Premiere Open Air with Dorfrocker on the traditional Franconian beer cellar
The Pretzfelder Keller Open Air is the first concert event of this magnitude at the traditional brewery cellar of Nikl-Bräu in Pretzfeld. The Dorfrocker — three brothers from Lower Franconia who provided a soundtrack for a rural generation in the 2010s with their mix of Schlager, Pop, and party music — are among Germany's best-known folk music-pop acts. As part of their Dorf-Tour 2026, they are stopping in the Franconian Switzerland.
The Pretzfelder Keller is a Franconian institution: a beer cellar located in the forest east of Pretzfeld, operated by the Nikl-Bräu brewery. From spring to autumn, it offers freshly tapped cellar beer, homemade delicacies, and a unique panoramic view of the Franconian Switzerland's hilly landscape. For generations, the cellar has been a popular meeting place for hikers, cyclists, and beer lovers — a typical example of the Upper Franconian beer cellar culture.
The concert takes place in the front area of the cellar on a specially erected stage. Regular cellar operations continue in the back area during the concert — so those who simply want to enjoy a cold beer without a concert ticket can still do so. This dual use is a hallmark of the new format.
Pretzfeld is a market town with about 2,500 inhabitants in the Forchheim district in Upper Franconia (State of Bavaria). The municipality is located in the heart of the Franconian Switzerland — one of Germany's most beautiful low mountain ranges with karst rocks, caves, castles, and an extremely high density of breweries. The Forchheim district alone has over 70 breweries — Nikl-Bräu Pretzfeld is one of the oldest.
The premiere of the Pretzfelder Keller Open Air on June 26, 2026, brings the Dorfrocker to the traditional beer cellar of the Nikl-Bräu brewery. The three brothers Tobias, Markus, and Philipp Thomann are among the best-known representatives of the modern folk music-pop wave in Germany and are on tour as part of their Dorf-Tour 2026.
