A summer moment with club soul
The Kreuzsteinbad, known to many in Bayreuth simply as Kreuzer, combines swimming pool atmosphere with plenty of space, lawns, and the special thrill of an event outdoors. This mix is what makes it so appealing: daylight offers light, air, and vastness, later followed by an electronic set that intensifies with the dusk.

Sven Väth: An icon shaping dance floors for decades
Sven Väth is one of the defining figures in electronic music in Germany. His career took him from an early DJ start in the Rhein-Main area to the most influential club in the Frankfurt scene, the Omen, and to personal projects like Eye Q, Harthouse, and Cocoon. His most famous solo album Accident in Paradise and the single successes around OFF show how strong his influence on techno and trance still impacts today.

The sound of the evening: pulsating, precise, physical
Experiencing Sven Väth live means not getting a casual DJ set, but a concert experience with a dramatic arc. His sets are known for their long tension arcs, clever timing, and an intense audience atmosphere. This interplay of orchestration, pressure, and collective euphoria makes open-air nights with him so special. ([sven-vaeth.de](https://www.sven-vaeth.de/karriere/?utm_source=openai))
