The Open Doors Festival celebrates 25th anniversary

An entire city celebrates the love of music

When an entire city becomes an open air stage and many thousands of people happily celebrate music for three days, it's OPEN DOORS FESTIVAL in Neu-Isenburg again. 2017 is a very special year for the popular festival, which celebrates its 25th anniversary. Of course, there has to be a lot to celebrate this special birthday. Included are many familiar faces, but of course again many exciting and talented newcomers.

The Festival

If you had asked the organizers 25 years ago where they would see their music festival in a quarter of a century, probably none of them would have dared to say that OPEN DOORS would one day be the biggest festival in the city and a popular festival size in the whole Rhine-Main region in the field of "umsonst & outdoors". Along the Frankfurter Straße, visitors to the festival experience a very special open air experience year after year, which perfectly manages the balancing act between outdoor concert, party and family festival. Numerous market stalls, promotion stands, food trucks and beer islands ensure, in addition to the musical performances, that a good mood quickly arises here.

The Program

Over the course of the three days of the festival, an extremely colorful program will be offered on various stages around the city. From small, intimate performances to big stage shows, from rock and pop to jazz, Irish folk, Schlager and party music, there really is something for all tastes and ages. Alongside well-known festival favourites such as Paddy goes to Holyhead, Roy Hammer & the Pralin&eacute;es, Mallet, the Trenkwaldern, The Gypsys or Tasha <.x>Ampersand</x> Band, the OPEN DOORS FESTIVAL will once again offer a stage to quite a few newcomers in its anniversary year, including April Art, Alaska Pirate or The Aesthetic Voyager.

It is to the credit of the makers of this festival that they do not open their program to only one particular genre of music and always give the newcomers a chance to prove themselves in front of a large audience. This ensures that every visitor really gets their money's worth musically here and that the common love of music takes centre stage.

More than just music

Of course, the OPEN DOORS FESTIVAL has even more to offer than lots of good music. So there are of course also quite a few stalls and food trucks with delicacies from all over the world. No matter if you like to eat meat or vegan food, if you have any intolerances or if you like to taste different national cuisines - you won't have to go home hungry from the festival. In addition to the culinary offer, the festival also offers a great charity action and a children's zone presented by the family portal RheinMain4Family.

Another highlight will celebrate its premiere in 2017: together with LINDE MATERIAL HANDLING, an E-KARTBAHN will be set up on the Rosenauplatz for the pure racing experience between the musical acts. The electric karts are absolutely silent and have more power than classic petrol cars. Sign up now and secure 10 minutes of race feeling. Unter "E-KARTBAHN" einfach bei Eventbrite registrieren. All proceeds benefit the Children's Charity Foundation
