The festival will remain under the leadership of founder and CEO Chokri Mahassine, together with co-founders Marie Peremans, Patrick Breugelmans and Christiane Sluyter, supported by the trusted Pukkelpop team. Day-to-day operations will remain unchanged, with Pukkelpop’s headquarters in Leopoldsburg, Belgium.
