Groezrock was an annual music festival that took place in Meerhout, Belgium. It started as a small rock and pop festival with one stage and a few hundred people attending, but evolved into a large punk rock/hardcore punk festival, with attendances exceeding 30,000.
The festival had one stage until 2003, when it added a second stage called Back-to-Basics, which was reserved for more hardcore-oriented bands. Since 2006 the festival has taken place over multiple days, and grew to three stages in 2009 and four stages in 2012.
It was announced in October 2017{{Cite web|url=http://www.punktastic.com/news/groezrock-festival-post-update-on-2018-edition/|title=Groezrock Festival post update on 2018 edition - Punktastic|website=www.punktastic.com|language=en-GB|access-date=16 January 2018}} that the 2018 edition of Groezrock would not be taking place in the Spring, and would instead be an indoor festival in the autumn.
