Beatsteaks Honored for Anti-Extremism Efforts

The band receives the 1Live-Krone award for their impactful concert series in Eastern Germany.

The Beatsteaks were awarded the Sonderpreis of the 1Live-Krone for their stand against right-wing extremism.
The band held concerts in twelve autonomous youth centers in Eastern Germany, promoting tolerance and solidarity.
The tour faced threats and opposition from right-wing groups but aimed to empower local youth cultures.
The band views the award as a call to action for others to unite against racism and populism.
The 1Live-Krone awards ceremony will take place on December 5 in Bielefeld, marking its 25th anniversary.
