Press release
Outstanding Season ahead for Waldbühne Berlin
Waldbühne Berlin awaiting record-breaking season in 2011 / Fifteen major
events booked so far / Ranging from rock and pop to classical music, dance
and comedy.
Berlin, April 19th 2011. This summer Berlin's Waldbühne is in for a season
of unprecedented ticket sales. At present, the schedule already lists 15
major events. Europe's finest amphitheatre has been flourishing ever since
it was taken over by CTS EVENTIM AG in early 2009. Similar to last year's
season the repertoire's focus is again set on rock and pop shows as well as
on classical music.
For rock and pop fans the 2011 open-air season has lots of high-class acts
to offer, such as The Kings of Leon (whose only concert in Germany the
Waldbühne will be hosting on June 14th 2011), The Eagles (June 23rd 2011),
Joe Cocker (August 13th 2011), Peter Maffay (May 28th 2011), and many more.
Over the years, the Waldbühne has also become a home of classical music -
providing a spectacular backdrop to the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra's
traditional concert season finale. This summer there will be five evenings
of 'Waldbühne Meets Classics', starting with the celebrated violinist David
Garrett on June 10th, followed by the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra (July
2nd), a joint appearance by Anna Netrebko, Erwin Schrott and Jonas Kaufmann
(August 16th), the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra conducted by Daniel
Barenboim (August 21st) and a staging of the opera 'Dido and Aeneas' by
star-choreographer Sascha Waltz (August 27th).
In the summer of 2010 the Waldbühne proudly presented an impressive series
of world-class acts ranging from Pink via Prince to Leonard Cohen. All in
all, more than 115.000 people came to enjoy the unique atmosphere of
Berlin's famous arena. The fact that open-air events are particularly
popular due to their very special atmosphere is corroborated by a current
GFK market research study. Accordingly, a significant increase in
attendance is expected for the coming season.
CTS EVENTIM's mission to present a growing number of superior events and
thus support the Waldbühne's reputation of being a truly exceptional venue
is obviously taking the course of a success story. 'We are happy to see
that our commitment to this marvelous arena has proven worthwhile, and that
the Waldbühne Berlin once again finds favor with the world's greatest and
most significant artists. After all, this place is sure to turn any concert
into an unforgettable experience - for audiences and performers alike.',
says Rainer Appel, Vice President of CTS EVENTIM AG.
