Festival under investigation as unauthorized license plates barred by police
In the heart of Hildesheim, Germany, the M'era Luna Festival took place over the weekend, attracting approximately 25,000 gothic fans. The festival, held at the airport grounds, showcased a diverse range of musical genres, including medieval rock, alternative, gothic, and electro, with around 40 bands and solo artists performing.
However, the peacefulness of the event was disrupted by a few incidents. Two instances involved the use of prohibited insignia, one by an individual wearing a T-shirt with a restricted symbol. Another individual made a prohibited statement during the festival. Isolated cases of fraud involving counterfeit tickets were also reported.
The police, who were kept busy throughout the festival, were alerted about these incidents on Saturday by festival-goers. Despite these disturbances, the M'era Luna Festival remained relatively peaceful overall, according to the police.
In response to these incidents, both the individuals using prohibited insignia are now under investigation. The police spokeswoman did not provide further details initially about the incidents, but she confirmed that one case of dangerous bodily harm occurred at the festival.
Despite these incidents, the M'era Luna Festival proved to be a successful event, with thousands of people enjoying the music and atmosphere. The festival organisers and the police are working together to ensure a safer and more enjoyable experience for all attendees in future editions.
