KEEP IT TRUE Festival - Lauda-Koenigshofen/Germany - 20.-22. April 2023

After a THREE years break the 20th anniversary of KEEP IT TRUE Festival in 2023 is history - and KIT 2024 is already being planned and the billing is nearly complete.

Unbelievable, but everybody who ever had the chance to join that completely different festival will agree. It´s not a only festival, but much more a familiy reunion of Metal Headz from all over the world. They come together each year at the end of April in a small town in a federal state called BADEN-WUERTTEMBERG/Germany. Each year the tiny litte town Lauda-Koenigshofen will be the "Holy Grail" for pure and traditional heavy metal music. And every year a finest choice of handpicked bands performing in a venue for 2500 people.

The organizers Oliver Weinsheimer and Tarek Maghary make every year the impossible possible. They are booking bands which are still existing since 25, 30 or 35 years - and are still legends. Or they persuade bands (which are splitted since years) for a come together for a one and only show during KIT - and sometimes it ends in a furious COME BACK.

One of this years headliners were SODOM, CIRITH UNGOL & GEOFF TATE.
