Herbert Grönemeyer, who has been a patron of new talent for a number of years, presented seven stylistically diverse line-ups from his "Grönland" label on the closing night of the festival edition 2005. He was MC for the evening and played with some of the acts. Anyone who is familiar with Herbert Grönemeyer from interviews and his shows knew to expect intelligent, first-class entertainment as well as good music. The variety of music being performed and the presence of Herbert Grönemeyer made the show – which is a European exclusive – a unique and unforgettable experience.
