Blauerosen

It’s this time of year that we are counting the days backwards for the biggest festival in the world that focuses on the dark alternative music scene. With concerts happening all around the city, in different venues of different capacity and different architectural styles, Wave Gotik Treffen has never disappointed its dedicated fans who can been described as a black dressed pilgrimage to the Gothic culture. The city is dressed in black for 4 days each year and audiences are visiting from all over the world.

As we are waiting for the official programme to be announced here is what we know so far from the official websites of some of the 260 confirmed (so far) bands that will participate in 2016 Wave Gotik Treffen! Here is the list of the confirmed bands: http://www.wave-gotik-treffen.de/bands.php
