| 5. Night of the Prog Festival |
|
Next to the music and bands that have taken part at the festival editions, the main reason for the success is simply the location! The UNESCO world heritage Loreley is one of the most outstanding open air amphitheaters in Europe. High above the river Rhine, the visitors are overwhelmed by the beautiful surrounding area. By this outstanding ambiente we continue to establish the festival as the "Mekka of Progressive Rock". The hightlights of the past 3 years have been for sure the appearances of Fish, ASIA, Jethro Tull, Roger Hodgson, Steve Hackett, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze - to name a few. The tradition to supply a stage for young and emerging artists is one of our major tasks. To give them the chance to play in front of thousands of people will definitely help to create a career. On September 03rd and 04th 2010 the V. NOTP Festival will take place for its anniversary fifth time.
