Only two weeks left until one of the best festivals in Europe will celebrate its 30th edition: The HALDERN POP FESTIVAL will take place from August the 8th to August, the 10th. Slowly, our excitement grows, considering the once again pretty decent line-up and the fact, that this traditional pearl in Germany’s festival landscape turns 30 this year. Consequently, the passionate team behind the festival made up something special for this occasion: the first ever real HALDERN POP documentary, called: You’re the Swallow, We’re the Summer. In order to make this happen, you can contribute to the crowdfunding-project from now on via Startnext. Also, you can watch a neatly designed trailer for the campaign at the bottom.
Being one of the few festivals that’s consciously limiting its size with up to 7000 people attending, the HALDERN POP FESTIVAL stands out not only in terms of musical quality but also regarding its extraordinary, cozey atmosphere. That’s why we love it, and that’s why it’s sold out a little bit faster every year: HALDERN POP is all about Hope and Passion. Besides, with artists like VILLAGERS, METZ, OWEN PALLETT, LOCAL NATIVES, JULIA HOLTER, EFTERKLANG or JOHN GRANT, there are countless musical reasons, why we should see each other in two weeks, right? Let’s count the days, my friends.
