Following some uncertainty, it has now been confirmed that Maryland Deathfest will be returning on May 23-26, 2024. Organizers issued the following statement:

“Maryland Deathfest will return in 2024 for its 19th edition on May 23-26, 2024. We won’t be determining the venue format, booking/announcing bands, or going on sale with tickets for MDF XIX until sometime in the first half of 2023, but for now, go ahead and pencil in the dates. Moving forward, Maryland Deathfest will be the one and only festival we produce. The upcoming UK Deathfest in London next month will be the last of our events outside of Maryland.”
