Which means that we´ll be transmitting the biggest metal spectacle 72 hours around the globe for those who stayed at home. Starting from Thursday, the 5th of August at 3 pm). You will be able to view the live shows from the Truemetal- & Blackmetalstage, Party & WET Stage, Jim Beam Stage and the beer garden. Interviews, Metal News and the weather forecast to sensational happenings in the bands backstage containers and the VIP area. For you we look behind the scenes, visit the camping area, accompany the artists to the stage and the Meet&Greet and you´ll see the latest video clips from the bands.

Apart from that there will be current interviews, CD presentations, draws, Specials, News and much more. 24 hours there will be many very interesting guests and artists from the festival in our tv-studio on site.
