<a href="https://www.ferropolis.de/en/" target="_blank">Ferropolis</a> has been home to the MELT Festival since 1999. The open-air museum is <a href="https://www.meltfestival.de/en/info/faq#2" target="_blank">centrally located between Berlin and Leipzig</a>, around 20 km from Dessau in Saxony-Anhalt. The peninsula is also <a href="https://www.meltfestival.de/en/info/faq#6" target="_blank">easily accessible</a> via Gr&auml;fenhainichen train station, by train from Berlin via Lutherstadt Wittenberg or directly from Leipzig.

&nbsp;

<h2>HISTORY OF FERROPOLIS</h2>

For decades, the Golpa-Nord open-cast mine (Tagebau Golpa-Nord) in Gr&auml;fenhainichen was a place characterized by untamed industrial forces and environmental damage. At the same time, however, it also stood for secure jobs and the remarkable achievements of miners and engineers in lignite mining. But as the future of lignite in Saxony-Anhalt became increasingly uncertain, a decision had to be made: should the past be erased, the traces covered? Or should we build on the ruins and make a completely new start?

Preparatory work for the Golpa-Nord open-cast mine began in 1957, and seven years later, regular lignite mining began, supplying the Zschornewitz and Vockerode power plants in particular with electricity. Lignite mining already had a long history in Central Germany, dating back to the 17th century. In the 1950s, the previously scattered mining areas were also united into a coherent network that expanded enormously: the result was a network of 20 open-cast mines that produced around 100 million tons of coal every year. Almost 60,000 miners were involved, and the coal was used by numerous power plants, briquette factories and smelters. However, this mining left deep scars in the landscape: the Golpa-Nord open-cast mine was one of the smaller ones, but the effort involved was immense: for one bucket of lignite, six buckets of water had to be pumped out and five buckets of briquettes extracted.&nbsp;The end came in 1991 - the entire lignite industry in Central Germany was on the brink of collapse. The total volume of overburden was 341.3 million cubic meters, and 69.9 million tons of raw lignite were mined on an area of 1,915 hectares.

In Golpa-Nord, however, a new vision began to take shape: Ferropolis. This idea originated at the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation and was driven forward by the enthusiasm and perseverance of the local community. Five large pieces of equipment were erected and the conversion of the former day building into an open-air museum was promoted. In 2000, work finally began on flooding the remaining open-cast mine hole. Groundwater and water from the river Mule, 12.5 kilometers away, was used through a pipeline.&nbsp;This created Lake Gremmin with a size of 541 hectares and a volume of approx. 67 million m&sup3;. The lake has a shoreline length of 15.9 km and is 33 m deep at its deepest point.

Today, Ferropolis is a museum, an industrial monument, a steel sculpture, an event venue and a theme park all in one. The dominant element is the gigantic excavating machines, which look like remnants of a bygone era. Since its opening, there have been hundreds of concerts and events, including Herbert Gr&ouml;nemeyer, Metallica, Deep Purple, Linkin Park and many more.

<h2>EXCAVATORS</h2>

There are a total of five excavators in Ferropolis, giving the site and the MELT its unique atmosphere.

&nbsp;

<h3>MEDUSA</h3>

&nbsp;

<h3>MOSQUITO</h3>

MELT was held for the first time by the name Melt! Festival in 1997 at the Bernsteinsee in Velten in Brandenburg, and the second time the festival was held at the Lärz airfield. Find all information about past lineups here!

HISTORY

We want to create a festival with you where we can all celebrate free from discriminatory behavior, as if there were no tomorrow &ndash; without losing sight of consideration for one another. We want to raise awareness of everyone&#39;s individual boundaries and ensure that Ferropolis is a place where everyone can feel comfortable. We want all of us to enjoy MELT free from any forms of discrimination such as sexism, racism, queerphobia, etc., and focus on a shared, self-determined festival experience.

&nbsp;

<h3>WHERE TO PANAMA?</h3>

<img alt="The sign of our awareness team: Where to Panama?" src="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/appmiral-sonata-media/prod/default/0050/83/dcfb7a0c23869f0edc5c37d00cb0427ce41a399e.png" style="max-width:540px; width:100%" />

&nbsp;

We are continuing our initiative from last year: In 2024, &quot;Where to Panama?&quot; will again be the code word you can use to approach our staff. If you have experienced boundary-crossing behavior or feel uncomfortable, you can identify all involved by their pink vests or pink buttons with the eye logo. They will be present during opening hours in Panama (these locations will be marked on the site plan) or will be mobile on the festival grounds.

We offer a place at our events where you can retreat from the hustle and bustle for a moment. The Panama stations and the awareness team are there to provide festival-goers with self-determined and self-defined help/support/listening. Those affected decide for themselves how to perceive their experiences, and the awareness team helps find solutions together.

&nbsp;

<img alt="The sign of our awareness team: Where to Panama?" src="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/appmiral-sonata-media/prod/default/0050/83/a43370a8f1bbc7e161ef4ed7882b8ff6330cbdf4.png" style="max-width:540px; width:100%" />

&nbsp;

We will take you to a quieter place &ndash; &quot;Panama&quot; &ndash; find solutions together, and be there for you as long as you need us.

&nbsp;

<h3>OUR VALUES &amp; RULES</h3>

<ul>
	<li>We do not tolerate discriminatory behavior. Any forms of discrimination such as sexism, racism, queerphobia, etc., are not welcome at our festival.</li>
	<li>We treat each other with respect and respect the boundaries and feelings of others.</li>
	<li>We look out for each other and help each other.</li>
	<li>We do not judge, whistle, or call out to anyone.</li>
	<li>We want to celebrate peacefully together and solve problems non-violently.</li>
	<li>We do not harass anyone.</li>
</ul>

We want to create a space with you where we can all celebrate free from discriminatory behavior and focus on a shared, self-determined festival experience &ndash; without losing sight of consideration for one another. We want to raise awareness of individual boundaries and ensure that Ferropolis is a place where everyone can feel comfortable. Any forms of discrimination such as sexism, racism, queerphobia, etc., are not welcome at our festival. If you are affected, feel uncomfortable or unsure, you can approach our crew with the question &quot;Where to Panama?&quot;. We will assist you as quickly as possible and without any questions &ndash; no matter what is on your mind or what you need support with. 
If a member of the crew acted in a discriminatory way, it is important to note the individual vest numbers of the security or the stand names of the respective trades so that action can be taken afterwards. Please pay attention to the involved people, the location, the stand/trades nearby and the time of any incidents (if possible). 

Our team is briefed accordingly and can be identified by pink buttons. Our awareness team wears pink vests with an eye printed on them. Feel free to approach them directly or come to the retreat &quot;Panama&quot; &ndash; you can find it marked on the site plan.

&nbsp;

<h3>AWARENESS TEAM</h3>

This year, the awareness team will be provided by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/all.around_awareness/" target="_blank">AllAroundAwareness*</a>, who will wear pink safety vests and be present on the festival grounds and campsite. At least one team member will always remain at the contact points to offer support there.

&nbsp;

<img alt="Part of our awareness team: Always recognizable by the pink vests" src="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/appmiral-sonata-media/prod/default/0053/74/31c3b4353828f3aaa8611c5f1c9937bc1fa0e9c2.jpeg" style="height:auto; max-width:1080px; width:100%" />

AWARENESS

<h2>OUR SELF-IMAGE</h2>

MELT attaches great importance to sustainability. For us, it&#39;s not just about creating great music and entertainment. We also want to have a positive impact on society and the environment.

<ul>
	<li>Ecological responsibility 
	We strive to protect the environment and pay attention to the responsible use of resources. Sustainable decisions are the basis for our future viability. We are therefore open to new technologies and innovations in order to change and optimize processes. 
	&nbsp;</li>
	<li>Social responsibility 
	Diversity &amp; Inclusion: At MELT, we celebrate diversity in all its facets by bringing together people from different backgrounds, cultures and identities. We take accessibility and the participation of every festival visitor into account from the very beginning.</li>
</ul>

&nbsp;

<h3>OUR GOALS UNTIL 2026</h3>

By 2026, we have focused on pursuing the following goals:

<ul>
	<li>Achieving a fossil-free energy supply for our festival.</li>
	<li>Increase the recycling rate of our waste to at least 50%.</li>
</ul>

&nbsp;

<h3>How we achieve these goals</h3>

Energy: We optimize the efficiency of our energy supply through precise performance and energy measurements. We identify potential savings and reduce the consumption of fossil fuels by increasing the use of alternative energy sources. Part of the electricity required for our festival is generated by the photovoltaic system in Ferropolis.

Travel &amp; transport: As a large proportion of our festival&#39;s CO2e emissions are generated in the area of travel &amp; transport, we are working on a holistic mobility concept for you. But we also want to optimize logistics. That is why we are working with research institutions to develop future-oriented solutions for festival logistics.

Materials: In line with the concept of the circular economy, we aim to return all materials used to the cycle and minimize the use of new resources. Our partners support us in this: Trash Galore, Foodsharing, Utopia and eSKa. We also ask our brand partners to refrain from using plastic and packaging.

Food &amp; Beverages: In collaboration with Gastrob&uuml;ro, we are expanding our climate-friendly food offering. In 2023, 53% of the food sold was already vegetarian or vegan. We integrate regional suppliers where possible to further increase the sustainability of our catering. Find out more about Gastrob&uuml;ro&#39;s sustainability <a href="https://gastrobuero.de/nachhaltigkeit/" target="_blank">here</a> (in German).

Governance: By continuously measuring and monitoring our CO2 emissions (Scope 1, Scope 2 and, to a large extent, Scope 3), we create a solid basis for identifying opportunities for improvement.

&ldquo;The Green Euro&rdquo;: When you buy your festival ticket, you will come across the &quot;Green Euro&quot;. For every ticket sold, we set aside one euro for sustainable measures. We invest one part of this budget in green infrastructure and sustainable measures on the festival site, while the other part is donated to an NGO or initiative carefully selected by our team. In this way, we jointly set an example for environmental protection and social responsibility. In 2023, the green euro was invested as follows:

Donations: MELT donated a portion to the D&uuml;bener Heide Nature Park. This is not far from the festival site. The donation will be used to finance measures to renaturalize the moors and preserve biodiversity.

Festival site: Carelessly throwing away cigarette butts in nature pollutes the environment and endangers the health of animals that can ingest the butts. For easy and fun cigarette butt disposal, we have installed ashtrays throughout the festival grounds and camping area.

Using the CROWD IMPACT app, we conducted a visitor survey and determined and evaluated the arrival behavior of our audience.

 
To clean Lake Gremmin after the festivals, we have financed a cleaning campaign with divers who collect waste from the water to preserve the intact ecosystem.

Together with pupils from the Gesamtschule im Gartenreich (Oranienbaum W&ouml;rlitz), we sorted our waste in a waste analysis and determined which recyclable materials are contained in the waste and how high the recycling rate is. This will enable us to improve our waste concept even further.

We also decided to invest part of the green euro in expanding the solar panels in Ferropolis so that we can gradually supply the MELT with more green electricity. (More on this soon).

&nbsp;

<h3>WHAT WE ARE ALREADY DOING</h3>

<img alt="Sustainability measures at MELT" src="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/appmiral-sonata-media/prod/default/0053/17/bbe041609fa1573c50be26256f793076c23acf93.jpeg" style="max-width:1080px; width:100%" />

An important building block on the way to an even more sustainable MELT is the climate accounting of our festival. It helps us to find out in which areas emissions are generated during festival production and what CO2 footprint our activities have. Only when we know where the most emissions are generated can we take targeted measures to reduce them. You can access the detailed sustainability report <a href="https://goodliveag-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/g/personal/melt-drive_goodlive_ag/EbWzKtaaoEVPrG2fBEMs3PwB-jvJYQhFQLRlogN_gA8U4Q?e=fEbOPz" target="_blank">here</a> (in German).

&nbsp;

<h3>WHAT YOU CAN DO</h3>

<ul>
	<li>Use public transport, form carpools or use our <a href="https://www.meltfestival.de/en/tickets#travel">bus travels</a>: 80-90% of emissions come from traveling to the festival. Every kilometer traveled by public transport helps!</li>
	<li>Reduce waste: Use reusable cups, cutlery and lunch boxes and help protect our environment.</li>
	<li>Buy sustainable camping equipment: My tent is my castle! Many tents are left lying around after the festival after only a short period of use. Give your tent some attention, take it home with you and bring it back for the next festival season. Also easy: Rent a tent from our partners <a href="https://meltfestival.de/en/tickets#accomodation">Utopia or Mein Zelt Steht Schon</a> for the duration of MELT!</li>
	<li>Dispose of cigarette butts in the garbage can: use pocket ashtrays or our voting ashtrays to keep the environment clean.</li>
	<li>Separate your waste: help ensure that recyclable materials are recycled. Receive bags from us for plastic packaging and residual waste.</li>
	<li>Dispose of the chip on your festival wristband correctly: The chip on your festival wristband is an electronic device that must be disposed of separately from the wristband and the closure at a recycling center or in a shop after the festival: It is considered electronic waste.</li>
	<li>Respect our Lake Gremmin: Do not use shampoos or shower gels in the water. Only apply sun cream after swimming.</li>
	<li>Avoid peeing in the wild: Use the fixed and portable toilets on site, including our dry composting toilets.</li>
	<li>veggie MELT:&nbsp;give up meat completely during the festival weekend.</li>
	<li>Buy only what you can consume: Take advantage of the numerous food and drink offers on the festival site and campsite.</li>
	<li>Save water: Keep your shower time short.</li>
	<li>Discover NGOs and initiatives in the FAIRopolis: Get involved through exciting workshops, talks or live podcasts.</li>
	<li>FAIROPOLIS is the place where committed and creative people come together and share their visions of a better future - with each other and with you. 
	Together with various organizations, we have created a place where you can find out about interesting topics and take part in workshops. In addition, we offer you further activities and program items during the festival! 
	At the same time, we are also creating an oasis to immerse yourself, feel good and recharge your batteries away from the exciting festival madness with various program items, workshops and exciting discussions with the NGOs. 
	<img alt="NGOs in Fairopolis" src="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/appmiral-sonata-media/prod/default/0054/08/48846fd3459bc45526d4722ceedb8d4aa21ec480.png" style="max-width:1080px; width:100%" /></li>
	<li>See something, say something: Report abusive behavior to the awareness team (you can recognize them by the pink safety vests) or security and ask for help. Inform everyone you are visiting the festival with about &quot;Where to Panama?&quot; at MELT, so everyone knows how to get help and we all look out for each other a little more &lt;3.</li>
</ul>

&nbsp;

Thank you for being part of a sustainable MELT!

<h3>RESEARCH PROJECT ECO2CONCERT</h3>

For the first time in its history, MELT is part of a <a href="https://bmdv.bund.de/SharedDocs/DE/Artikel/DG/mfund-projekte/eco2concert.html" target="_blank">research project</a>. We want to reduce our emissions and to do this we are working with partners from science and research, from the festival sector and from the private sector to collect and model energy, mobility and consumption data and to develop a planning platform for sustainable festival logistics. You can find more information about ECO2CONCERT <a href="https://goodliveag-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/g/personal/melt-drive_goodlive_ag/EWVsc3FJ9jdHlWxQMefv-yYBGKGVxQHTjSsAFSgaYEeYHA?e=dhKD34" target="_blank">here</a> and also on site at MELT.

Beim MELT ist Nachhaltigkeit ein Prozess, kein Zustand. Das machen wir bereits seit Jahren, denn wir denken, dass Festivals eine wichtige Rolle bei gesellschaftlichen Veränderungen spielen.

At MELT, sustainability is a process, not a state. We began pursuing it years ago, because we believe that festivals play an important role in social change.

SUSTAINABILITY

MELT is for everyone! For many years we have been implementing a concept for accessibility on site in cooperation with the <a href="https://kulth-ev.jimdofree.com/">KulTh e.V. / barrier-free festival</a>. In addition to public stands, access routes and toilets for people with walking disabilities, this naturally also includes a low-barrier camping offer. You will soon find more information about this under this link.

For your visit at the festival, you need a regular festival ticket in any case. There are no special tickets for visitors with disabilities. If you have a disabled person&#39;s pass with the remark B, you can have an accompanying person with you without any additional charge. An extra ticket for the accompanying person is not necessary, but he/she must be registered in advance via <a href="mailto:info@kulth-ev.de">info@kulth-ev.de</a>. 
Your accompanying person will then receive a free guest list ticket of your category, which he or she must then also activate in order to obtain the access to the festival. For this you must check in together at the guest list!

&nbsp;

<h3>Special Needs</h3>

If you need assistance, no matter what degree or type of disability you have, want to keep your medication cool, have intolerances or need electricity for your wheelchair, please write us an email in advance at <a href="mailto:info@kulth-ev.de">info@kulth-ev.de</a> - we will take care of it so that we can make your stay as comfortable as possible.
