Kylesa performs at the Decibel Metal & Beer Fest 2026, a heavy metal festival featuring craft beer tastings at the Fillmore Auditorium.
Kylesa are playing the Fillmore Auditorium on Saturday, December 5, as part of the Decibel Metal & Beer Fest. The festival runs Friday, December 4 and Saturday, December 5, with a pre-fest on December 3, so if you're coming for the whole thing, you've got three days of music to work with. The Fillmore is at 1510 N Clarkson St in Denver.
Kylesa shares the bill with a long list of names: Down, Cro-Mags, Suicidal Tendencies, Pig Destroyer, Intronaut, Black Breath, axeslasher, BLKIIBLK, Clusterfux, Haggus, In The Company of Serpents, Prowler in the Yard, The Age of Quarrel, Victim of Fire, and Wayfarer. That's fifteen bands across the weekend, so there's plenty to pick from regardless of where your taste in heavy music lands.
The festival is curated by Decibel, the metal publication that's called itself "extremely extreme since 2004." It grew out of the magazine's North American tours in the 2000s—which featured Behemoth, Cannibal Corpse, Carcass, and At the Gates—and from its monthly craft beer column that launched in 2009. The fest itself started in 2017 with a Philadelphia edition, later added a Los Angeles weekend, and now runs annually at the Fillmore in Denver. Past editions have brought in Sleep, Municipal Waste, Power Trip, Cryptopsy, Autopsy, Baroness, Deafheaven, and Obituary.
