Timberlake to head Frauenfeld

Friday, 7 March 2025 06:30

One of the biggest music events in the country, Frauenfeld, has released the line up for this summer – and it’s not going down well.

Social media has been full of negative comments after Justin Timberlake was announced as the headliner.

50 Cent is also a leading name, going down a bit better – but many see him as a bit ‘past it’.

Young Thug will make the trip, after dealing with his legal troubles – he’s been sentenced to 15 years’ probation for gang affiliation.

But the head of the festival, René Götz says the goal was to be a bit broader this year.

But maybe the Frauenfeld crowd are hard to please – one comment on social media was ‘it’s worse than last year’.

Frauenfeld is on July 10th to 12th.
