Save The Core

Save The Core is not held every year — editions in 2024 and 2026 in the Stadionpark Nürnberg are documented. No independent edition in 2025 is recorded. The festival's concept remains key: a compact punk and hardcore open-air that consciously focuses on substance over spectacle, with short distances, direct contact between bands and audience, and a lineup ranging from California Skatepunk to New York Hardcore, Ska, and Rock'n'Roll. Thus, the festival organized by Concertbüro Franken has established itself as a fixture in the Franconian scene.
