Also the organisers want to launch an eco-offensive for festivals. The visitor limit will not be increased. The festival organiser announced that they want to reduce the CO2 output and the amount of trash. They want to become the most environmental friendly festival. Therefore they ask their visitors to travel overnight to the festival per sleep-train, so they don’t have to sleep at the festival itself. One train should fit 400 to 600 people. For festival season 2010 bands like Massive Attack, Tocotronic, Gentlemen, Kool Savas and Gerhard Schöne are slated to perform at Ferropolis in Gräfenhainichen.
