Foo Fighters appear to have cancelled their touring plans for 2025. Hellfest founder Ben Barbaud confirmed the news, saying the band were previously set to perform at the festival.
Barbaud told Le Parisien the following about Foo Fighters, while addressing Muse's headlining slot:
Foo Fighters cancelled their summer tour.
They were offered to me on a platter. A month ago, I was offered to program them with a handful of other European festivals.
Foo Fighters having cancelled their summer tour, Muse was called in as reinforcements. I accepted because I was missing a headliner on Friday and because the Hellfest audience is more and more open. With age, I too have matured, I am less sectarian.
I created this festival for the love of punk, hardcore and at the beginning for the purists. But today, I prefer to shock them than to always do the same artists.
Foo Fighters' recent inactivity follows a confession from frontman Dave Grohl, who admitted to fathering a child outside of his marriage.
