WE ARE AMPHI! - MEMORIES, IMAGES AND EMOTIONS FOR THE AMPHI WEEKEND 2020!

Dear Amphi Family,
Since 2005, when we went our first steps together, the Amphi Festival has become a very special place. A place that surges us with its energy, a place we feel ourselves being understood and where we can reveal and live our true selves. The memories of the celebration, friendship and family companion us far beyond the very moments, in which we actually sing, drink and dance together. They even comfort us in moments when our everyday lives threaten to overwhelm us. The Amphi Festival has long since evolved from a single place into a distinct feeling that equally fulfills us with fond memories as it nurtures our anticipation for exciting future experiences.

Despite the Amphi Festival cannot take place this year, due to the Corona-crisis, the last „goodbye“ is far from being spoken. The Amphi story will continue! Even though many of them may divide us momentarily, the more we are feverishly counting those days until we finally meet again in what is to become a massive celebration and we know you feel exactly the same way!

Therefore let's take the occasion of this special weekend and indulge ourselves in sweet recollections of the past and the fire of anticipation for 2021. With today's „Amphi Memories Video“ we take the lead and browse through some of the images of the more recent past. Share this video to your hearts desire! Let one post look like a hundred!

Of course this is only the beginning: we are sure you have a lot of great anecdotes, photos, galleries and videos of unique Amphi-moments yourselves. We herewith ask you to share your memories with us on facebook and post them there down in the comments below our clip. Texts, photos, links, videos, perhaps even stories told by yourselves in a video message - feel free to participate as you like. Let's fill facebook with the Amphi Festival. We are excited for your contributions!

Together we will overcome Corona and meet again! In the meantime you can still support us. Tickets for Amphi 2021, with all bands from 2020, and the supporter merchandise are available at Amphi Shop at www.amphi-shop.de. Of course your Amphi 2020 tickets remain valid for 2021. It's only a pleasure deferred!
All will be Amphi!
Your Amphi Festival Team

WE ARE AMPHI! - CONTENT-CALL FOR THE WEEKEND!

Dear Amphi Family,

this upcoming weekend the Amphi Festival would have opened its gates for the 16th time. As we all know, things are bound to play out otherwise. However, amidst these difficult times, we don't plan on drowning in grief. Instead we want to take the occasion of this special weekend to fill our wounded hearts with fond memories and the joy of anticipation for 2021. In preparation of this, we send you the following call:

On Friday, 24.07., we are planning a major facebook post. We would be very happy if you join us on that post over the course of the Amphi weekend (24.-26.07.) by sharing photos, galleries, videos and stories of your Amphi experiences in the comments of that particular post!

In order to give you some time to prepare for the weekend, we ask you to please browse through your photos, photo-galleries, videos and anecdotes of past Amphi Festivals. If you like, you can also pre-formulate a few words about noteworthy, beautiful or even crazy memories you have, associated with the Amphi Festival. Or you tell the story yourself by posting a video message!

Please dive in for a little treasure hunt and create a pre-selection you want to share with the community during next weekend. Let us fill facebook with Amphi Festival memories from Friday onward! We are already looking forward to all contributions!

Kind regards
Your Amphi Team
OFFICIAL AMPHI PRE-PARTY MOVED TO 2021 WITH ALL DJS

Dear Amphi Family,

like the Amphi Festival itself of course the OFFICIAL AMPHI PRE-PARTY can't take place this year either. The good news: meanwhile we received positive feedback from all four DJs, so we are happy to announce, that the party, which was originally planned for 2020, will take place next year without line-up changes. To be more precise, it will be postponed to 23.07.2021 at Theater am Tanzbrunnen.

To give you a quick reminder of what's to expect, the line-up of the evening will continue to comprise:

RONAN HARRIS (VNV Nation)
SVEN FRIEDRICH (Solar Fake)
ELVIS (The Memphis)
MSTH (ElectronicDanceArt)

If you already own tickets for the original 2020 party, you will be delighted to hear, that those tickets automatically remain valid for the new date in 2021!

In case you haven't secured your ticket(s) yet, we also have to give you a heads up, as the bulk of tickets has already been sold. At this point we only have a limited contingent of tickets left.

As usual tickets for the OFFICIAL AMPHI PRE-PARTY are available at our Amphi Shop at www.amphi-shop.de or at CTS/Eventim.

Kind regards
Your Amphi Team

ALL BANDS OF 2020 NOW CONFIRMED FOR 2021 & PRE-SALE UPDATE

Dear Amphi Family,

Thank you very much for your patience regarding news on the Amphi Festival 2021. After some very challenging weeks, the moment has finally come at which we can slowly allow ourselves to look forward again and to present you the full line-up for 2021. Thanks to the flexibility of all involved artists and agencies we can keep this matter pleasingly short. All bands announced for the 2020 line-up will catch up on their appearances in 2021! Additionally all day ticket owners among you will be excited to read, that the original allocation of the bands by days will remain unchanged as well.

UPDATE REGARDING TICKET PRE-SALE FOR 2021

Unfortunately we are left with no other choice than to soften the additional financial burden, caused by the Corona-crisis, with a slightly increased ticket price for the Amphi Festival 2021. However, you still have the opportunity to secure your Amphi tickets at their original 2020 price until 15. June 2020. This coincides with the 2020 tickets still being available at our Amphi Shop at www.amphi-shop.de until this day.

Those of you who have already purchased a ticket for 2020 are of course still perfectly supplied. The tickets will remain valid for 2021 WITHOUT ADDITIONAL CHARGE (!). We still plead to keep your tickets if possible. If you can't make it to the festival date 2021, please contact us by mail via tickets@amphi-festival.de as of 14.06.2020.

On 16. June 2020 the ticket price for weekend tickets will increase to 89,00 Euro (plus pre-sale fee and shipping) and for day tickets to 60,00 Euro (plus pre-sale fee and shipping). Please be advised that the pre-sale for 2020 was already very well advanced. Consequantially this means there is only a limited number of tickets remaining for 2021.

So much for today's news. We wish you all the best and please get through summer in good health!

Kind regards
Your Amphi Festival Team
