Dancing in the open air in the middle of the capital: From 27 June to 4 July, a series of bands got the crowd going on five summer evenings. From pop and country to funk and swing – the 2019 programme offered a wide variety of musical gems. "The concept involving different musical styles worked out perfectly for us again," says Judith Mey, LLB Group Sponsoring & Events. "Our audience was a colourful mix." On each of the evenings, 400 to 500 people celebrated and danced in the courtyard of the Landesbank headquarters. The atmosphere was magnificent for all five concerts. St. Peter was also generous to the LLB and the festival audience: The weather was summery and hot throughout – sometimes virtually tropical. 

Expanded street food concept

Not only was a wide variety of music offered – the same was also true of the food. The street food concept introduced this year – with a special hot dog stand and coffee bar – was a big hit. "The feedback was so good that we're not only going to maintain this concept, but even intend to expand it next year," says Mey. Plans are already being made for next year's music as well: "The happy, dancing people motivate us each year to find great bands." The festival, which has become a tradition, also enjoys a very good reputation among musicians. On the concert evenings, Judith Mey was slipped numerous business cards of bands that would like to perform at the festival. Which means that music fans can already look forward to the 24th edition of the LLB festival next year.
