In recent years, when arriving in Bad Dobaran on Thursday afternoon, we would usually park the car near the Drümpel Parkplatz and take the short walk to the Zappa statue.
It's the best place to realise that one has entered the Zappa universe as there will be other music freaks checking out the statue, and it's close to the place where those who have arrived by train will get on the Molli (in the Mollistrasse) to go to the festival ground.
Up until a few years ago, upon our arrival, we would also visit the expo at the Zappanale office at the market place (Am Markt). Unfortunately, this space is no longer available but the good news is that the expo has moved to the festival ground.
And we don't want to loose too much time as this year's pre-party has evolved into an entire day of music.
The pre-party will take place on the festival ground, at the "Arf Stage".
Free entrance for those who have a festival ticket !
For those who want to attend but don't have a festival ticket, a contribution of 10 euro will be asked.
14h00 = opening or the pre-party
14h00 - Superthousand
16h00 - Smalltape
18h00 - Blanck Zappath
20h00 - Icarus Burns
And not at the festival ground, but scheduled to appear at the Zappateers tent at the camping ground:
22h00 - Chato Segerer
Wolfhard Kutz, the main man behind the festival, added that Zappanale is the only festival that can take place at the Rennbahn this year.
Restrictions and even bans have been imposed on all festivals, but fortunately an exception was made for Zappanale because it has been running for so long.
I'm glad that this exception was made and I'm already looking forward to all of the familiar (and new) faces. And ready to discover some new music.
