The Open R Festival has established itself as a popular attraction for music fans. In Germany, every second person occasionally attends a music event, and with such a top-class line-up, the popularity in Uelzen is likely to be great. Music festivals are particularly popular in the summer months, meaning a lively, music-loving crowd can be expected. The statistics also show this: in 2023, 28 million people in Germany said they were interested in rock and pop concerts, with young adults in particular being particularly popular. Statista has published figures on this.

An event for young and old

The festival will offer something for everyone. Children up to 8 years of age have free entry, while visitors aged 16 and over can visit the Almased Arena unaccompanied. Younger visitors, on the other hand, require a “mother table” and an accompanying adult. Tickets are available at the city and tourist information center in the town hall, at the Allgemeine Zeitung and at all known ticket offices. Access is particularly affordable for the youngest festival visitors, which makes the event even more attractive.
