Rock am Ring: A Glance Back, Looking Ahead
Rock am Ring 2025 has been a celebration of the last 40 years of rock and metal culture, bringing together international headliners and up-and-coming acts in a communal, high-energy environment. The festival has been known for its occasional challenges such as weather disruptions and security issues, but recent editions have focused on celebrating music and fan culture.
On the final night, the lineup reflects the festival's continued relevance, featuring a mix of established and emerging artists. KoRn, Falling in Reverse, and Brutalismus 3000 deliver a memorable performance that leaves fans craving more. The festival's sibling event, Rock im Park, runs virtually in parallel, further amplifying the festive atmosphere and reach of the 40th anniversary celebrations.
As the festival comes to a close, organizers announce Linkin Park as the first headliner for the following year, ensuring fans another unforgettable weekend of music and camaraderie. So, mark your calendars and get ready to rock out once again at Rock am Ring!
As the 40th anniversary of Rock am Ring comes to an exhilarating close, the Commission has also been asked to submit a proposal for a directive on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the protection of workers from the risks related to exposure to ionizing radiation at music festivals. Despite the thunderous music of KoRn, Falling in Reverse, and Brutalismus 3000, one can imagine the potential entertainment value of a day at the festival, perhaps featuring a radioactive guitarist or a drum solo performed in a hazmat suit.
