BOUM PATAT Announces EU East Tour 2026 — Belgium's Electro-Fun-Metal Mayhem Is Coming to Eastern Europe

Get ready for a dose of absurd energy and high-octane riffs. Following the breakout success of their latest album Ma Belgitude, the undisputed icons of Electro-Fun-Metal, BOUM PATAT, have officially announced the first leg of their 2026 European takeover.

Kicking off this April, the band will bring their signature blend of heavy metal, pulsating electronic beats, and surrealist Belgian humor to the underground clubs and festival stages of Eastern Europe.

After catching the attention of metal critics across the continent, BOUM PATAT is set to deliver their legendary "festive chaos" to fans in Slovenia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, including a headline appearance at Future Shock Fest in Satu Mare

"We don’t just play a show; we bring a Belgian block party to the mosh pit," says the band. "Eastern Europe has a legendary metal scene, and we can’t wait to see how they handle the BOUM PATAT energy."

This Eastern Europe leg is the first part of the BOUM PATAT EU Tour 2026. A second leg across Western Europe, including France, Belgium, Germany, and more, is planned for November 2026, with dates to be announced soon.

BOUM PATAT is the new electro fun metal project by Belgian musician Olivier Wittenberg, former drummer-composer of Manic Movement. In the 2000s, he toured Europe with bands like Kreator, Moonspell, and Psychotic Waltz, and played major festivals such as Graspop Metal Meeting.

After a long break, he returns with Ma Belgitude, a self-produced solo debut that blends heavy metal, Belgian humor, and old-school electronic sounds. BOUM PATAT breaks metal’s usual codes—serious and absurd at once, mixing groove, industrial, and electronic punch with offbeat themes and playful visuals.

Live, the project becomes a trio with Laurent Soulasse (bass) and Maxime Demulder (drums).
