The concept was straightforward: ten days of music, sport and culture on the lakeside grounds of Expo Park. After two pandemic cancellations in 2020 and 2021, the festival returned strongly in 2022. Attendance in 2024 reached over 85,000 visitors across ten days, according to the festival organizers. The 2025 edition set a new record with over 90,000 visitors and 43 concerts, as reported by Swiss news agency Keystone-ATS. The venue capacity stands at 11,000 visitors per day. A service agreement between the festival and the city of Nidau, signed in 2024, covers the festival through 2027, confirming that a 2027 edition is planned. Headliners historically span rock, hip-hop, Latin and pop genres, and the festival consistently champions Swiss artists alongside international names.
