JAKARTA – The international concert scene faces a sudden shift this year. Ravel Entertainment recently announced significant changes to the Hammersonic 2026 lineup. World geopolitics unfortunately caused many sudden flight cancellations across the globe. Consequently, headline acts New Found Glory and The Story So Far cannot perform at the event. These external factors remained entirely outside the control of the organizers. However, the team worked tirelessly to maintain the festival’s high standards despite these challenges.
Fresh Faces Join the Roster
The festival organizers refuse to let the music stop for their loyal fans. They quickly secured impressive new acts to fill the empty slots. Dashboard Confessional and Ellegarden officially joined the updated lineup this week. Malevolence also joins the bill alongside several other upcoming announcements. These additions bring a fresh energy to the weekend schedule. Furthermore, the promoters guarantee an unforgettable experience for every Hammerhead in attendance.
Big Discounts for Dedicated Fans
Management understands the disappointment regarding the schedule changes. Therefore, Ravel Entertainment decided to slash ticket prices significantly. The price for a 2-Day Pass dropped from Rp 1,099,000 to just Rp 550.000. This adjustment means fans effectively pay only Rp 275,000 per day. Additionally, early buyers receive a special reward for their initial trust. Every single ticket purchased before this announcement now grants entry for two people.
A Sincere Message to the Community
CEO of Ravel Entertainment, Ravel Junardy personally addressed the community to offer a heartfelt apology. He acknowledges the excitement and planning that fans put into this annual gathering. He emphasizes that the team values the support of the audience above all else. Moreover, the festival maintains its original dates on May 2 and 3, 2026. Hammersonic 2026 still takes place at the NICE PIK venue in Jakarta as planned. Ultimately, the organizers promise to deliver a powerful show that honors the spirit of heavy music.
