A weekend for true blues rock spirit
Rory Gallagher is considered one of the defining figures of European blues rock: The official legacy describes him as a musician with over 2000 concerts, strong songwriting qualities, and extraordinary stage presence. This very spirit will be at the center in Fürth, as tribute acts and acoustic setups trace the breadth of his work from powerful to intimate.

Two evenings, many facets
On Friday, November 27, The Factory – bluesXtended and Crest of a Wave will kick off the musical series. On Saturday, November 28, Next Passing Breeze, Barry Barnes – acoustic, and Etched In Blue will follow. The result is a concert experience focused on sound culture, dynamics, and that raw honesty that makes Rory Gallagher's music so immediate to this day.

An exhibition with special radiance
More than just a tribute evening: The announced exhibition with guitars and amplifiers from Rory's personal collection gives the weekend a museum-like, almost tangible character. This creates a rare interplay of concert and original objects, particularly for fans of vintage instruments, amp history, and blues history.

Suitcase Factory: close by, but not accessible
The suitcase factory is located at Lange Straße 81 in 90762 Fürth. The tourist information mentions the subway stops Stadtgrenze or Jakobinenstraße as the nearest arrival options; the suitcase factory itself points out that access is only possible via a staircase, and therefore the location is not accessible. The in-house gastronomy provides food and drinks, creating a relaxed, club-like atmosphere for the evening.
