Do you want to get a place on one of the poles of the popular pole-sitting contest at the 27th W:O:A? From now on you can register for it!
Just write an email to polesitting2016@wacken.com. Please mention your complete name, your W:O:A ticket number, as well as time and day you would like to join the contest. We try to satisfy your wishes as good as we can. The pole-sitting times will be from Wednesday, 3rd August to Saturday, 6th August from 10:00 h – 16:00 h and 16:30 h – 22:30 h. We have 32 participation places and the first 32 emails will be taken into account for registration.
Rules:
You have to sustain for 6 hours on one of the poles to win a VIP upgrade. Except for 10 minutes every 2 hours, the seat may not be left. You can enjoy the festival in a height of 2.5 meters, lean back and let your eyes wander over the festival, while the bands are playing on the Black, True and Party stage.
Donations:
Different companies will take over sponsorships for the poles. For every hour you sustain on the pole they are donating € 10 to the Wacken Foundation. At the festival you are invited to visit the Wacken Foundation Camp in direct proximity to the pole-sitting. Here you can take part in the activities or as an artist you can inform yourself about the Wacken Foundation and how they could support you.
We will reserve one pole for people who would like to take a picture or shortly enjoy the view. For a little donation you can climb one of the poles for 10 minutes! (for this you do not need to register, just come along!)
Good luck to all who want to register!!
