Besides the bands, the festival, which will take place on August 17th in Curitiba, will feature several unique attractions, such as flash tattoos, archery, and cutlery. But the biggest hit is the cosplay contest, complete with judges and a Pix prize of 300 reais. Registration for the contest has been extended until August 16th.
The festival will also host the second official meeting of FemMetal , a group created in May 2024 by Cinthia Mara – Cindoca , with the goal of uniting women in the Curitiba metal scene, whether they are artists or enthusiasts, working with metal or not. The first official meeting, which took place on July 27, 2024, was at the Bodebrown brewery, which represents Iron Maiden and Bruce Dickinson in Brazil. But FemMetal also has its own agenda with events and shows promoted by its participants.
It's time to show that everyone has a geeky side!
The contest was designed to foster creativity and give local artists a chance to showcase their work. Check out how to participate on the official Tormenta Metal Fest
