Dear SUMMER BREEZE Community!
1.: Site map online
The new site map, which has had some major changes since last year, is now online in two versions at the following LINK. Make sure to memorize everything so you still manage to find your way to the stage your favourite band is playing after you’ve enjoyed a few cold ones.

2.: Cancellation: MASTODON
Unfortunately we must announce that MASTODON have cancelled all their shows from early August to early September due to family reasons. Sadly this also affects their show at SUMMER BREEZE Open Air 2015. A big sorry to all those who were looking forward to this show.We will fill the free slot in the headliner programme shortly. We are frenetically searching for a replacement.

3.: ATTENTION: Inquiries / bookings on www.bahn.de
Since the transport authorities have not yet changed the system for the electronic schedule information, at the moment there’s still train connections to Dinkelsbühl appearing on www.bahn.de that almost always include the Ansbach station, because the special services, which have now been cancelled, are still stored in the system. However, this would mean chaos in Ansbach, as the few regular line busses would only be able to accommodate a small number of travellers! So please make sure when inquiring or booking on www.bahn.de that your connection does NOT include Ansbach! We urgently advise you to travel via Crailsheim and Ellwangen. The regular services from Ansbach will obviously operate normally… yet they will not be stopping at the Schiesswasen stop as usual, but at the bus station ZOB Schwedenwiese. Again, we are absolutely powerless in this respect, as the final decision lies with the transport authorities. However, the SUMMER BREEZE shuttle buses will stop at the bus station ZOB Schwedenwiese every day.

4.: Shower and WC flatrate
This year we will offer a shower and WC flatrate for the first time, which you can get at all shower stations for 10.- Euros. Single showers for 2.50 Euros are obviously still possible. Those who wish to use the flushable toilets outside of the flatrate can obviously still do so for 1.- Euro. The two main shower stations will be open continuously from Tuesday at 12:00 noon until Sunday at 12:00 noon. The other two shower stations will be open continuously from Wednesday 12:00 noon and also until Sunday 12:00.

5.: Reserve some ice-cold Beck’s beer for the campsite!
Those who’d rather not carry their beer all the way from home or from the Dinkelsbühl supermarkets can now reserve packs of Beck’s beer vor SUMMER BREEZE Open Air 2015. There is the option to reserve packs of Beck’s beer and Beck’s Green Lemon shandy using the Print@Home function on our website so you can pick them up ice-cold from the supermarket in the barn on sector D of the campsite. One pack of beer or shandy contains 24 cans and costs only 30 Euros including the deposit for returnable cans (“Pfand”). This works out at one Euro per can (24 cans at 1 Euro plus 25 cents deposit). Only 1 Euro system commission per pack and the transaction fee for each order have to be added, so it makes even more sense to order many packs at a time. This means: Reserve your ice-cold Beck’s beer or Beck’s Green Lemon at a very fair price under http://www.summer-breeze.de/en/tickets/print-at-home-tickets.html, then print out your Print@Home confirmation(s) (no printed confirmation, no beer!), go to the campsite and pick up your packs whenever you want presenting your ID card, so you have cold beer at all times. You don’t have to pick up your packs all at once, but can rather take them with you one by one. Orders can be placed until Saturday, 08.08.2015 at 23:00. You can obviously buy packs of Beck’s beer and Beck’s Green Lemon on site as well, although at a slightly higher price…
Attention:
It is prohibited to supply alcohol to minors under 16, which is why you must present your ID card together with the confirmation PDF.

6.: Ice cold: Rent a cooler!
Since the transport and handling of dry ice suppose a series of dangers (unfortunately there were dry ice injuries at SUMMER BREEZE 2014), we were forced by the authorities to ban dry ice on the whole festival site. However, we are aware that, not only for pro festival patrons, on a long summer weekend cold drinks on the campsite are a must, which is why we have been thinking of a smart solution for cooling your drinks. We found an appropriate provider in http://rentacoolbox.de, who have the experience and capacities to fulfil the demand. Although the coolers on offer are also dry-ice powered, the systems are secured, so that the authorities gave us the go ahead. The coolers from keep food and drinks cold for up to three days and are capable to cool down drinks by 20 degrees within 10 to 15 minutes. All interested parties may reserve/rent one or more coolers in various configurations from http://rentacoolbox.de, or just contact the staff on site… We hope this works out as a good alternative to bringing your own dry ice.

7.: Careful when handling fire!
As you know and probably understand, open fires are prohibited on the whole festival. Gas and charcoal grills, on the other hand, are allowed as longs as they are used for what they were intended. All grills and stoves MUST be set up on their corresponding stands on firm ground. Coal trays must not be in contact with the ground. Please note: Oil lamps are not allowed on the festival site. The same applies to firewood and cressets. Due to some serious accidents which have resulted in life threatening injuries, we expressly urge you to exercise extreme caution when using fire starters to light charcoal barbeques. Please take this appeal seriously, as numerous accidents have already happened again during this festival season.

8.: Deadline for the KYLE GASS BAND acoustic guitar duel!
The deadline to enter the contest which will allow three lucky winners to beat Kyle Gass and his band in an acoustic guitar duel is inexorably drawing nearer. You can still submit your videos until 01.08.2015, and that’s it! Post your videos as a YouTube link under the original Facebook post https://www.facebook.com/summerbreeze1997/posts/10153381460101675:0
Shy people may also email their video (one minute max.) or the corresponding link to application@silverdust.de.
Stay heavy! \m/
