POA keeps attracting more and more metal enthusiasts on the biker grounds ‘’Deadland’’ by booking a remarkable  lineup of brilliant and driven performers. It’s understandable why this festival has become a beloved tradition for metalheads around the world, given its picturesque setting in the German countryside and avid attendees.  Moreover, the camping areas offer visitors a convenient and comfortable location to unwind and refuel between performances.

All in all, anyone attending the Protzen Open Air metal music festival can expect an exhilarating and unique experience. Thanks again to Mario and Andrea Grimmer for their dedication and passion to organize this festival, as well as to all the volunteers and fans who always make this festival a great family get-together!
