In the heart of Erfurt, life pulsates in a very special way every summer. The cathedral square, surrounded by historical architecture and the impressive cathedral, provides the stage for a musical journey that is hard to beat in its diversity.

A hustle and bustle begins that will transform the square again in just a few hours. Also come on the

Massive trusses are raised and form the basic framework of the stage, which appears almost futuristic in the shadow of the imposing Erfurt Cathedral. Spotlights and spotlights are positioned, ready to later bathe the stage in a luminous spectacle. Line arrays hanging on the trusses and special loudspeaker systems promise a powerful sound that will soon fill the entire square again. There is space on the stage for monitors, microphone stands and an impressive drum platform. Amplifiers are carefully aligned and connected to the numerous cables that snake across the stage floor.

A central mixing console is set up from which sound engineers will later fine-tune the sound. After hours of intensive work, the cathedral square is ready for the next music spectacle.
