Holland's very own Roadburn Festival has become the leading underground festival for Stoner Rock & beyond.

Originally a spin-off of the Roadburn website the Roadburn Festival has emerged as an event in its own right. It brings together bands, fans & media from around the world. Despite it's international acclaim, Roadburn retains an underground vibe and ethics, but with seriously big-league production values.

The core of 13th Roadburn Festival will be Friday, April 18th and Saturday, April 19th, 2008. We're aiming for approximately 14 to 15 bands each day, with sounds ranging from stonerrock to modern psych, and from the heavy 70's to avant garde metal.

We will have the opportunity to add two addional dates to the festival, Thursday, April 17th [Roadburn's Pre-heat], and Sunday, April 20th [Roadburn's Afterburner]. We can use 013's main room [the 1750 capacity auditorium], and it's our intention to offer special shows on those days.

The shows will be smaller, with only 2 to 4 bands, but everyone will be hand-picked to the same standards as all Roadburn-related shows. We may try to put on shows from bands that won't fit the festival because of their setup requirements. There will be separate tickets available for these additional shows.

Ticketing and camping information will be forthcoming as soon as the lineup is solidified. We're aiming to get this done in November.

Stand by for further announcements.
