German term

Zeltbühnen

German to English Other Tourism & Travel
Gaffenberg Festival Ende Juni – Anfang Juli 4 Tage in wäldlicher Umgebung präsentieren internationale Künstler auf 4 Zeltbühnen ihr Können. Ebenfalls gibt es Kleinkunst vom Allerfeinsten, sowie Deftiges aus der Region

Auch das ist wieder aus einer Hotelinformation (Heilbronn).

Vielleicht war schon mal einer da, und weiß wie es ist. Das würde mir helfen. Spielen die Bands im Zelt, oder Ist die Bühne überdacht, und die Leute stehen draußen. Dieser ganze Satz ist irgendwie doof.

ich habe das ganze so �bersetzt: international artists display their skill for 4 days in a forest setting on 4 tent stages. You will also find cabaret of the best plus culinary regional specialities

Bin aber noch nicht zufirieden.

Selected

(covered) stages

On the Glastonbury website, they are simply referred to as 'stages':
http://www.efestivals.co.uk/festivals/glastonbury/info-WhatT...
They are not really 'open-air' because they are covered, nor are they 'tent' because they are not completely enclosed. Maybe something with 'canopy'?

A covered stage is assembled for the concerts at the base of the grandstand allowing for excellent viewing from all sections. (See picture)

Large outdoor covered stage measuring 20\' (6m) wide and 15\' (4.5m) depth. The stage floor is 3\' (1m) off the ground. This is the toughest stage around made from steel girders bolted together on site with 18mm ply floor supported over wooden flooring joists. Complete with a tented roof. Rear and side walls as required at no extra cost.... (also with picture)

‘open-air stage’ - ‘Freilichtbühne’

There may be a retractable roof for both audience and performers as at the Bad Hersfeld Stiftsruine

If these people are presenting works of art (paintings etc), \'artists\' is fine. If they are musicians, they are better described as \'performers\'.
internationale Künstler präsentieren auf 4 Zeltbühnen ihr Können...
>...performers from all over the world will show off their talents on four covered stages...

tent stage

Nahezu zeitgleich gab es auf der einzigen Zeltbühne (W.E.T.-Stage = Wacken Evolution Tent Stage) einen Streetpunk-Doppelschlag der Extraklasse: Die V8 WANKERS (D) und die Schwedenrocker aus Vesteräs PSYCHOPUNCH gaben sich die Klinke in die Hand und dazu auch noch richtig Gas! In Wacken ist halt für jeden was dabei. PSYCHOPUNCH glänzten nicht nur mit dem Songs ihres aktuellen Albums "The pleasure kill", auch die älteren Stücke, allen voran Back in the days wurden frenetisch gefeiert.

open air stages

Big tent-like structures with a stage - to be seen at any pop festival.

The purpose of the covering is to protect both the artistes and, above all, the electronics/electrics from inclement weather - but slanting rain has been known to cause big time problems! The audience are not covered/protected they are under open heaven. The more modern structures have a form of curtain to close it after or between shows and overnight. Open air derives from the fact that these stages are not in a permanent structure i.e. a brick etc. building.

agree Reiner Dieg (X) : would hyphenate though: open-air

Hallo Alexandra. Würde eher sagen: International artists will display their skills in a forest setting on 4 (tent) stages for 4 days. You will also be treated to the finest cabaret and regional culinary specialities.
