A controversial precedent
For its 2023 edition, Hellfest welcomed 340,000 spectators. But the event was marked by several controversies: many festival regulars protested against an increase in ticket prices but also about the programming of artists convicted of domestic violence.
In particular the presence of Tommy Lee or Tim Lambesis, singer of the group As I Lay Dying, as reported Humanity at the time. The presence of Johnny Depp, accused of violence by his former wife Amber Heard, with his group Hollywood Vampires also raised questions.
Finally, the director of the demonstration Ben Barbaud was sentenced to eight months in prison last June for having embezzled 300,000 euros.
