GoatHell Is Back!

After the administrative obstacles that followed us throughout 2023 and last year's break,GoatHell is returning this year in a slightly different form.

We have prepared a one-day open-air event at a new location — the courtyard of Community Center Rojc, right in the heart of Pula.

This edition is dedicated to true underground enthusiasts and the old guard who grew up with cassette tapes and fanzines. No compromises!

Among others, we are bringing two iconic European bands to the stage. After 20 years, Impaled Nazarene will return to perform in Croatia, while Disharmonic Orchestra will make their comeback to Pula after 33 years, where they played their first and, so far, only concert in Croatia in 1993.

Tickets will be on sale soon, and we'll be revealing all the remaining details in the coming days —stay tuned and keep an eye on our social media!

See you at DC Rojc!

The Setting

A barracks
reborn in
fire.

One day of extreme metal inside the walls of a historic Austro-Hungarian barracks in the heart of Pula — the best metal summer send-off on the Istrian coast.

Društveni centar Rojc (Community Center Rojc) is a former Austro-Hungarian military barracks in the centre of Pula, reborn as a sprawling cultural centre. Bare concrete, long corridors and a walled courtyard make a fittingly raw home for a day of extreme metal.

On the south-west coast of the Istrian peninsula, Pula pairs Roman ruins and the Adriatic with a metal crowd that travels from all over Europe.
