Dear Festival Friends,
Two weeks ago we were allowed to write another unforgettable chapter in the history of the Castle Beats Festival. With almost 2600 enthusiastic visitors, two breathtaking stages and a unique backdrop at Rheinfels Castle in St. Goar, this year's festival was a very special experience. As the event team, we would like to share our thoughts and impressions with you.
THE HISTORY
Castle Beats Festival has a very special relationship with this old castle ruin. What started as livestreams in the Corona time, now for the third time in a row let this historic site, with electronic music and enthusiastic guests, come to life. The combination of modern beats and the majestic backdrop of Rheinfels Castle has created a unique atmosphere that is unforgettable for us and our guests.
THE PRESENT
But this year was something different. It was not only a festival, but also a farewell. Rheinfels Castle will be rebuilt and renovated in the coming years, so this year was the last time we had the opportunity to use this magical location for our festival. It feels like we are saying goodbye to an old friend.
But the Castle Beats Festival 2023 was more than just a farewell. It was a tribute to all the unforgettable moments we were allowed to experience at this castle in the last years. The energy of the music, the joy of the visitors* and the breathtaking view of the Rhine have conquered our hearts again.
On the two stages, which were played by international DJs, we presented a variety of electronic music styles. From techno to house to harder styles - there was something for every taste. The guests enjoyed the music to the fullest and gave their best on the dance floors.
THE HIGHLIGHT - OUR HEADLINER
A special highlight was the performance of the Dutch DJ and producer Blasterjaxx, who completely carried away the audience with his beats. Also Blasterjaxx was not for the first time at the castle, because only through him our story at the castle started over 3 years ago.
But also national artists* like Noel Holler, Dropixx and Timbo & This Chris provided unforgettable moments that will echo in our hearts for a long time.
Those who needed a short break from dancing could always enjoy the cool drinks or one of our food offers in the "beer garden".
WE SAY THANK YOU!
The Castle Beats Festival 2023 was an emotional roller coaster ride for us as the event team. We are proud and grateful that we were able to bring this festival to life at Rheinfels Castle and that so many people participated. It was a truly magical experience that we will remember forever.
But even if we have to say goodbye to this unique location, this does not mean the end of the Castle Beats Festival. We are looking forward to the future with anticipation and are already planning to continue the festival at another location. Our passion for electronic music and the enthusiasm of our loyal guests will accompany us.
Finally, we would like to thank all visitors, artists, partners and our dedicated team who made Castle Beats Festival 2023 an unforgettable event. It was a journey full of music, love and friendship that we will never forget.
See you next year!
Your EXC Team
