Rock am Ring Festival kicked off yesterday in Germany. The celebration will last until Sunday and is set to feature performances from the likes of Machine Gun Kelly, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Claptone, Gojira and many more. Well, it seems like the first day of the event did not go on so smoothly, seeing as at about 9:30pm German time, approximately 80,000 people were evacuated after police received a terrorist threat on the venue.

Check out the statement from the festival below and stay tuned for more info!
