German rock band AnnenMayKantereit performed to a sold‑out crowd of about 11,000 people at the Königswinkel Open Air in Füssen’s Barockgarten, near the Neuschwanstein Festival Hall. The concert was part of the band's ongoing tour of Germany, Austria and Switzerland, following previous shows that have also sold out. Lead vocalist Henning May’s deep, gravelly voice and the band’s hits such as “Barfuß am Klavier” and “3 Tage am Meer” energized the audience under the night sky over the Forggensee.
