Wacken Bands

Alle Bands für das kommende W:O:A. Diese Liste umfasst eine Aufzählung von Bands, die am Wacken Open Air teilgenommen haben bzw. für die nächste Auflage angekündigt sind. As I Lay Dying.

Over the years, the size of Wacken Open Air has grown continuously, and now dozens of bands and tens of thousands of visitors flock to the festival.

Even though the organisers said in that 62, visitors were "the limit of what is possible", [16] changes were made to the structure of the festival grounds the following year by allocating a larger area to the "Party Stage".

In addition, tickets could no longer be purchased directly on the festival grounds to reduce the number of spontaneous or ticketless visitors.

In and , the festival had already sold out as a result of advance ticket sales; for W:O:A , tickets had even sold out by the end of The tickets for , too, sold out months in advance.

While the festival originally only lasted two days, the performances have been lasting from Thursday to Saturday, i.

Thursday became a "Night to Remember", with mainly "classical" Heavy Metal bands appearing, such as the Scorpions in On the actual Party Stage, younger and more modern bands play as a contrast to the "Night to Remember".

In addition, the event is accompanied by a rich complementary programme; in addition to a merchant area — obligatory for music festivals — a beer garden has been operating since , in which the Wacken Firefighters ' marching band opens the festival before its official start.

On Thursday in , the "Hellfest Stage" was initiated. Since , the so-called "Metal Train" has been travelling from Zurich to Wacken and back before and after the festival to bring fans to the Northern German village and provide a matching entertainment programme.

Bus tours from Scandinavian countries, especially Sweden , but also from Austria , are organised each year and used by several hundred fans.

The "W:O:A Soccercup" has been taking place annually since This football tournament, which started with nine teams and takes place on Wednesdays, has grown over the years and has been held in World Cup mode with 32 teams since a one-off event in featured 36 teams.

The international teams register in advance and are composed of festival visitors. For the tournament's 15th anniversary in , a band was featured and took part for the first time: Serum formed a team with several fans and were able to win the tournament.

Although it is meant to be a fun tournament, in which creative outfits and names take precedence over athletic performance, the award ceremony after the tournament has been held on one of the stages since and prizes can be won.

In , the "Full Metal Church" took place in Wacken for the first time. Marking the local church's th anniversary, the team, together with the parish, organised a concert by the band Faun , which was framed by two readings and sermons by " Volxbibel " author Martin Dreyer.

Both the concert and the services were completely overcrowded by festival visitors. The festival is one of the Metal scene's highlights of the year. Nowadays, about a third of the visitors, some of whom arrive quite some time before the official start of the festival, and the majority of the bands come from abroad.

According to the organisers, saw visitors from more than 80 nations attending the festival. The number of participants increased to 75, in and included 65, paying guests.

As is common with festivals of this size, Wacken Open Air received criticism for its hygienic conditions, prices, security personnel, as well as for the overcrowding and commercial orientation of the event.

These points of criticism were addressed by making further substantial investments in the festival's fixed and mobile infrastructure.

In , the organisers also contributed 1,, Euros to the expansion of Wacken's local outdoor swimming pool in order to make the festival even more attractive to the residents and visitors of the town.

Since , the festival has been running an online radio station called Wacken Radio , which broadcasts Metal music around the clock.

It is being produced in cooperation with RauteMusik as of February For the 23rd edition of Wacken Open Air, the sale of an "X-Mas Package" started on Monday, 8 August , shortly after the end of that year's festival, and was sold out within 45 minutes.

The event sold out ten times in a row between and In the minutes before the start of the pre-sale, the pages were no longer accessible; after that, data traffic had to be limited by wait lists.

Prices for the festival have risen and are currently at a level similar to other major Rock festivals, such as Rock am Ring and Hurricane Festival.

After several years of success in which the festival sold out within hours, the first 60, tickets for the festival were sold in mid By the end of April , the festival was almost sold out except for a few remaining tickets.

The price for the festival ticket was Euros, but there was no fee for early arrival campers, who often set up their elaborately designed accommodations before the festival begins — partly to get the best spots near the festival grounds.

In addition, all toilets and showers were free in The festival sold out within a few days each in — However, the last tickets for the festival were sold after days, a mere 2 months before the start of the festival, even though only 10, tickets remained after the first day of sales.

This was a matter of speculation at first, and reasons such as the changed security situation or the price development were taken into account.

On 5 April Thomas Hess, the festival's longtime production and former security director, passed away. He had joined festival management in as a former tour manager of Böhse Onkelz and was considered one of the most important leading figures for the festival, along with the remaining founders and the Trede family, who organise the camping areas and the camping supervisors as subcontractors.

He made a significant contribution to the W:O:A being so well organised, peaceful and successful. Wacken Open Air was named the best major festival at the European Festival Awards and best festival at the Helga!

On 16 April , it was announced to that the edition of the festival would be cancelled because of the ongoing COVID pandemic. The organisers of Wacken Open Air founded Stone Castle Rockpromotions in in order to organise the first festival.

The name is derived from the direct translation of "Steinburg" from the district of Steinburg , to which Wacken belongs.

Up until , the headquarters were located in Dörpstedt Schleswig-Flensburg district and then moved to Wacken. The company owns the label Wacken Records and the mailorder Metaltix, among others.

A daily festival newspaper has been available since , reporting on what's happening on the festival grounds.

In , the online radio station RauteMusik took over production of the official Wacken radio. Wacken Radio has its own container on the festival grounds every year, where it reports live.

Up until a few years ago, Wacken's official town signs were either replaced by plastic signs spelling Heavy Metal Town during W:O:A or bolted more tightly because they were often stolen as souvenirs.

Some shops are now selling black cotton bags with the Wacken town sign on one side and the words "This town sign I may keep" on the other.

An action for exceeding the maximum noise limit, brought before the Administrative Court of Schleswig by residents of Wacken, ended in January with an out-of-court settlement.

The site covers more than hectares , which are divided by more than 45 kilometres of fence. The inner area, including the main stage, has a size of 43, square metres.

More than 1, toilets and almost showers are available for the 75, paying attendees. Stage construction and dismantling usually take 7 days and 5 days respectively.

For this, 75 trucks of stage equipment 1, tons , 10 trucks of sound equipment and 27 trucks of lighting equipment are used. Since , the electric output has amounted to 12 megawatts, roughly matching the needs of a small town counting 70, inhabitants.

At the same time, , Euros worth of drains were installed in front of the stages in order to improve the drainage of water masses during heavy rains. A total of approximately 5, employees work for the festival, including 1, security staff members, cleaners, 70 construction and dismantling assistants, as well as police officers, firefighters, paramedics, and six emergency doctors.

In , a beer pipeline measuring one kilometer to supply ten dispensing systems was used for the first time. At full capacity, this construction allowed for 10, litres of beer to be tapped within the hour.

Wacken Open Air now boasts eight stages for musicians and accompanying entertainment. The most important ones are the Faster and the Harder Stage, which are designed as connected twin stages and have a shared sound and lighting system.

All three stages are also equipped with video walls to allow visibility of the performers even from remote positions.

After Wacken , visitors were encouraged to suggest new names. From these suggestions, the best ideas were to be put up to a vote in a survey. Two more twin stages, the W.

The Metal Battle takes place on these stages on Wednesday and Thursday, followed by regular band appearances on the days after.

While the large stages and tent stages are open to all genres, the remaining stages are dedicated to specific themes.

The Wackinger Stage is located in the medieval area of the festival and is played primarily by bands from Folk, Pagan and Medieval genres, while the Wasteland Stage, which was established in , is geared towards music with an apocalyptic touch.

The Beergarden Stage is modelled after typical folk festival stages, but also accommodates permanent Wacken guests such as the Wacken Firefighters and Mambo Kurt.

Wacken Open Air's event area is divided into several structurally separated sections. Since , only one major security check is performed upon entering the grounds, after that, only the festival wristbands are checked.

Special features of the W:O:A include the Wackinger area, which resembles a medieval market and contains specialty food and beverage stalls as well as the Wackinger Stage, where matching music is played.

Various walking acts also entertain the audience. This area borders on the Wasteland designed by the Wasteland Warriors , where a post-apocalyptic world and stage Wastelandstage styled in homage to the Mad Max -franchise is set up.

The area in front of the main stages comprises both the Bavarian beer garden and a large shopping mile called Metal Markt.

The most important stages, the focal point of the festival, are located in the so-called Infield, which can be reached only via the Center.

In addition to these stages, it also hosts food and beverage stalls. As Wacken Open Air only sells 3-day tickets, the majority of visitors spend the entire festival on-site.

As a result, most of the more than hectares of the festival site are designated camping areas. Camping opens on Monday and has been included in the ticket price since However, in the years before, an extra fee was charged for arrival before Wednesday.

The campsite is equipped with showers, flushing toilets, portable toilets , drinking fountains , small supermarkets, food stalls, and information boards, and is continuously patrolled by the police, fire brigade, and security services.

A garbage collection service collects full garbage bags on the premises. For orientation, the individual sites called Campgrounds are marked with code letters.

Campgrounds A and B are reserved for visitors arriving without a car, while Campgrounds Y and R are intended for campers and other heavy-duty vehicles.

Y offers the possibility to rent entire caravans, tents or to get a power supply for your own caravan. At Campground U, large groups of 50 people or more can reserve a larger area free of charge.

A festival of this size needs capable medical services, which here are called the Wacken Rescue Squad. Every year, hundreds of helpers from various relief organisations from all over Germany arrive before the festival to prepare the medical camp and care for people in need during the event.

The medical service is managed by the local DRK association in Kaltenkirchen. The visiting and local relief organisations provide vehicles and material during the course of the festival.

These include ambulances and radios for communication in particular. Due to the road conditions, quads and foot patrols are often used in Wacken, especially in the vicinity of the medical centre.

In addition to the medical service, which counts approx. In , around 3, people received medical care from approximately paramedics.

Despite the size of the festival, no serious security problems have been encountered so far. Disputes among visitors are rare, and in , a total of 20 reports of bodily injury was filed.

In , police were able to arrest three gangs of thieves. W:O:A Metal Battle is an international band contest first held in During Metal Battle, newcomer bands compete against each other in national qualifiers and finals; the winner of each country then competes against the other finalists in the grand final at Wacken Open Air.

An international jury selects the competition's best bands. In earlier years, winners of the competition were offered a record deal, whereas nowadays, the five best bands receive cash or material prices.

The Wacken Foundation was founded in by the festival's organisers and serves as a charitable foundation. Its objective is to support young bands from the Heavy Metal genre.

Sponsorship is granted to specific projects such as the production of a CD or the realisation of a tour. In addition, the Wacken Foundation provides information about its projects at many European festivals each summer.

This was facilitated by jersey sponsors Heaven Shall Burn , whose logo has been moved to the jersey's sleeve for this cause.

Part of the proceeds from the jersey's sale is donated to the foundation. One week after the festival ended, young people from all over Germany were invited to write and play their own songs under the guidance of professional musicians.

They were accommodated in the so-called Kuhle, the site of the first Wacken Open Air. The organisers regularly call for blood donations with the whole festival team.

Blood is donated at the Itzehoe Clinic and the entire wing is decorated in W:O:A style, while Heavy Metal is blasted through the speakers.

In , 2, visitors took this opportunity. The festival works with the organisers of the so-called Wattolümpiade "mudflat Olympics" in Brunsbüttel to promote the slogan Stark gegen Krebs "Strong against cancer".

The festival's team helps out with logistics for the event. In addition to the festival itself, there are numerous other events planned and carried out by the organisers.

A wide range of merchandising has also been developed over the years. It was written by satirist Till Burgwächter in collaboration with comic artist Jan Oidium and is also available as an audio book comprising three CDs.

The publication of a Metal cookbook shows how far merchandising has come. However, the mounting range of merchandising has led to growing criticism, as some consider it to be purely profit-oriented.

The increasing coverage of the festival, especially in the wake of the documentary Full Metal Village , is perceived by the traditional Metal scene as "selling out".

In , Wacken Premium Pilsner was offered as the festival's "own" beer for the first time. It was produced in the Bavarian brewery Maximiliansbrauerei in Chieming.

At W:O:A and , the beer was available as well, this time produced in 0. The large number of glass shards later forced the organisers to switch to 0.

Additionally, the festival features the sentence "Louder Than Hell" in its advertising. Der Stream wird von MagentaMusik und der Telekom zur Verfügung gestellt und ist sowohl auf der Website als auch in der passenden App abrufbar.
