Křižík Pavilions (Prague 7) - Prague Planetarium (Prague 7) - Futurum Music Club (Prague 5)
After two years of anticipation, Prague Death Mass V is set to unfold over five unholy nights, marking the return of one of Europe's most respected and elusive underground black metal festivals. Running from October 29 to November 2, 2025, this milestone edition expands both in scale and vision, presenting 35 bands across three 3 venues, and culminating in a once-in-a-lifetime immersive experience at the Prague Planetarium.
MAIN RITUAL: Oct 30 – Nov 1 at Křižík Pavilions (Prague 7 - Výstaviště)
The heart of the festival takes place over three nights at the Křižík Pavilions - a new, more spacious sanctuary for this black mass. True to its tradition of carefully curated lineups, Prague Death Mass V transcends genre orthodoxy while remaining anchored in the bleak roots of black metal. Expect performances from a potent international mix of genre's legends, rare acts and cult obscurities:
ADVERSARIAL, ALTARS ABLAZE, ATTIC, AURA NOIR, BLACK OATH, BLASPHEMY, DEATH WORSHIP, DEATHLESS VOID, FUNEST, GAAHLS WYRD, HILD, MALHKEBRE, MORTUUS, NEPTUNIAN MAXIMALISM (2 different sets), PROFANATICA, SATURNALIA TEMPLE, SEKTARISM, SISYPHEAN, SOTHERION, SPITER, THE RUINS OF BEVERAST, THY ANTICHRIST, TORMENTOR, ULTIMA NECAT, VAFURLOGI, VARATHRON, VEMOD, VIANDE, VOMITVULVA
ANTE-LITURGIA (Opening Ceremony): Oct 29 at Futurum Music Club (Prague 5)
The festival opens with Ante-Liturgia, a free warm-up event exclusively for full-festival ticket holders, held at the legendary Futurum Music Club - the same venue that hosted the iconic second and third editions of Prague Death Mass in 2013 and 2016. Featuring:
TÖRR (performing “Witchhammer” exclusively), FÍR, KVR, SILVA NIGRA, CIEŃ
This night serves as a bridge between past and present, invoking the spirit of earlier editions while setting the stage for what is to come.
PLANETARIUM DEATH MASS: Nov 2 at Prague Planetarium (Prague 7)
In a fittingly transcendent close, Prague Death Mass V will conclude with the Planetarium Death Mass, a highly limited post-festival performance featuring MYSTICUM and VEMOD (special set) within the Prague Planetarium - a venue equipped with Europe’s most advanced 8K LED dome system.
This exclusive audiovisual ceremony, limited to only 280 attendees, fuses live performance with cutting-edge immersive visuals, promising a ritualistic experience unlike anything previously witnessed on the continent.
