Festival Venue

The festival grounds are located in the Pula area Štinjan, on the old Austro-Hungarian fortress Punta Christo. Erected in the late 19th century, The Punta Christo fortress is one of the biggest fortifications in Pula. It covers more than ten thousand square meters and has 270 rooms. From the fortress, embraced by a comforting pine forest, visitors can enjoy a picturesque view on the northern side of Pula bay and National park Brijuni islands.

Beautiful Beaches and cool tunnels.

Just a few minutes walk from the fortress you will find beautiful beaches where you can freshen up and relax in the crystal clear sea.

For those who prefer to avoid the sun, the fortress offers a variety of places for an afternoon chill. A terrace with a breathtaking view, where you can enjoy the summer breeze hidden in the shade, or a number of tunnels where the temperature doesn’t go over 25 degrees.

Take your pick!

GoatHell Metal Fest will lead a growing crowd of head banging metal pilgrims into the light of memorable vacation days as well as into eerily beautiful underground culture deep into the night.

With the exception of great metal entertainment and even better bands, GoatHell 2023 will be offering free parking and camping spaces, a wide variety of food and beverage, daily beach parties, panoramic boat tours, ancient and medieval fights of Roman gladiators and knights, exhibitions and so much more!
