High summer for a certain part of the population has a different meaning, for this is the month when an airfield in Hildesheim, Germany will be the scenery for the next incarnation of the renowned M’era Luna festival. In 2011 the tradition continues and 
oddly dressed dark people from almost every corner of Europe and beyond get packed and travel long distances when the mentioned airfield is kind of rebuild to become the festival’s home for two days. Within those days a spectacle second to none is happening, presenting live bands of a wide range of genres, from electronic to rock, medieval to pop and everything else that puts a smile of delight on the alternative people’s hearts and faces.
Bands to participate in this dark celebration in 2011 will be WITHIN TEMPTATION, surely one of the performances to look forward to, most likely including material from their recently released new album. The next crowd pleaser to mention would be British Synth pop sensation HURTS who’ve turned quite some heads with such hits as ‘Wonderful Life’ or ‘Stay’ and will sure as hell captivate the entire audience in attendance. VNV NATION Have confirmed their attendance just as well, always having been a guarantor for a memorable live show, just as the Finnish cello metal heads of APOCALYPTICA. One can be curious already which new positions they’re now able to play their tools in. That of course can be just a little breakdown of the festival’s diversified program that apart from the musical has a shopping mile to offer, as well as readings and a fashion show.
