The 35th edition of the Wacken Open Air heavy-metal festival in Schleswig-Holstein has sold out all 85,000 tickets, with prices set at 349 euros this summer. This follows the previous year’s sell-out by late September 2024. Festival founder Thomas Jensen expressed happiness about the event’s success and noted that preparations are underway, including the installation of a large bull’s head sculpture. The festival, known as one of the largest heavy-metal events globally, features major acts such as Judas Priest, Def Leppard, and others.
