The Progspace

In October 2016, a small group of music lovers launched The Progspace from their living rooms. No budget. No ads. No agenda. Just a shared love for those countless bands and musicians in progressive rock and metal that get overlooked too often.

Ten years on, we have published hundreds of reviews and interviews, put countless weekly releases in the spotlight, covered festivals and concerts across Europe, launched a podcast, and put on three free online festivals during the pandemic. Never charging a band, label, or PR agency a single euro.

This November, to celebrate our 10th anniversary of The Progspace we're doing something we’ve never done before: a live show! One stage. One big party. Four bands we genuinely love.

And it’s not only The Progspace’s anniversary: two of the founders have reason to celebrate as well. Dario turns 40. Van turns 50. Together, that’s 100 years of love for progressive rock and metal! This event is our thank you – to the bands and to everyone who’s read a single word we’ve written and who supported us through these years.

To make it all work out, we need your help! Support our 10th Anniversary Show on Indiegogo and pick up exclusive merch and early bird tickets. The campaign starts next week and runs until 31 May 2026.

Watch this space, the lineup is coming soon!

Special thanks to our friends at Stichting Huaaargh and Cpunt for helping us to make this possible!
