Information
NOX OCCULTUM ascends into its second chapter.
Following in the path of the first edition, this carefully curated gathering will once again take place at the Hall of Fame in Tilburg, the Netherlands, this time on September 4 & 5 2026.
A festival not about the commercial value or the 'industry' but all about intension, immersive, genuine atmosphere and uncompromising sonic integrity, where chaos and beauty are felt. Not meant for all, intersecting death, black, and doom metal with dark, industrial, ambient noise. A place to endure and live through discomfort, music that truly moves you. Ascending from cult, underground and new rising performers in the extreme metal genre.
Join us in this second chapter, amidst the darkness and get your tickets NOW
