Warriors of Steel Festival is Ålesund’s dedicated celebration of power metal, uniting fans and bands from across Scandinavia, Europe and the rest of the world for one epic night of soaring vocals, thunderous riffs, and heroic energy. Hosted at Terminalen, the festival delivers a premium lineup of melodic, symphonic, and true metal acts — a gathering of warriors, legends, and unforgettable live performances. 

Join the kick-off party with Ola Halén from Insania the day before the festival. He will play acoustic songs from Insania, his solo career and other great songs. Since there is only room for 100 people in the lounge area where the party is held, we will put out tickets early in 2026.
