70000TONS.tv: THE UNITED NATIONS OF HEAVY METAL AT SEA! PLUS 70000TONS IN THE PRESS!

Ahoy Sailors!

Every year 70000TONS OF METAL unites Metalheads from around the world for an unforgettable journey across the sea. With fans and artists representing over 81 countries, our ship becomes a floating celebration of the global metal community — where language, borders, and backgrounds fade, and the music brings us all together. It's more than a cruise, it's a testament to the power of Metal to connect us all.

Whether it’s sharing stories over drinks, screaming the same lyrics from opposite sides of the pit, or discovering new bands shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers who feel like family, 70000TONS OF METAL is where lifelong friendships are forged. It's not just about where you're from, it's about what you bring to the experience, and how we all come together to create something bigger than ourselves. We truly are the United Nations of Heavy Metal at Sea.

We are buzzing with excitement for 70000TONS OF METAL 2026 and can’t wait to have you join us again for another year of Heavy Metal on the High Seas!

For the time being, let's revisit some incredible experiences from our last Caribbean journey!

BELLY FLOP CONTEST

Our legendary Belly Flop Contest just made another big splash — and our fearless floppers gave it their all in a hilarious showdown to belly-flop their way into glory! Once again this year, the individual jumps were judged by a select jury of musicians from the 70000TONS OF METAL lineup.

Brave jumpers gave it their all as they tried to impress Nick Miller from UNLEASH THE ARCHERS, Mikko Kotamaki from SWALLOW THE SUN, Garry Naples from TROUBLE, Alexander Boe from TROLLFEST, Sabrina Cruz from SEVEN KINGDOMS and Krista Shipperbottom from LUTHARO to become the official winner of the 70000TONS OF METAL 2025 Belly Flop Contest!

TWILIGHT FORCE x MAGIC: THE GATHERING

An absolutely mystical event took place on our 2nd day onboard 70000TONS OF METAL 2025 with TWILIGHT FORCE and MAGIC: THE GATHERING for some fantastical gameplay with our favorite Fantasy Metal friends at the Ale & Anchor pub. Players at every experience level came to play and make new friends. TWILIGHT FORCE were gracious and engaging with their fans, old and new. And Wizards of the Coast even provided complimentary game packs for all players!
