Wave Gotik Treffen 2009

Like every year, thousands of Gothic fans get together in Leipzig to listen to their favourite kinds of music. Of course, it's time for the annual Wave Gotik Treffen! The biggest Gothic festival of the world is coming up and it's surely gonna be as great as always. Like every year, many bands and artists will play all over Leipzig to show their great music. And of course, there will be other events like art shows and shopping markets, too. All kinds of music will be played like Gothic, EBM, Industrial, Ambient, Neofolk, Synth Pop and Goth-Metal.

From its beginning the Wave Gotik Treffen has been much more than a music festival: Its guests may switch back to the romantic atmosphere of ancient times at the medieval market place and a at pagan village, they will have authors reading, unusual theatre and cinematic performances will take place as well as a big role play. One of the largest halls on Agra-fairground (the wide place of the German agricultural fair) will turn into the biggest Gothic-warehouse of the world for four days. DJs from all over the world will let you celebrate unforgettable special parties until dawn. There will also be a large fetish party where entrance is only possible following a strict voluptuous dress code. A special highlight of this year’s WGT will be a mystical masked ball.



The inhabitants of Leipzig are familiar with the Treffen since 17 years - the gothic guests are welcome. The most fascinating thing during the Wave Gotik Treffen is the unique atmosphere that covers the whole city. Gothics from all over the world are celebrating their gathering peacefully and with relish, turning Leipzig into a diverse black. Once a year about twenty thousand Gothics are coming home: to the Wave Gotik Treffen.

So, be sure to be there to be able to enjoy the various kinds of music, the shows and the flair of the Wave Gotik Treffen!
