Hard rock hell x 2016 highlights


Hard Rock Hell is a three day music festival currently held at Hafan y Môr Holiday Park, Pwllheli, Gwynedd, North Wales, and up until 2011 at Pontin's Holiday Village, Prestatyn, Wales. Holding the festival in a holiday camp gives the organisers pre-built venues and stages and because of the on-site accommodation allows them to hold a multi day festival over winter/spring months when outdoor camping is not desirable. The first edition of the festival was held at Butlins Holiday Camp, Minehead, England but the festival relocated to its current location in 2008. The next edition of the festival will be held in November 2014.

Chicago rockers SOiL added as a last minute addition to Hard Rock Hell X, as a Fastway member needs to have hospital procedure on the day they are set to play Hard Rock Hell.

Glenn Hughes update as of 1st Nov "Due to the impact of Living Colour having withdrawn from the tour (i.e. Glenn Hughes & Living Colour Tour), Glenn Hughes has been left with no choice but to cancel all dates scheduled for the UK and Europe. Glenn hopes to play for UK and European fans as soon as possible to make up for this disappointment.

As a result HRH announced:-

Not much we can do when someone pulls their whole European tour, and while they are US based I'm not even going to try and start getting them in last minute as a one off, so..what's the solution...simple , up the game, so we are pleased to announce that Ginger Wildheart has stepped in at the last minute and will be replacing Glenn Hughes. As an extra, Ginger will also perform an HRH showcase of his new band, Hey ! Hello ! over and above the later Ginger Wildheart slot.

We love Glenn, but at such short notice, we feel Gingers last minute contribution will only bump up HRH X to another level."
