One of the most famous rock festivals in all of Europe is Rock am See, which is visited by about twenty-five thousand music fans every year. All because among its participants there are always eminent headliners: at different times, Metallica, Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, Santana, The Cure, Rammstein, and Die Toten Hosen were invited to the festival. The event is scheduled for the end of August, the venue is the stage near Lake Constance, which means that spectators have a unique opportunity not only to enjoy the music but also to have a great time outdoors arranging a picnic and a campsite.
Before Rock am See, in the middle of August, another festival starts - this is about Seesucht dedicated to electronic music. It is also held on the shores of Lake Constance, presenting a wonderful combination of high-quality music and magnificent natural landscapes. Fans of techno, house, ambient, rave are all invited to the large-scale event in the world of electronic music. Famous headliners invited to participate in the festival (both local performers and foreign DJs) will not let anyone get bored.
