place to have a rock music festival than in a rock quarry. One of the
hottest European music shows and more unique open air alternative music
events festivals gaining popularity in Germany the Melt!

at Ferropolis (iron city) at the town of Grafenhainichen in the former

past ten years. The music show takes place over a three day weekend in
July when the night is filled with high energy techno light shows and
high energy music bouncing off the hulking metal of arms of heavy monster
equipment. More than 80 live acts, 6 stages and dance floors with DJs
under the massive machinery of this open pit iron mine.
