Current information about the festival start
We have been keeping an eye on the current news situation since this morning and are in close contact with the emergency services, fire brigade, fire protection and rescue services.
The forest fire in Gösselsdorf (near Saalfeld) is far away from the festival site - there are no restrictions on travelling to the festival so far.
No concert performances are jeopardised and the festival can go ahead as planned.
However, due to the official disaster alert, the ‘ban on open fires, barbecues and heating food with gas cookers of any kind’ remains in place.
Our security team at the tent and camping sites is informed and can help at any time.
Speaking of the traffic situation: Concerts in the Heinepark can sometimes run late - but there are no additional regional trains. The regular timetable applies.
For the night buses, we offer a journey time search of the regional bus connections KomBus via our festival app.
