North Rhine-Westphalia: "Parookaville" festival attracts hundreds of thousands of fans

Numerous top DJs will turn the Lower Rhine province into a mecca for electronic music again this weekend. Weeze Airport will be transformed into the "Parookaville" festival until Sunday. After a Corona break, the organizers are happy about a record.

Weeze (dpa/lnw) - After a two-year break, fans of electronic music can look forward to a big festival in NRW again. From Friday afternoon on, Weeze Airport near the German-Dutch border will once again be called "Parookaville" and the festival will start into its sixth edition. Around 75,000 visitors will then populate the festival city on the site of the former military airport every day until Sunday.

The festival represents a city that comes alive once a year. In addition, the town hall of "Parookaville", a church and the post office will also be built this time. Instead of tickets, the guests buy visas.

According to the organizers, more than 300 artists will come to Weeze Airport for Germany's largest electronic music festival. It was already announced in advance that the event was sold out and that a record 225,000 visitors would be set.

The organizers announced that fans can celebrate the "return of love, madness and pure bliss" on more than ten stages over the three days of the show. The spectators can look forward to star DJs like Tiësto, Steve Aoki, Armin van Buuren, Robin Schulz, Felix Jaehn and Amelie Lens.
