next 2 to 3 years so the ground could regenerate. The consequences of the mud in 2010, were that the grass only could spear sparsely which is why the soil was then even more in danger. The wood chips which were spread out in front of all the stages also massively acidifies the soil. Als Vorkehrung gegen eine Verschlammung wurden an vielen Stellen Plastikmatten ausgelegt. As a measurement against siltation, some places of the festival area were carpeted with plastic mats.[31] As the festival 2011 was still going on the promoter already announced on 19 June, that even though they have been having mud problems in the years of 2010 and 2011 there is again going to be a festival in Neuhausen ob Eck in 2012, no matter the weather. For this purpose a five-year contract was closed. 2012 Long before the festival two headliners for the festival in 2012 were confirmed: blinks-182, which were already supposed to perform in 2011 and Die Ärtzte who already ready performed on the southside festival in the years of 2002, 2005 and 2009. Due to the siltation problem, six digit-figure sums of money were invested into the preparation of the ground. A lot of the lawns were supposed to be gravelled. 2013 The Southside Festival 2013 took place from 21 to 23 June. It was sold out, totalling 60 000 visitors. 2014 The Southside Festival 2014 started on Friday 20 June and ended on Sunday the 22nd. 2015 The Southside Festival 2015 took place from 19 to 21 June.
