At the turn of the year, Rammstein want to perform in front of 145,000 people on the Theresienwiese. The Tollwood Festival has already been planned for New Year’s Eve at the same place.
It’s supposed to be a huge event that’s supposed to take place on the Theresienwiese on New Year’s Eve 2022: the rock band Rammstein in front of 145,000 visitors. It is hard to imagine that a Tollwood Festival New Year’s Eve gala could take place in the same place at the same time. In a press release, the organizers of the Tollwood Festival are also somewhat surprised by the Rammstein project, which they learned about according to a press release from the newspaper. “We have not been informed of any of these plans so far. It is also not true that the organizing agency spoke to Tollwood – as reported.”
Tollwood Gala on New Year’s Eve: Tickets are already on sale
The winter version of the popular Munich festival with an arts and crafts market and cultural events has also been taking place on the Theresienwiese for the past 22 years from the end of November to December 31st. The conclusion is a New Year’s Eve gala, which is already planned for this year, the contracts for which have already been concluded and the tickets for which are already on sale. “We do not think it is possible to hold a Rammstein concert at the same time, with sound reinforcement and security measures designed for 145,000 people, and our New Year’s Eve party and the relatively quiet New Year’s Eve gala with circus theater productions and dancing to swing music,” the Tollwood statement said .
Rammstein are planning concerts in Munich’s Olympic Stadium
In this context, the Tollwood makers also point out that according to press information, four Rammstein concerts are already being planned for 2023 in the Munich Olympic Stadium. From the point of view of the festival organizers, it is now not only necessary to clarify what the turn of the year on the Theresienwiese 2022 will look like, but also what that means for the future. “We would like to have more planning security for the coming years.”
The Munich city council is expected to deal with the planned Rammstein concert at its meeting on Wednesday and discuss whether the safety and capacity of rescue services can be guaranteed on this already sensitive date. The interests of local residents must also be taken into account. In a broader sense, this could also include the Tollwood Festival.
