PRIVATE FUNCTION (AUS)
         What PRIVATE FUNCTION achieved at Back To Future 2023 is rare. The band played in the tent at a really late hour on Friday night. Everyone, really everyone, who was able to witness the Australians' performance had nothing else to do the next day than to shout the following or similar sentences around the ears of all those who had unfortunately already said good night to the Sandman: “You missed something! There was another band in the tent and they blew everything away!” - “Have you seen PRIVATE FUNCTION yet? Craziness!!!" - “There were Berserkers in the tent? I have no idea what that was, but it was crazy!” or “I have a new favorite band!”. There are even said to be quite a few people who subsequently claim to have seen the band just to avoid being exposed to the scorn and ridicule of their enlightened circle of friends.
Well, what can we say, we have simply pulled out all the stops: PRIVATE FUNCTION from Down Under are coming back to Back To Future 2025!

MÄD LŸNX (GER)
         Lynx alert at the riding arena! Since 2020, the Berlin-based MÄD LŸNX have been roaming the clubs of the country. It's about time for a visit to us! Punk meets hard rock, located somewhere between Motörhead, Runaways, Joan Jett and Misfits. In the past, some of the band's members could be seen in front of our stage pit as die-hard fans for years, now the MÄD LŸNX will preach rock 'n' roll to us from the stage pulpit! It's going to be great!

COCKNEY REJECTS (UK)
         “Where the hell is Glaubitz, I just wanna know, I heard so much about this place and now I wanna play the hits!”.
Based on one of the greatest songs by the kings of Oi! Punk! Ok, the COCKNEY REJECTS were already here in 2019! Band leader Stinky Turner and his band wanted to say “That’s it!” some time ago. say, hang up the microphone, guitars and boxing gloves - but far from it: with none other than the Back To Future proven Olga from the TOY DOLLS and people from ARGY BARGY and LAST RESORT in the band line up there is now a Who Is Who of British working class music history is back on stage. Live, the quartet with this line-up is an absolute power, look forward to “I’m Not A Fool”, “Oi! Oi! Oi!”, “Police Car” and of course “Where the hell is Babylon”!

UPRIGHT CITIZENS (GER)
     UPRIGHT CITIZENS at BACK TO FUTURE!
How do you describe a band that enjoys such a status without using the overused term "legend"? KNOCHENFABRIK, the first confirmed act, is now followed by an undisputed classic of the European hardcore punk scene. With red cheeks on our faces, we proudly pat ourselves on the back and are happy to present you one of the very few shows of the band that was founded in Bottrop back in the day.
What all your favorite bands later adapted, UPRIGHT CITIZENS started back in the 80s. May we give them an epic welcome!

KNOCHENFABRIK (GER)
     Fasten your seatbelts, from now on you will find band confirmations, completion and status reports about BACK TO FUTURE little by little and as usual!
To start with, we'll put our foot on the pedal and dutifully keep a promise, because unfortunately KNOCHENFABRIK fell through this year due to scheduling conflicts - but 2025 will go ahead and one of our and your absolute dream bands will be back on the Glaubitz field! "What on earth happened?" - Yes, what did you think, the confirmation is there, KNOFA here, blackout there, band confirmation number one is coming from Cologne!

And tomorrow there will finally be the first band announcement!

A quick update on the early bird ticket sales
The 500 tickets were ordered almost overnight, sales started on Friday evening and everything was sold out on Saturday morning at 9:57 a.m. That gives us hope! Thank you for your trust! Our ticket fairy Amanda will get in touch with you in the next few days.
Now we're going into the normal pre-sale phase, like last year, at €99.00. We're naturally hoping for similar support so that we can be sure of further planning for BTF 2025.

GLAUBITZ CALLING… again!
The early bird tickets for the BACK TO FUTURE FESTIVAL 2025 can now be ordered via the ticket link on our website.
As usual, we have limited this cost-effective early bird variant to 500 pieces and experience has shown that in recent years it has not taken long before we can report that it is “sold out”. That's why it's better to take this literally: The early bird catches the worm!
We are pleased that we can offer you this pre-sale level again for the same price and do not have to increase it: The early bird ticket is available for EUR 85.00 (plus EUR 2 shipping per order) with no hidden additional costs!
We're currently tinkering and tinkering with a line up that's already been put together, a few highlights are already in the bag, we're still in negotiations with others - we'll announce the first bands in the coming weeks.
And now: Go For It!

A + P - LIVE @ BACK TO FUTURE LP
 Who remembers A+P's bombastic performance at BACK TO FUTURE 2022? Great atmosphere in the tent, you could see that the band could hardly believe what was happening. The performance was recorded and has just been released on vinyl by MAD BUTCHER RECORDS as “Live @ Back To Future”. The text written by the band for the release reads wonderfully:
“... The band is tense and focused. Only a few minutes left until the first performance at a festival in front of several thousand people. The very first A+P gig in the East. Even during the sound check, the fans rush to the stage barrier. They have waited a long time for this moment. Just like us!
Then the tent explodes - despite tropical temperatures. It is great fun to celebrate our debut at “Back to Future” with the people! The atmosphere is brilliant - the sound too. To our great surprise, the audience is absolutely stuck to the lyrics. Everyone is involved in “Bombs on Landsberg”...”
