The black scene will meet again in Leipzig at Whitsun. Up to 20,000 guests from Germany and abroad are expected at the 33rd Wave-Gotik-Treffen (WGT), emphasized festival spokesman Cornelius Brach. Until Monday, they can attend concerts by scene stars, experience a medieval market or come together in the "Pagan Village".
According to the organizers, more than 200 artists have confirmed their participation in this year's WGT. Many concerts will take place on the Agra grounds. The Felsenkeller, the Gewandhaus, the Täubchenthal and the Moritzbastei are also integrated into the WGT program. Music from all genres of the dark scene will be on offer - including gothic rock, electro, dark wave, medieval rock and industrial.
