HISTORY

The first festival which took place in 1980 was a small one day event where the audience could enjoy free 7 hours of music - in pouring rain!

The first couple of years was a losing concern to the Club and 5 young kids had to guarantee for a bank loan to continue the event. Since then the Festival Club / The Most Beautiful Festival has developed into a well-organized and consolidated Club with more than 10,500 members.
