on St. Nicholas Day 2020, we do not only present you the first bands of this year's Advent calendar, but also the winners of the first 5 days of our big raffle!

Today there is also a very special prize to win: A signed W:O:A electric guitar from our festival archives! Take part in the raffle at https://xmas.wacken.com now!

The bands:

There are many versatile musicians in Metal, but in the end there can be a maximum of three artists on the podium. And one of the three finalists is without any doubt Devin Townsend. He has also postponed his tour plans by one year and will be back at the W:O:A 2021!

And also Orden Ogan are joining in again! In this case the postponement means that we will be able to enjoy the upcoming new album "Final Days" at W:O:A 2021. The album was originally planned for the end of August this year.

The rest of the band announcements today will be about the Night To Dismember, our popular Black & Death Metal alternative program to the classic Night To Remember. We can confirm almost all bands of the brutal party in one go - we are happy to announce the booking of: Rotting Christ, Kampfar, Vomitory, Pestilence, Mork and Gaerea.
