Wacken Metal Battle USA  is returning in 2022 after two years of missed battles across America due to the Covid pandemic. For its last three years (2017-2019),  Wacken Metal Battle USA  has hosted battles across the country to send one independent metal band to perform at the world's largest metal festival  Wacken Open Air  in Wacken, Germany. 2019 saw the festival celebrate its 30th anniversary, but due to Covid, the 2020 and 2021 editions were both canceled. As the metal community regains its strength,  Wacken Open Air  2022 will be the 31st edition of the festival and will be held from August 4th to 6th. The 2022 event is already sold out with a line-up that includes Slipknot, Till Lindemann (Rammstein), Judas Priest, Limp Bizkit, As I Lay Dying, Lacuna Coil, Danko Jones, Gwar, Death Angel, Tarja, and many more. Details  here .

For over a decade at  Wacken Open Air , independent metal bands from around the globe have been performing in front of thousands and competing against one another for one to be crowned champion of the international battle at the festival along with winning multiple prizes. For 2022,  Wacken Metal Battle USA  is returning to America and will be hosting qualifying rounds in select cities across the nation.
