In Dong We Trust
|
It's in the cosy middle of nowhere of the Dong hill in which the Dong Open Air of Neukirchen-Vluyn will be celebrating their tenth year in underground and establishment of the international metal scene. The fascinating scenery of the Ruhrgebiet combined with the seemingly neverending miles of the lower Rhine Valley make an amazing location for a festival of metal, rock and folk. Thrifty prices and an excellent program add to the festivals unique superbness. Once a year up to 2,000 fans celebrate the music of a fine selection from hundreds of international applications, the successful headliner shows and a familial atmosphere in lofty heights. Be part of the horde who has been allowing the great festival to sell out every year since 2005. And even more important: Welcome to the Dong Hill!

The most important information for the festival at a glance
Hey Rockers!
The Dong is only a few days away, so we decided to get you in the mood with all the important info you need to know:
Trash: No, we don’t expect you to bring your mom to clean up the mess you left behind, but please make sure you collect your garbage in the trash bags, bins and containers we supply. The Dong Hill is a landscape protection area and getting rid of your bagged trash is cheaper than collecting it from the bushes afterwards.
Tickets: If you lost your eTicket and would like us to resend it, please get in touch with benjamin.munschongopenair.de Do it now. Be assured that we will neither have nor take the time next week since we are certainly going to be busy to doing things to make sure your festival weekend rocks!
How to get there: Parking lots, shuttle service, box office (wrist band pick-up) and beer bar will be open from 9 a.m. If you show up any earlier than this, we’ll have to kick you out. Please make sure you follow staff instruction and only park where you are allowed to.
Food & Beverages: Of course a cold beer is 1,50€ - the same procedure as every year. This applies to the soft drinks as well. We will also stock up on whiskey-coke long drinks and “Poch”, a fruity cocktail we deemed suitable for our audience.
If you decide to bring large quantities of beverages yourself, please be aware that these will not be transported up the hill in the shuttle bus. Half of the Dong budget comes from beverage sales, so every keg, every can and every bottle you decide to carry up that hill hurts the festival.
Of course the famous French fries will be sold at the almost traditional fast food booth. There will be a pizza booth as well. As usually, the prices are going to be at the regular festival level or below.
Your safety: Spiked studs on belts, wristbands, anything are not allowed. Weapons and replicas, noisemakers such as megaphones and vuvuzelas are forbidden as well. Open fire, whether it’s a barbecue or torches, is prohibited – especially considering the current weather conditions. Gas cookers are perfectly fine with us. Follow our staff’s and local authorities’s instructions!
Program: We don’t have anything new to announce. Despite singer Sakis’s broken leg, Rotting Christ will perform at the DOA 2010. Of course this and other things are subject to change. Go to the rockzoom.de booth to find out about the headliners’ signing sessions!
Ten years. We can hardly believe it. We’ll rock it!
Your Dong Team
