Notice to festival-goers who come by car, it is no longer possible to park on the roundabouts or sidewalks of Clisson, nor on the RD 149 which is closed. Thus, to park, you will have the choice between two car parks:
- For Parisians, Nantes residents or Angevins, the Hellfest west car park is a new car park with 13,000 spaces covering an area of 39 hectares with 98 aisles who temporarily took place on the wasteland of the Château de l’Oiselinière in Gorges. The parking area accommodates 12,000 to 13,000 vehicles. Nine shuttles run 7 days a week and 24 hours a day until Monday, June 27 at 6 p.m. to connect this car park to the festival every 5 minutes. You will be dropped off by shuttle bus at the giant Gibson roundabout.

On these two car parks, theMotorhomes and converted vehicles are allowed but not tents, campfires, gazebos and other camping structures.
Hellfest has chosen the company Weezevent for the implementation of the bracelet as the only means of payment at the bars and food stands of the festival. On site, more than 40 stands offer food of all kinds, even for vegetarians, not to mention the many bars for beer and Muscadet lovers.
Accustomed to offering this service, particularly at competing festivals, the company enjoys a reputation as a quality service provider in this exercise, which largely justifies this decision. More than just paying for drinks, the Hellfest wristband also serves as an entry pass to the festival. On the festival-goer side, we greatly appreciate this device called Cashless.
Thanks to the bracelet, many were able to let loose freely in improvised choreographies without risking losing the money kept in their clothes. When the credit of the bracelet is exhausted, it is enough simply to recharge it with the volunteers of the festival. Finally, notice to festival-goers for whom there is money left in the bracelet after the festival, you have the possibility of having it reimbursed from your online account from June 27 to July 10, 2022. After this date, your balance will automatically be reallocated to the development of the artistic and cultural project of the Hellfest Productions association.

Beyond the gargantuan programme, novelties await festival-goers. Starting with a new Lemmy Kilmister statue, the leader of Motörhead, in the old place near the Hellfest Warzone. Created by the sculptor Caroline Brisset, the statue sits in the same place, designed with more resistant materials. It contains an “urn” with a “bag of Lemmy’s ashes inside” displayed with armored glass. In addition to the giant Gibson on the roundabout at the entrance to the Hellfest site in Clisson, a giant guitar is now installed on the forecourt of Nantes airportto welcome some 10,000 festival-goers from all over the world.
In order to improve the conditions of some 60,000 festival-goers expected, the organizers of Hellfest have changed the rules for water consumption within the festival grounds. Water bottles and plastic bottles are now allowed with “only water or non-alcoholic beverages” anywhere inside. To fill its bottle, the organization has scattered around the Hellfest site around a hundred taps. “The public will be watered regularly,” said Hellfest boss Ben Barbaud. Indeed, the organization has invested in four giant foggers that can project cool mist up to 60 meters.
