The winner of the AET My Choice Audience Award 2025 is Radius, an electrifying German funk band that played energetic shows at last year’s festival.

Headlining the first weekend, they set the piazza on fire with an unforgettable performance, winning the most public voting votes. Radius is the first confirmed band for the festivals 42. edition. Their return promises to be one of the festival’s most anticipated highlights. (Fun fact: they narrowly beat the spectacular Traktorkestar in public voting.)
