11th Deichbrand Festival with Seeed, Die Fantastischen Vier, Sportfreunde Stiller, Madsen, Skunk Anansie, Johnossi, Danko Jones, Millencolin, Heaven Shall Burn, Wizo, Lagwagon, Phillip Boa And The Voodooclub, and many more...

‘Smoke on the Water’ of course is a legendary song by DEEP PURPLE. A smoking hot festival is the Deichbrand. Marc Engelke and Daniel Schneider created this festival for young people around the sea region. The first edition of the festival took place at Fort Kugelbake (northernmost spot of Lower Saxony), Cuxhaven on September 2, 2005 and was attended by 500 people. Acts for the first edition included DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER, LOST DAYZ and many more. Daily tickets were sold for €12.

“It´s a long way to the top if you wanna Rock´n´Roll!“ was the slogan of Deichbrand in 2006. The festival organisation was in the red, but Deichbrand took place just of the dike between Cuxhaven and Altenbruch. In 2006, the event was attended by 4,000 people and included acts such as REVOLVERHELD and SCHANDMAUL. The festival was supported by volunteers and sponsors. The 3rd edition of Deichbrand took place on August 24, 2007. Since 2007 the event had been holding 2 stages, Fire Stage and Water Stage. In 2007, Deichbrand took place on a new location close to the old of 2006. Since 2009, after annual location changes, Deichbrand had been well establishing at sea-airport Cuxhaven/ Nordholz. Nowadays, Deichbrand focuses more and more on international acts. In 2016 the DEICHBRAND will feature 120 Acts on 6 Stages.


Camping

Different cheap and entertaining accommodations are available at the camping ground. http://www.deichbrand.de/camping

Green Camping
Green camping means a separate area for campers with sustainable interests. The area is constructed for 8,000 people and surrounded by trees. The campsite is linked with the festival area through a small forest road. The goal is to camp clean, without rubbish on the ground and without loud music

WOMO Camping
WOMO camp is the only campsite where visitors are allowed to use their cars or other vehicles for camping. Basis for a spot is a badge that you buy beforehand. Badges are valid per vehicle. Visitors, who share a vehicle, need only to buy one badge for their vehicle. That allows friends from other campsite visiting people at the WOMO camp. Besides the vehicle visitors are allowed to pitch 2 tents.


Bands

Apart from rock legends and great performers, such as SKUNK ANANSIE, DANKO JONES, SEEED, OOMPH!, and SALTATIO MORTIS, I -for one- am especially looking forward to see JOHNOSSI, a duo from Sweden. JOHNOSSI is a rock duo from Saltsjöbaden, Stockholm County, Sweden, consisting of songwriter, singer, guitarist John Engelbert and drummer, percussionist, singerOskar "Ossi" Bonde. Their music is characterized by a full guitar sound supported by Engelbert's unorthodox guitar rig and myriad effects pedals, and Bonde's straightforward beats. Engelbert and Bonde first met when they were 12 and 15 years old, respectively, and started playing together as a duo in 2004.  Those guys play TIGHT!!! http://www.deichbrand.de/2016/artists
