'Wacken Rocks Brazil' Postponed

February 6, 2009

The proposed first edition of the "Wacken Rocks Brazil" festival, which was scheduled to take place May 9-10 at Arena Anhembi in São Paulo (SP),Brazil, has been "postponed," according to the event organizers. A new date for the festival has not yet been announced.

The deal for the first installment of "Wacken Rocks Brazil" was struck last year by the partners ICS Festival Service GmbH (which organizes the Wacken Open Air festival),ATOS and Roadie Crew.

Wacken Open Air festival will celebrate its 20th anniversary this year, after having been started in 1990 as a small gathering of local heavy metal bands.

In 2008, Wacken Open Air festival was honored with a Live Entertainment Award in the "Festival Of The Year" category. This award recognizes distinguished achievements in live entertainment and is given out by Live Entertainment Award (LEA) committee. The winners were announced on March 11, 2008.
