Names like <strong>Hell and Heaven<\/strong>, <strong>Domination<\/strong>, <strong>Metal Devastation<\/strong>, <strong>Mexico Metal Fest<\/strong>, <strong>Candelabrum<\/strong>, <strong>Force Fest<\/strong>, <strong>Night of the Living Death<\/strong> and a long etcetera are increasingly common in our slang, but have you ever wondered how much it costs to carry out one of these festivals? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer to this is not easy to answer and depends on several factors, starting with the fact that not all of them cost the same but in no case will it be cheap. Of course, it is not the same to organize a Hell and Heaven or a Domination, as a Total Death Over Mexico or Mexxxicore Death Fest and we do not say it to demerit any event, but common sense dictates that <strong>Manowar <\/strong>or <strong>Misfits <\/strong>cobran mucho m\u00e1s &#8211; y es mucho m\u00e1s caro de producir &#8211; que Lvcifyre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31287\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-1170x780.jpeg 1170w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-585x390.jpeg 585w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-263x175.jpeg 263w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"http:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31287\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-1170x780.jpeg 1170w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-585x390.jpeg 585w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A-263x175.jpeg 263w, https:\/\/summainferno.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/xEiHVH9A.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption>Gojira at Hell and Heaven 2018<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Un festival de tama\u00f1o &#8220;peque\u00f1o&#8221; &#8211; por decirlo de alguna forma, tiene como ventaja que las bandas que generalmente forman parte de sus carteles no cobran un sueldo exhorbitante que no pasa los 5 mil d\u00f3lares o incluso hay ocasiones donde se puede negociar que las bandas no cobren un sueldo como tal, \u00a1ah! pero no te enga\u00f1es, de todas formas hay que cubrir sus gastos de transportaci\u00f3n, hospedaje, comidas y lo que sea que venga en el contrato. Tambi\u00e9n hay que considerar los costos de backline, microfon\u00eda, luces y sonido en caso de que el lugar donde se lleve a cabo el show no cuenten con ello, as\u00ed que por mucho que intentes ahorrar, estos festivales no cuestan menos de 150 o 200 mil pesos, si es que te va bien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of larger festivals where an attendance of between 10 and 30 thousand people is estimated, as in the case of the region <strong>Mexico Metal Fest<\/strong> or <strong>Candelabrum<\/strong>, things start to escalate. For starters, the cost of the bands is much higher, fluctuating between 15 thousand and half a million dollars for bands in the category of<strong> Overkill<\/strong>, <strong>Moonspell<\/strong> or <strong>Emperor<\/strong>. S\u00ed, es much\u00edsimo dinero. El tema de la producci\u00f3n igualmente se eleva porque adem\u00e1s generalmente se usa m\u00e1s de un escenario, adem\u00e1s de una serie de commodities, actividades &#8211; muchas veces pagadas por patrocinadores, tambi\u00e9n hay que decirlo &#8211; y por supuesto, la sede, la cual ya no es tan f\u00e1cil de encontrar como en el caso de los festivales m\u00e1s peque\u00f1os, pues necesitas un espacio lo suficientemente amplio para meter todo lo referente al festival y no te costar\u00e1 nada por debajo de una cifra con cinco ceros. \u00bfTienes un presupuesto por ah\u00ed entre 10 y 30 millones de pesos?

Do you want to introduce <strong>Metallica<\/strong>,<strong> AC DC<\/strong>, G<strong>uns N\u00b4Roses<\/strong>, <strong>Tool<\/strong>, <strong>Rammstein<\/strong>, <strong>Slipknot <\/strong>or <strong>KISS<\/strong>? No problem! But prepare to disburse between 1.5 and 5 million dollars for each one, plus the costs involved in the transportation of your human and technical team, the production costs and of course, how many demands they make to you, either from the moment you sign the contract or whenever they please, they are finally rockstars and if they want the moon, you have to lower the moon so they don&#039;t throw a tantrum!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tras definir el asunto de los headliners que gustes tener en el festival para el cual tienes estimada una asistencia entre 70 y 120 mil personas va el asunto de rellenar los otros tres o cuatro escenarios para lo cual deber\u00e1s tener un promedio de 50 bandas de nivel medio &#8211; alto como <strong>Korn<\/strong>, <strong>Gojira<\/strong>, <strong>Marilyn Manson<\/strong>, <strong>Behemoth<\/strong> or <strong>Bullet For My Valentine <\/strong>which will cost you between 20 thousand and half a million dollars each. Multiply! These bands of course will not accept anything less than a five-star hotel, transportation in luxury vans for themselves and their team, etc., etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a festival that will receive so many people also implies having a bigger venue and that the costs of security and logistics will rise. Adapting such a spacious venue is extremely expensive unless you have an agreement or your own and \/ or sponsored space. If we add up all these factors, a massive festival can exceed 200 million pesos in cost, also considering advertising costs. For this reason, it is necessary that the promoter companies seek the support of sponsoring brands that help make the events affordable and profitable, either by selling or promoting their product within the event, that is why a beer costs you 100 pesos, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us value more the effort of all the people who in one way or another have made the dream of having a wide variety of metal festival options in Mexico come true. Do you still find it expensive to pay 800 pesos for a subscription?<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cada d\u00eda hay m\u00e1s opciones de festivales de metal en M\u00e9xico, el sue\u00f1o de todo amante del g\u00e9nero en nuestro pa\u00eds.
