Packing has started and therefore we are closing the 25th edition of Under The Black Sun festival. Apart from snow, we experienced almost every weather condition but managed to keep everything running.
We would like to thank everyone involved in making UTBS2024 happen, foremost Irsins Sound, Armageddon Sound Works, MS Backline, Kältetod Legion's stage and backstage crew, our security, the tireless bar-crews supplying you with all the drinks, Lense of Sense for the relentless photo coverage, Mira Grunn for the festival-merch, Warchrist Production for the upcoming full show videos, the shuttle drivers and the many hands and runners. You are the ones making the whole event possible!
Thanks to Partyservice Daniela Prestin, the icecream truck and the cocktail truck for their awesome service! We hope, you had some great meals and drinks when enjoying the concerts.
Once again, huge thanks to all the bands for coming to Friesack and delivering a hell of a show on all three days!
And last but not least, thanks to all the fans for coming to UTBS2024 and making it possible to have another instance of insanity in 2025.
So, we are already looking forward to see you in 2025 - Under The Black Sun!

Cheerz!
Joerg & Erik
