After three editions that have established Heavy Week-End as a must-attend event on the heavy music scene, the festival, organised by Gérard Drouot Production, is gearing up for another year that is already set to get people talking!
On December 10, 2026, Les Foudres will take the stage at the Bataclan in Paris for its second edition, featuring fourteen categories, four bands performing live, and, most notably, its first-ever prime-time broadcast on France 4 and france.tv. Organized by Paris Entertainment Company and the Fédération des Musiques Métalliques, the ceremony aims to use this national platform to showcase the full diversity of a scene that certainly cannot be easily summed up.
What better way to kick off October than by going to a concert? And even better… a Beartooth concert? For the album Pure Ecstasy? At the Elysée Montmartre? We were there, and here’s our report.
