NEWS-ARCHIVE

Thank you very much!

The battle is over! More precisely, this year's edition of Back To Future has come to an end and we can move on to new goals.

But we won't do this without thanking you first for the smooth process this year! We can't say it often enough - the festival lives from and with you - from the helpers, from all the supporters from near and far. It is only because of you that this much-praised, family atmosphere comes about and that is exactly why we pull ourselves together year after year and start planning.

We only received positive feedback and overwhelming messages of thanks from our visitors. This shows that we did everything right. Representing all of this year's bands, KASSIERER-Wölfi was featured in the »MDR REPORT with "The BTF is one of the most beautiful festivals I know in Germany." the right words. Organizing a festival without a single point of criticism or notable incident makes us very proud. As our motto for 2017, we are writing Fisch's literal statement in large letters: "Glaubitz is like coming home!" - that is solely your merit!

The festival photos from DRACHENKIND and SCHEINWELTEN PHOTOGRAPHY will be coming in the next few days.

YOUR BACK TO FUTURE CREW

NOTES AND RULES

We are hard at work setting it up and would like to give you a few tips and rules of the game.

• The pre-sale is complete, from now on you can only purchase your tickets at the box office. Don't worry, all visitors come to the site. You can find the AK prices under »TICKETS
• You can find the RUNNING ORDER to print out »HERE
• Please note the traffic diversion due to the construction work on the B98 - you can find a map under »DIRECTIONS. We have also signposted the diversion.
• Parking and camping in the adjacent gardens on Sageritzer Straße is prohibited, we have set up day parking spaces
• This year the admission ticket office will be at the campsite, you will not be able to enter the campsite without a ticket
• Children under 14 years of age receive free entry when accompanied by parents
• Under 18 years? - then hand in the completed »MUTTIZETTEL« to us

Otherwise, this should be clear to everyone:

• There is no glass on the campsite because the green meadow is the home of the horses again after the festival, vehicle checks are carried out
• Weapons and illegal drugs have no place at the festival/campsite
• Give dogs and other pets this weekend in caring hands
• Waste avoidance is a top priority; if you don't dispose of it properly, we have to clean it up after you. We provide enough options for this!
• The instructions of our security staff must be followed
• Fascist ideas, music and culture are not possible!
• open fires are strictly prohibited due to the increased risk of fire
• Register sound, photo and film recordings with us!

Redirection, advance booking & replacement tape

There is a very important information about how to get there. Some people may have already noticed that the B98 federal road, which runs directly through Glaubitz, is being renovated in the area. That's why Glaubitz is closed to through traffic and there are extensive diversions. Please pay attention to the official signs and our additional information signs (BTF posters plus arrows etc.). If you are traveling from the south, i.e. via Riesa (A4, A14, B169), leave the federal road in the direction of Nünchritz and follow the signs through Nünchritz via Roda onto the B98. Access to the festival site and the campsite is ONLY possible from this side! At the Colmnitz/Roda intersection you reach the B98. Access is possible here for all festival participants, including people coming from the direction of Großenhain.

On Tuesday, July 12th, 2016 we will end advance sales at all known advance booking points and via punk.de! We will close the presale via our homepage on Monday. So I quickly got my feet wet and secured a cheap ticket.

MONA RELOADED from Bernau step in at short notice for THE FREEZE, who had to cancel their European tour. We hope that we will be spared from further band cancellations. We are already hard at work setting up the site... more information will follow! Your BTF crew

And another lottery

Don't forget: The presale ends in just over two weeks on Monday, July 11th. by 18 clock. Anyone who buys a weekend ticket from our homepage now will take part in a competition and have the opportunity to win a record by Slime, The Turbo A.C.'s, KOTZREIZ, Telekoma, Booze & Glory or Johnny Wolga!

We would like to say a big thank you to: PEOPLE LIKE YOU, CONCRETE JUNGLE and CONTRA RECORDS! You will be informed by us after paying for your ticket order and will receive the winning package at the checkout. So hold on and good luck! »LINK TO HAPPINESS

Running Order 2016 is available

So, we have done it, the »RUNNING ORDER for the BACK TO FUTURE 2016 stands. And exactly at that moment we received the message that THE FREEZE's tour was canceled. Damned! We'll see what else interesting things come up. For now, we'll keep one more beer cold at these temperatures.

At the same time, you can now also purchase day tickets in advance. We offer these exclusively at »PUNK.DE. Order your pre-sale tickets in good time, we will close the advance ticket office a few days before the festival starts.

Committee meeting

At the weekend the committee met and spent hours debating how we could make life difficult for you by increasing prices, diluting the beer with water, allowing everyone to visit the legendary swimming pool for just 5 minutes and only selling food in plastic packaging .

Well, maybe we've just fine-tuned the details and are actually leaving everything as it is. Firstly, the chatter won't take as long and secondly, the current concept has proven itself.

Interview in OX

The drum for BTF 2016 is constantly being drummed up. We didn't miss the opportunity to place a full-page ad in the current OX issue #126. In addition, the OX boss asked us a few interesting interview questions, but read for yourself.

The new edition is now available at any self-respecting kiosk.

New Plastic Bomb

The new Plastic Bomb fanzine has been available in newsagents for a few days now.

Although the overlaps in content in the issue - Discharge, Desertion, HAMMERHEAD, Disco//Oslo or Human waste - are kept within limits with our »LINE UP - Slime, Die Kassierer, The Casualties or Booze & Glory - but of course we love each other despite it! As always, we ran a full-page ad.

Line Up complete

Time runs and runs. In addition to the many logistical preparations, we have now also tied down the final line-up. We can happily announce that never more bands have entered the BTF stage than in 2016! This year we have placed the focus on the region with the opener bands. Yes, there are plenty of fresh and interesting combos in our part of the world too. We are presenting three of them at BTF 2016:

• FCKR
• THE PISSED ONES
• StrgZ

Next you get information about which band is playing on which day. We will then only offer day tickets at punk.de. The exact running order still has to wait. Stay curious and stop by here every now and then.

Great Newcomer

Which reggae / ska, punk band from Amsterdam / Boston had to cancel their appearance at the BACK TO FUTURE at short notice in both 2012 and 2015, but will definitely come this time because all good things come in threes? Right, we are looking forward to JAYA THE CAT !!

At the moment we are very busy with the application of our baby. Anyone who would like to help us distribute flyers and hang up posters can »WRITE TO US .
