The Maifeld Derby has introduced more names for its 11th edition, completing this year’s line-up. London Grammar, among others, unfortunately had to cancel their planned appearance, but that shouldn’t mitigate the anticipation: “From noise punk to tick rap to Italo pop hits” everything will be there from June 9th to 12th, 2022 in Mannheim, write the organizers full-bodied, “from Grammy winners and nominees to newcomers who have emerged fresh from the pandemic.”
Here is the festival program planned by day – all names in bold have been reconfirmed:

In 2019 we spoke to festival organizer Timo Kumpf about why the Maifeld Derby 2020 would not take place – and thus at a time when nobody suspected that the corona pandemic would lead to this and not otherwise.
