Green Day, Maneskin and Die Ärzte, among others, perform at Rock im Park.
Now the organizers have announced two new acts for the festival.
Nuremberg - Rock in the Park is getting closer and closer.
The festival takes place in Nuremberg from June 7th to 9th - at the same time the twin festival Rock am Ring runs at the Nürburgring.
This year, Green Day, Billy Talent, Maneskin and Die Ärzte are taking part, among others.
With Keanu Reeves there is also a touch of Hollywood present at the dozen pond.
Now the organizers have announced two new acts.
Slayer guitarist Kerry King is making his comeback at Rock im Park 2024 - H-Blockx is also there
“H-Blockx and Slayer icon Kerry King live at Rock im Park 2024,” the organizers say on Instagram.
King, guitarist of the cult thrash metal band Slayer, which dissolved in 2019, has confirmed his participation.
He recently returned after a five-year break with his solo project and album “From Hell I Rise”.
For H-Blockx, these are the first appearances at Rock am Ring and Rock im Park since 2010. They are celebrating the 30th anniversary of their debut album “Time To Move”.

But there is also a downer: Mudvayne have to cancel their European concerts, which also means their appearances at the twin festivals are cancelled.

Fan joy over H-Blockx and Kerry King at Rock im Park in Nuremberg - Mudvayne has to cancel
“Kerry King!!!
Awesome!!” says one person happily in the comments.
“H-Blockx live with Little Girl - then I die,” someone writes with a heart-eyed smiley.
"How cool!
I'm listening to 'Rising High' by H-Blockx on a continuous loop at the moment.” The two new acts have been more than well received by the fans.

But the rejection doesn't go uncommented either: "Mudvayne," someone simply writes to three crying smileys.
For one woman, this news even has consequences: “No Mudvayne... that means the festival is over for me.
I would literally have gone there JUST because of them.” Others, on the other hand, can no longer wait for the weekend in June: “Really stable line-up”, “I’m really looking forward to it” or “a very awesome line-up” are just a few of them Comments.
