"It took this festival only a few editions to raise to one of the leading progressive rock festivals in Europe - or probably even the world.
Next to the music and bands that have taken part at the festival editions, the main reason for the success is simply the location! The UNESCO world heritage Loreley is one of the most outstanding open air amphitheaters in Europe. High above the river Rhine, the visitors are overwhelmed by the beautiful surrounding area.
By this outstanding ambiente we continue to establish the festival as the "Mekka of Progressive Rock". The hightlights of the past 3 years have been for sure the appearances of Fish, ASIA, Jethro Tull, Roger Hodgson, Steve Hackett, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Marillion - to name a few.
The tradition to supply a stage for young and emerging artists is one of our major tasks. To give them the chance to play in front of thousands of people will definitely help to create a career.
The VI. NOTP Festival will take place on July 8th and 9th 2011.
DREAM THEATER are confirmed as the Festival Headliner of the 6th Night of the Prog Festival. We are also proud to announce German Prog Legend ELOY to perform their first show within 12 years on friday, July 8th. RIVERSIDE will close the Friday as Co-Headliner.IQ, ANATHEMA are confirmed for Saturday to the Festival. HAKEN, MOON SAFARI and MARTIGAN has been added to the Line IP. Finally SKY ARCHITECT, RPWL and THRESHOLD are the 3 missing Acts which are now confirmed and the Line Up is completed."
