On August 16, 2025 it’s off. We are reviving our open air.
POGOA – a continuation and a new beginning at the same time
The Pott of Gold Open Air, now affectionately known as POGOA, is both a continuation and a new beginning. We are reviving the O’Reilly Open Airs and festivals at a new location. New location, new name – of course. This time at the Ennepebogen in our home town of Gevelsberg, Little Dublin. At the Pott Of Gold Open Air (POGOA) you can look forward to a great line-up and a wonderful summer’s day in hopefully non-Irish weather.
In addition to a special show from us, you can expect a colorful mix from the European Celtic rock scene.

What is the line-up like?
We are delighted to be able to announce the first band. It is none other than our friends from Saint City Orchestra from Switzerland.
Saint City Orchestra
Performances in countries such as Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic, Holland and Italy followed in quick succession until finally the opportunity arose to go on tour with Fiddlers Green. This opened up new horizons and led the band to numerous legendary clubs as well as great festivals.
What really sets the Saint City Orchestra apart is not just their songs, but rather the rousing performances and the exuberant party atmosphere they ignite at every gig. This unique combination of unbridled passion and pure joie de vivre transforms their live shows into unforgettable spectacles.
We have already been able to experience their energy several times and are delighted that they will be playing for you at the Pott of Gold.
