After some very challenging years amid the pandemic, the organizers of the annual ‘Maryland Deathfest‘ announced that the fest would be going on indefinite hiatus following the conclusion of this year’s event last May.
While the festival will still be sitting out 2023, the organizers have now announced that the festival will return to Baltimore, MD on May 23rd-26th in 2024. Additionally, the organizers have also mentioned that the flagship Maryland event will be their sole focus going forward, eliminating ‘Deathfest-branded events outside of Maryland following next month’s ‘UK Deathfest‘.
A statement issued on the matter yesterday (August 02nd) reads:
“Maryland Deathfest will return in 2024 for its 19th edition on May 23-26, 2024.
We won’t be determining the venue format, booking/announcing bands, or going on sale with tickets for MDF XIX until sometime in the first half of 2023, but for now, go ahead and pencil in the dates.
Moving forward, Maryland Deathfest will be the only festival we produce. The upcoming UK Deathfest in London next month will be the last of our events outside of Maryland.”
