Wacken: Metal Valhalla at the gates of Hamburg
The Wacken wanderers 2017
-
Joris (26) from Holland: "Wacken is a totally crazy place that only exists for a few days every year - one single mega Metal Valhalla".
-
Eugenio (26) from Chile: "I'm from the biggest seaport in Chile – so to me Hamburg always feels a little bit like home".
-
Javier "Jedi" (32) from Spain: "I'm pretty well acquainted with the Elbe Tunnel, St. Pauli, the Town Hall and Hamburg's history. For example, I know you have more bridges than Venice".
-
José (38) & Carmen (32) from Chile: "For us, Wacken was always a legend – the fact that we're really here now is like a dream come true. We love Hamburg, particularly the Night Light on the Reeperbahn. You always meet nice metal-heads there".
-
Bert (25) from Belgium: "The best thing about Wacken is the sense of complete freedom. And the hot chili con carne, it's fantastic – and the price is right as well".
-
Marcus (31) from Canada: "This is my third time in Wacken. Just because you don't meet this many cool, warm-hearted people anywhere. Before we fly out again from Hamburg, we'll definitely go back to the Reeperbahn".
-
William (32) & Sabrina (26) from central Brazil: Lee (31) from China: "We're been planning our first time at Wacken for two years and now it's finally worked out. When we landed in Hamburg we even saw something of the city, for example the Reeperbahn and the Elbphilharmonie".
-
Rachel (30) & Lisa (28) from England: "It's much nicer and cleaner here than at other Festivals. Also, we thought Hamburg was super when we passed through, particularly the mix of old and new architecture - and all the sex shops. We'll definitely have to come again for a few days".
-
David (41) & Mayi (52) from Spain: "We've been married for two years now and this is our second Wacken together. We enjoy the music and like coming here".
