Fan zone for Bruce Springsteen in Gelsenkirchen: A celebration for everyone!
On June 27, 2025, Gelsenkirchen warmly welcomes its visitors to the “Springsteen E Street Band Fan Zone” at Heinrich-König-Platz. Whether you're a die-hard fan or just curious, the event is an absolute must for anyone who loves legendary musician Bruce Springsteen and his E Street Band. Radio Emscher Lippe reports that the Fan Zone is open from noon to 7 p.m. and offers a variety of activities: DJ sets, pack singing, merchandise opportunities and a selfie spot are on the program. The best part? Admission is free, even for those who don't have a ticket for the concert in the Veltins Arena.

The return of a giant
Considered one of the greatest songwriters of all time, Bruce Springsteen has had a long and impressive career. His lyrics often deal with the struggles and desires of the working class, shaped by his own experiences in a humble New Jersey environment. Many of his songs tell stories of people who are in difficult situations and reflect his political and social commitment. Loud Song kick Springsteen was hailed as the founder of heartland rock, a style of music particularly associated with the working class of the Rust Belt and Midwest of the United States.
After the impressive success of his albums like “Born in the U.S.A.” and over 120 million albums sold worldwide, Springsteen remains a sought-after live act. His concerts are known for their energy and length, with him even having up to four hours of stage time. In his current touring schedule, Springsteen shows that he has lost none of his charisma and passion for music.
