7th Liquid Sound Festival 8th-9th November 2008 - A round-the-clock night of wonder. Concerts underwater and on dry land, Bathe aund dream in sound, light and imagescapes in three thermal baths 

Toskana Therme Bad Sulza
Toskana Therme Bad Schandau
Therme am Park Bad Nauheim

For the seventh time in succession and as unique as ever: underwater art for all the senses, round the clock, all night long, from Saturday evening to a matinee on Sunday morning. With performances and sounds in the water and on and above the water’s surface, the festival takes place in parallel in the Toskana Therme Bad Sulza, the Toskana Therma Bad Schandau and, for the very first time, in the Therme am Park Bad Nauheim.

The Liquid Sound concept has spawned its own unique culture which matures and grows finer with each year. Water-savvy artists develop works that address all the sense of the bathing public. Times loses importance, sounds and images arise, dreams in water begin. For connoisseurs of contemplative bathing without doubt one of the most lavish nights of the year.
