Smooth arrival to the Wacken Festival: Fans ready for the party of the year!

Von Kl Redaktion

In the small community of Wacken in Schleswig-Holstein, which usually only counts 2,000 inhabitants, everything is currently about the Wacken Open Air, one of the largest heavy metal festivals worldwide. The event will be held for the 33rd time this year and attracts around 85,000 fans from all over the world every year.

learned from difficult weather conditions

In the run -up to the festival, which starts on Wednesday and lasts until August 3, the organizers have taken extensive precautions to facilitate the journey of visitors. After the difficulties caused by considerable rain in the previous year, the organizers invested several hundred thousand euros to strengthen the festival site with gravel paths from recycled material. Organizer Thomas Jensen confidently commented on the implementation of these measures.

smooth journey as a target

The arrival to the Wacken Festival is easy, according to the organizers. Today around 4,000 vehicles are already on the festival site, and the number of cars could increase to up to 10,000. Jensen confirmed that the flow of traffic was good and the processes with the access passes worked smoothly. "We want to celebrate the party of the year," he said, emphasizing the efforts of the entire community so that everyone can reach their campsite as soon as possible.

A look back at the development of the festival

Since the modest beginnings in 1990, when only 800 people visited the festival, the Wacken Open Air has developed into an undisputed highlight of the festival season. The increasing popularity is also reflected in the rapid sale of the tickets: the 85,000 tickets for this year's festival were out of print within four and a half hours. One reason for the rush is the well -known bands that occur, including the Scorpions, Korn and Amon Amarth.

emphasis on the community and security

The organizers emphasize that the festival is not only a musical event, but also embodies a strong community spirit. Jensen wants to make sure that all visitors feel good and have the opportunity to enjoy an unforgettable experience. With the positive development of the journey and the strength of the community, the organizers show how important the Wacken Open Air is for the heavy metal culture.

While the first festival goers have already settled in Wacken, it remains to be seen how the event will go this year. However, the well thought -out measures and the committed support of the community give optimistic hope for another successful Wacken Open Air.
