In that time, 32 bands and solo artists have performed in front of an estimated 450,000 visitors, including stars like Jimi Hendrix, Joe Cocker, The Who and Janis Joplin. For the hippies’ biggest festival, the legend of “Woodstock” will be brought back to life once again, in… Wed 9 Aug On an outdoor site at Kotten Nie in Gladbeck.

The legendary hippie event was held in sleepy Bethel, New York – yet it’s making waves around the world. The original festival was considered the pinnacle of the hippie movement in the United States at the time. It’s been more than fifty years since nearly half a million young hippies and music lovers descended on the tiny hamlet of White Lake for three days to celebrate love, peace and happiness.
