Music festivals in Belgium, including Alcatraz, Lokerse Feesten, and Into the Grave, have featured diverse live performances across various genres.

At the Alcatraz festival, programming included niche international acts such as Norwegian black metal band Witch Club Satan and local Belgian artists like Modder, Cowboys & Aliens, Ronkeren, and Hemelbestormers. The festival's "La Morgue" stage provided an intimate, underground atmosphere for these performances. Later, the Alcatraz lineup included a set by New York hardcore/crossover band Biohazard.

Lokerse Feesten featured headliner Lenny Kravitz alongside performances by Emmy d’Arc, DE’WAYNE, and a DJ set by Ilse Liebens. 

During the second day of the Into the Grave festival, performances included progressive metal acts Queensrÿche and Mastodon, as well as the Dutch metal battle winners Novelization and the band Wings of Steel.
