STEELFEST Unveils Rare Sets and New Accommodation
Finland’s STEELFEST 2027 continues to expand its 15th-anniversary lineup while also announcing new accommodation options in and around the festival grounds. The organizers have revealed several new names, including COMMANDER, while a limited number of additional hotel rooms and Steelstay accommodation inside the festival area have been made available again.
The festival’s 15th-anniversary lineup currently includes ABRUPTUM, DODHEIMSGARD, ARCHGOAT, MYSTIFIER, HORNA, OSCULUM INFAME, ACHERONTAS, SETH, WINTERFYLLETH, GRAVE MIASMA, INFERNAL WAR, SARGEIST, NORDJEVEL, ADORIOR, RIDE FOR REVENGE, SAOR, MORTIFERA, NYOGTHHAEBLISZ, KORGONTHURUS, BYTHOS, MOOSEGUT, MAQUAHUITL, CADAVERIC INCUBATOR, HIEROPHANY, MALAKHIM, AUTUMNS STRIFE, BLACK BEAST, GRIEVE, NEXUL, BELETHS TRUMPET, KRATTI, ABYSSION, RIETAS, and HELLGATE NECROSODOMY.
Several performances in the lineup will also feature special elements tied directly to the festival’s 15th anniversary. DODHEIMSGARD will deliver a special set dedicated to the 1995–1999 era, featuring material from “Kronet Til Konge,” “Monumental Possession,” “Satanic Art,” and “666 International.” OSCULUM INFAME will celebrate the 30th anniversary of their debut album “Dor-nu-Fauglith” with guest musicians, while ACHERONTAS will present the final performance of “And Cosmos from Ashes to Dust....” exclusively at STEELFEST XV.
The organizers have also made a notable statement regarding GRIEVE, one of the festival’s newly announced acts: the band will deliver a special performance at STEELFEST 2027 that they have never performed before and will never perform again.

Accommodation capacity in Hyvinkää is also filling up quickly around the festival period. Steelstay, located inside the festival grounds, sold out completely in 2026 but is now available again for 2027. Situated approximately 30 meters from the outdoor stage, Steelstay offers accommodation in a gym hall and/or classrooms. The option includes toilets, showers, 24/7 security, and a valuables cloakroom, with a total capacity of just 130 people.
While Steelstay offers the closest accommodation to the festival grounds, additional capacity has also been secured for the hotel option. The previously sold-out STEELFEST Hotel Package now has a limited number of rooms available again at Kiljava Resort. The package includes three nights of accommodation, breakfasts, and transportation between the hotel and the festival grounds throughout the festival days. The resort is approximately 20 minutes from the festival area by bus.

The official STEELFEST camping area is another option now available for 2027. Located approximately a five-minute walk from the festival gates, the camping area provides a 4 x 4-meter tent space per group, along with showers, toilets, and 24/7 security. Check-in opens on Thursday at 12:00 and remains open until Sunday at 12:00. The organizers also emphasize that every person staying at the camping area must have their own camping ticket.
Festival tickets are available through the official STEELFEST ticket page, while the hotel package can be accessed via Hotel Package, Steelstay via Steelstay, and the camping option via Camping Area.
