The Amphi Festival is a
alternative, electronic music, and dark music. The number of visitors to the event in 2009 was 13,000 per festival day.[1][2][3]
The first Amphi Festival took place in its namesake at the Amphitheater in
future pop to medieval rock and gothic rock.[4] There is also a disco program in the evening as well as readings and theater productions. The theater was used as the indoor stage until 2009 when it was changed to only being used for showing movies and band DVDs or as a disco and the Rheinparkhalle took over the role of the indoor stage for one day until a two-square-meter portion of the ceiling collapsed during the performance by Feindflug.[5][4] There were no injuries but Laibach's performance was delayed and moved back to the theater.[2]
Orkus magazine is the official sponsor of the festival and releases DVDs of the event in their issues at the end of the year.[6]
