Country To Country Continues To Conquer Germany

Europe’s biggest country music festival C2C: Country to Country once again set new standards with this year’s edition March 7-9, 2025, transforming the Uber Eats Music Hall in Berlin, Germany, and the entire festival area at the surrounding Uber Platz into a vibrant meeting place for country music fans.

A total of 9,000 country fans flocked to the capital from all over Germany for the occasion, according to a press release from Semmel Concerts, which promotes Country To Country in Germany alongside AEG Presents. This year’s edition featured 51 international artists, providing fourteen hours of entertainment each day.

The lineup included Lainey Wilson, Dasha, Shaboozey, Sam Barber, as well as newcomers like Max McNown, Ali Walker, Adrien Nunez, and Lanie Garnder, who performed across a total of seven stages, including a new one by C2C partner Holler, the international country website. 49 Winchester, Wyatt Flores, The Castellows, Tucker Wetmore, Chase Matthew, Tanner Adell, Nate Smith, Chayce Beckham, Avery Anna, and more also featured on the bill.

According to Semmel Concerts, demand from both the public and the media for Country To Country was “growing rapidly,” as evidenced by the many German dailies visiting and covering the event for the first time – in addition to other high-profile media coverage.

Uber Platz, the area surrounding the main venue, offered a diverse range of entertainment designed “to immerse visitors in the world of country music.” Special performances, cinema screenings, food stalls, merchandise shops, and community tents brought the feeling of Nashville to the heart of Berlin – enjoyed by more than 9,000 ticket buyers.

One particular highlight was the large tent in the centre of Uber Platz, which hosted meet and greets with C2C artists, and more.

“A special highlight,” according to Semmel Concerts, “was the ‘Heart to Heart’ concert series, which captivated audiences across all three days with emotional and intimate live moments,” hosted by The Bosshoss, one of Germany’s biggest country/rock acts.

Sina Hall of Semmel Concerts said, “The impressive growth of the country genre in Germany was more than evident at the festival in Berlin. The enthusiasm of the fans shows how much country music has now arrived in the mainstream – and with growing momentum. Year after year, the passion grows, the audiences get bigger and the atmosphere more unforgettable. This festival has proven once again that country is not just a niche in Germany, but a movement that is constantly growing!”
