Hi everyone!
I'm going to be travelling around Germany in late May to mid June. Looking for suggestions of places with cool local metal scenes, shops, shows or whatever would be worth it for a Canadian girl to check out!
Cheers!
I'll be flying into Frankfurt and ending there to stay with friends a few days. Definitely planning on checking out Berlin for a day or two. Looking to see as much as I can given my time frame! Prague is definitely on my list too!
Berlin is a must if you come to Germany! Haven't been there for a long time, but it's always worth it! You should also consider visiting Vienna / Austria. Beautiful ancient city!
If you want to visit a good festival, you should check out RockHard Festival 2017 https://www.rockhard.de/festival.html
While you're in Frankfurt, you can check out the Batschkapp Club - good place for gigs & party.
In Wiesbaden the Schlachthof and in Aschaffenburg the Colos Saal ( both cities are close to Frankfurt ).
In Mainz there's a nice Rock Club called Alexander The Great - they always make some Rock/Metal parties.
Berlin is full of awesome Clubs, and also the Ruhrgebiet ( what DuckyBoy mentioned ) - especially the Turock in Essen.
Cheers :)
Omg, no way! Aschaffenburg is going to be my home base as that's where my friends live, that's amazing they have something there. Thanks a bunch for the suggestions :)
Hi ... sorry for the late reply :/
So, here are some infos about the RockHard Festival
First of all a link to a website in english: https://www.rockhard.de/festival/infos/international-infos.html

Bands confirmed so far are:
Opeth
Behemoth

It's a underground One-Day-Festival with about 400 visitors, different styles of metal bands are playing, ticket costs about 20€. (you can buy a ticket at the festival ground on the same day, it won't sold out). If you are interested in ask me for more information about city, festival etc. Some of my friends organize it and I'm living here.
Officially going to the Exodus gig in Memmingen June 5th! I'd love to go to one of these fests but money is tight lol. Thank you to everyone for the suggestions!
