We are delighted to announce the return of one of the most dynamic and versatile bands on the German music scene: DONOTS! They rocked the stage at the very first Reload in 2006 and rocked the festival grounds again in 2013. Now it’s high time for them to perform with us again!

Originally rooted in punk and alternative rock, they have steadily expanded their musical palette over the years. Whether punk, rock, pop or even metal – their songs offer a colorful mix that delights a wide audience and is constantly winning new fans. This versatility is also reflected in their intense live performances. No wonder their concerts are real highlights, where interaction with the audience and a positive atmosphere are paramount.

But the DONOTS don’t just have a lot to offer musically. Their message is profound and often touches on social and political issues. With a good mix of serious and humorous lyrics, they address topics such as community, friendship, resistance to injustice and the joy of life. This lyrical content, paired with their strong DIY ethos, makes DONOTS an incredibly authentic band that manages to stay close to their fans. Their deep connection to the German punk and alternative scene strengthens their fan base’s sense of community and makes them more than just a band – they are a movement.

We can hardly wait to welcome the DONOTS back on stage in 2025!
