WHERE: Adenau/Nürburgring, Germany
WHEN: from 07 to 09 June 2024
From 1985, the year of its debut, to today, Rock am Ring is an unmissable event for all lovers of rock and metal music. On the legendary Nürburgring car track, near the town of Adenau, in the Eifel, this event takes place which gathers hundreds of thousands of fans from all over the world.
A feature, probably unique, is the simultaneous organization with a sort of sister festival: Rock Im Park. Same dates and same artists. To change, in Rock Im Park, is only the location: the splendid Nuremberg! Often, the two events are considered a single event.
Every year, on the extraordinary stage of Rock Am Ring, the best bands of the world rock scene perform. From here, great names of international music such as U2, Aerosmith, Smashing Pumpkins, Metallica, Megadeth, Van Halen, Linkin Park, Iron Maiden have passed.
Unforgettable, the performance of Metallica, on 03 June 2006, with Hetfield & Co. who played all the songs of “Master Of puppets”, on the occasion of the twentieth anniversary. An absolutely unmissable show!
In 1989 and 1990, the festival was not organized due to the well-known German political vicissitudes following the fall of the Berlin Wall. Today, the festival is one of the most important, and followed, in Germany and Europe.
