Cologne, the German city, harbouring that famous little cathedral calls all dark creatures back to the Rheinpark grounds again. The Tanzbrunnen Cologne, which had gotten close to our hearts and characterized the Amphi Festival sustainably from 2006 till 2014 will be available again in 2016. “Home is where the heart is”, as the folks say.
