Nürburg (dpa) - In view of the current Corona situation, there is uncertainty when planning the major summer festivals.
We would have to wait for the concrete developments, say eventimpresents and Live Nation, the organizers of “Rock am Ring” (Nürburgring) and “Rock im Park” (Nuremberg).
"Therefore, a statement about what happened at a later point in time is only possible."
After the corona-related cancellation last year, this year's edition of the twin festival is scheduled to take place on the second weekend in June.
Performances by bands like Green Day or Volbeat have been postponed from 2020 to this year.
"There are still many question marks," says Stephan Thanscheidt from the organizer FKP Scorpio.
"We also have to wait and see how the number of infections and the availability of vaccines develop."
The organizer is organizing the “Hurricane” (Scheeßel / Lower Saxony) and the “Southside” (Neuhausen ob Eck / Baden-Württemberg), which are planned for June 18-20.
"There is currently great uncertainty in the industry," says the President of the Federal Association of the Concert and Event Industry, Jens Michow.
"For the summer festivals we will need decisions by mid-March at the latest about the form in which they can take place, because they need a minimum amount of time to prepare."
