Knetzgau will host two major music events organized by Bayerischer Rundfunk in September: On Friday, September 10th, you can experience the Bayern 3 pop-up festival with star guest Michael Schulte. One day later, on Saturday, September 11th, Bayern 1 comes with the Summer of Music Festival. Milow can be heard as the star guest on this day. The special thing about both events: The tickets cannot be bought, they can only be won.
A carousel as a concert stage
The concept of the two music festivals should make it possible to enjoy a live concert together and still be protected from the corona virus. A carousel in the middle serves as a 360-degree stage, with 20 party areas set up around it. In each of these there is a “luxury glamping tent”, a luxuriously furnished tent in which festival visitors can even spend the night after the concert evening. Before that, however, they can watch the concerts from the front garden of the tent.
“In this way, each group can stay among themselves, celebrate safely from a distance and everyone can experience our stars from the front row,” says a press release from Bayern 1 about the festival. Each of these party areas offers space for five people, and tickets are given to groups of friends or families. In addition to the music program and the overnight tent, the organizers also provide free catering. “You can’t get more festival luxury!”, Was Bayern 1’s conclusion.
Two real superstars come to Knetzgau
Both radio stations have won big names in the music scene for the festival. Michael Schulte, who will be on stage in Knetzgau on September 10th, reached 4th place at the Eurovision Song Contest 2018 and brought Germany out of a permanent low in this competition. The following day, the Belgian singer Milow, an international superstar, comes to Knetzgau.
As usual for a festival, there is more than one music act to be heard on both evenings. Before Michael Schulte takes the stage at the Bayern 3 Pop-up Festival, DJ Tonic provides the party atmosphere with the latest hits in the early evening. After the star guest’s appearance, the Bayern 3 band will play into the night. Radio presenter and Instagramer Jacqueline Belle will host the evening.
Ticket raffle at the Main-Post
The following evening, “Morgenmann” Marcus Fahn will host the Bayern 1 Summer of Music at the same location. Here, too, there are more musicians to be heard than just the star guest. It starts with the Bayern 1 band, and DJ Jürgen Kaul concludes with music well into the night.
Tickets for both events can be won at the Main-Post, for example. If you want to take part in the raffle, you can send an email to [email protected] or write a postcard to: Main-Post GmbH, Berner Str. 2, 97084 Würzburg. “Pop-up Festival” or “Summer of Music” should be entered as the password.
