Festival

The Party.San Metal Open Air will take place for the 28. time at Obermehler airfield near Schlotheim in 2024. The airfield will be closed to air traffic during the event. The Party.San Metal Open Air will take place from Thursday 08.08.2024 to Saturday 10.08.2024.

Stages

The Party.San Metal Open Air offers its guests two stages. Both the main stage and the tent stage will be open from Thursday (up to and including Saturday). The tent stage will host the daily after-show party with DJs from radio stations.

Toilets / Showers / Supply

There will be sufficient free mobile and water toilets available. These are located on the campsite and in the festival infield area. The toilets will be cleaned several times a day during the festival to ensure maximum cleanliness for our guests. As last year, there will be two sanitary facilities with flush toilets and showers. These are also clearly visible and marked by flags on the camping areas. The flat-rate ticket for the use of the toilets and showers will also be available in 2024. You can purchase this ticket directly at the service points.

Water taps and hand washing facilities will of course be available on the camping site near the service points.

Between the festival entrance (gate entrance) and the backstage entrance there will be a beer garden in addition to the well-known breakfast tent, which will be open from Wednesday evening. The party tent will be open from Wednesday, 07.08.2024, 20:00 and offers our guests the obligatory welcome party as well as selected stands (food & drinks). From Thursday, 08.08.2024 to ###FESTIVALCAMPUNTIL###, the area will be opened and closed again according to the advertised opening times (current times will be announced in the handout, which we will hand out to each guest after arrival). The party tent will be used for the daily after-show party after Infields closes and will only close in the early hours of the morning (see handout for times).
