Stage Capacity

[My Selene]

What's the capacity for the audience at Black and True Metal stages? And are there any pics here? I can't be bothered to look anymore.

Capacity? Well......if all visitors want to see one band, they will all have a piece of earth to stand on.......so......let's say the capacity is 30.000......if you want to stand IN FRONT OF the stage and not left or right of it.........otherwise it might be 50.000 or something like that.

Don't really think there is something such as a real "capacity", though. It's just VERY VERY large.

Good that there is room for it

just been looking for some good pictures and I don't seem to find any

this http://xs.to/xs.php?h=xs35&d=05265&f=MessiahsKiss.jpg doesn't even show the size of the area in front of the stage........but it's nice anyway
this picture was taken in 2002 and that spot is still quite CLOSE to the stage itself!

That is True Metal stage i suppose, since Messiah's Kiss is power/heavy. Is black stage as big as this?

 

[Kate McGee]

Exactly the same size as True Stage. Party Stage is a bit smaller, and the WET stage in the tent is a bit smaller than Party Stage. But even the tent has a capacity of...hmm...maybe two thousand people? who knows...

Note that the picture is from 2002. I'm not even sure if they still have the same stages or if they've got different ones which might be even a bit larger. But I guess this is the largest size of festival stages that you can possibly get...

It looks fine

Well... we have two guys without a shirt on, standing in front of a stage with a power-metal band playing on it. Go figure.
