Rock Am Ring是什么？简单来说Rock Am Ring是很著名的摇滚音乐节，可以说是德国甚至欧洲乃至全球规模最大的摇滚节了。通常都在每年的5,6月份在德国的纽伯灵赛道（Germany Nürburgring）上举办，从1985年开始一直到现在...
据说第一届，即在1985年举办这个只是为了庆祝纽伯灵赛道建成吧，结果呢，那时候居然有超过75,000名观众前来，于是主办方从此以后每年都举办了。但是1989年和1990年没举办。另外有几次没有在纽伯灵赛道上举行，在外站上看那些资料，不知道我翻译正不正确，有3次不在Nürburgring，分别是1993年在Vienna（维也纳），1994年在Munich（慕尼黑Riem-Airport机场，那届称做“Rock in Riem”），1995年在Nuremberg Olympic Park（纽伦堡奥林匹克公园，所以也叫做"Rock im Park"）。
