Event: (Az utolsó) Rockmaraton
Venue: Malomvölgyi Arborétum, Pécs, Hungary
Time: July 10-13, 2012
Entrance fee: 9900 HUF
My second festival of this summer was some kilometers away from the last one, in Pécs, just across the border. It is, or rather - was, one of the major metal festivals in this area. However, this year's edition is said to have been the last one. The preparations were enormous, a lot of work has been put in it. In overall, it was a real spectacle, but in small size. At least when compared to some other festivals in Hungary. Not that it's important.
The atmosphere was very private, in an arboretum park near Pécs, with a lake as well. Swimming was not allowed, though.
The festival lasted for the whole week, but I only attended from Tuesday to Friday. I would have stayed longer, though, cause it was really worth being there.
The bands were divided by genres on different stages, but each day had a really good structure, too. I managed to see almost all the bands that I wanted to see; a lot of running from stage to stage was also included.
So, without complicating much, here's what I managed to catch:
 |
| Paddy and the Rats |
Day 01: Tuesday (July 10th)
Bands seen: Niburta, LochNesz, The Moon and the Nightspirit, Paddy and the Rats, Alestorm, Dalriada, Rózsaszín Pittbull, Texas in July.
