WGT banner It’s this time of year that Leipzig has already started ‘calling’ the pilgrimage for Wave Gotik Treffen that this year will take place from 2-5 June 2017. The bands that have already been confirmed show that this year we will be divided between gothic rock, apocalyptic folk, industrial and IDM dilemmas. It does not seem that a lot of metal music bands will be participating this year (it is still a bit too early to draw that conclusion though). A very pleasant surprise to see that The Mission who haven’t played at the WGT since 2002 will be returning this year, Cabaret Voltaire and Skinny Puppy will prepare exclusive shows for all of us , Mlada Fronta who have not played at WGT since 2000 will be making a special appearance this year and Corde Oblique, following their amazing show at Schauspielhaus in 2012, will also be part of the festival this year.We were delighted to see that Rotting Christ, a favourite dark/gothic metal band from Greece with a really unique sound, will return to the festival this year after their previous show in 2014.We will dare to wish that Diamanda Galas will be included in the programme as well, especially because she will be on a European tour around the time of the festival.We shall see…

As we are waiting for the official programme to be announced here is what we know so far from the official websites of some of the 115 confirmed (so far) bands that will participate in Wave Gotik Treffen of 2017!
