Closing sessions: "Angerfist LIVE, Sefa and Adjuzt will lead us to the end of the festival each day"

One of the highlights of every Decibel outdoor day is the closing session. Usually played by an artist who is at the top of the game, the music is joined by an outstanding production including pyro, lasers and other SFx. This year, none other than Angerfist LIVE on Friday, Sefa on Saturday and Adjuzt on Sunday will be responsible for playing the very last beats of each day, creating unforgettable experiences for thousands of people staying in front of the mighty mainstage at Beekse Bergen.

Savage Marathon: "The wildest way possible to close the weekend on style"

The mainstage of Decibel outdoor is always fully packed on Sunday, and with good reason. The legendary Savage Marathon has become the ultimate closing ritual. Expect nothing less than high-octane madness as Aversion, D-Sturb, Imperatorz, and Warface tear down the stage with explosive solo sets and mind-blowing back-to-backs. These final hours are where memories are made, fast, loud, and unforgettable. But that's not all. There's also an Uptempo Savage Marathon for those who like things even harder and faster. Brace yourself for relentless energy from Juliëx, Noxious, The Dope Doctor, and Major Conspiracy. Two Savage Marathons.

Ran-D brings full circle moment to Decibel outdoor 2025

After more than two decades of history with Decibel outdoor, Ran-D is set to deliver something truly special at this year's edition. Starting as a visitor at the very first Decibel events in 2003, the hardstyle icon went on to perform his debut Decibel set in 2010 and created the festival's anthem in 2016. "Decibel is in my DNA," explains Ran-D. "This festival brings it all together - the dedicated crowd, the special energy, the next level stage designs and show elements. Everything tuned to the same frequency." For Decibel outdoor 2025, Ran-D will present a one-off LIVE Anthem show, specifically crafted for this moment. The performance promises to be a culmination of years of experience, emotion, and energy, all packed into one unforgettable show that celebrates his deep connection with the festival and its community. Also, Unresolved, who made the anthem together with Ran-D, is going to play his special liveact which you surely have to check out.
