Format

"Rügen tanzt in den Mai" is the annual May Eve format of the Waldbühne Rügen: an open-air evening with DJ and live acts, turning April 30th into a night of dancing in the natural arena. The program ranges from Schlager to Electronic Dance and Chart music.

Venue

The Waldbühne Rügen on Rugardweg 9 in Bergen auf Rügen is an open-air natural arena nestled in the beech forest of Rugard. With concerts in the genres of Schlager, Pop, Rock, Classical, and Electronic music, it is one of the island's most prominent venues, offering the Baltic Sea audience a packed program from April to September.

Local Context

Rügen is Germany's largest island, located in the Vorpommern-Rügen district of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The "Tanz in den Mai" events build upon the Central European tradition of Walpurgis Night, and are now celebrated in many places with contemporary live and DJ formats — at the Waldbühne Rügen, with a focus on Schlager and Dance music.
