“Screw the lineup. Camping is awesome”: They pay 5000 euros for it

Members of the “Chaos” camp at the Airbeat One festival in Neustadt-Glewe spend about 5,000 euros on their own campsite party. Each of the 70 members pays a 70-euro fee, covering over 50 parking tickets, a stage, sound equipment, and appliances. Organizer Ove Hansen says the group values the camping atmosphere more than the festival’s musical lineup.
