ROCKHARZ 2026 – Wednesday and Thursday

Friend.X aka Mr. Deep·
As some of you may know, we spent over a week at the Rock Metal & Day’z festival in Oschersleben before moving on to the ROCKHARZ festival on Tuesday 30 June. It's less than a 50 km trip, so we arrive early enough to check in and set up camp without any stress. Incidentally, the system of dedicated routes for the individual campgrounds, which has been in place for a while now, worked very well again.

Ulmich om Braand 2026 – the Report

Friend.X aka Mr. Deep·
On Friday 12 June, after work, I'm off to Ulmbach for the UOB – Ulmich om Braand – festival at the Schützenhaus. I park the car at the campground and in the day-parking area, then make my way – a beer’s-length walk – to the festival site. It’s not exactly easy going; it’s been raining heavily over the last few days, so we’re faced with conditions reminiscent of Wacken.

UOB 2026 first impressions

Friend.X aka Mr. Deep·
I have just returned from the UOB (Ulmich om Braand) festival, which is held somewhere between Frankfurt and Fulda in a fantastic, picturesque setting. The festival experienced Wacken-style weather conditions on Friday, followed by a fantastic sunny but not hot Saturday, which dried up all the mud as well as possible. Anyway, before I talk too much, here are my first impressions of this two-days festival.
