Pukkelpop is an annual music festival which takes place near the city of Hasselt, Belgium in mid-to-late August. It is held within a large enclosure of fields and woodland?between a dual carriageway called Kempische Steenweg?in the village of Kiewit. It is the second largest music festival in the country after Rock Werchter. The 2011 edition was cancelled on August 19, 2011 after a severe storm the evening prior caused extensive damage to several stages, killing five people and injuring at least 140.
