An up-and-coming young rock band, The Courteeners, will support The Kooks as their special guests. On Saturday evening a live performance by SCOOTER, one of Germany’s most successful bands, will transform the open air stage in the Summer Garden into a dance floor.
All the major TV networks, ARD, ZDF, n-tv, N24 and a first this year Super RTL and Sport 1 will be represented with stands and studios at IFA. For the first time this year the Cologne-based TV broadcaster Super RTL will transform an entire show hall into a colourful discovery world for families and their children. Live coverage, exciting games all to do with this station’s TV formats, imaginative discovery worlds, popular children’s shows such as Bob the Builder and lots of stars await children and their parents visiting the IFA, both in this hall and in the Summer Garden on the weekend.
The daily programme of events in the Summer Garden with “Antenne Café“ will be presented by Inka Bause, Kira Herbrandt and Jürgen Karney. Boasting a new formation, Queensbeery will be sure get the audience in a partying mood. Lou Bega will fascinate the crowds with latin rhythms and Destivo’s tunes will bring back holiday memories. What is more, the East Star Band, Kensington Road, Medlz, Berge, The Baseballs, Meg Pfeiffer, Papes Brüder, Tommy Reeve and Bell Book & Candle are also entertaining the public at IFA.
