📋About
Sjock Festival 2026: the rock festival in Gierle, Belgium
Sjock Festival takes place annually in Gierle, a rural municipality in the province of Antwerp in Flanders. This 2026 edition, scheduled from July 10 to 12, brings together 11 artists for three days of classic and alternative rock. The countryside setting and friendly atmosphere make Sjock a reference for lovers of authentic sounds, far from standardized mega-festivals.
The 2026 lineup highlights American and European rock legends, with Chris Isaak, Joan Jett and Southern Culture On The Skids headlining. The festival also explores garage punk with Cock Sparrer.
Sjock cultivates a roots spirit, blending pop rock, psychedelic rock and rockabilly influences. The reduced capacity and sound quality attract a loyal, often multi-generational audience, coming as much for the music as for the family atmosphere of the campsite and local bars.
From July 10 to 12, 2026, Gierle becomes the rock epicenter of Flanders. Check the lineup and book your tickets.
