Īfter 29 editions of Rock am Ring, the new owner of the Nürburgring decided that the contract would not be extended. The experiment concluded no significant results would come from the theoretical event. The experiment data was used to calculate the result if the entire Chinese population were to jump in unison.

The 2007 festival was used in a science experiment to test the effects of large bodies of people simultaneously jumping. Since 2004 the venue moved again to the current Zeppellinfeld, where Rock im Park was since held with the exception of the 2006 festival, which was moved to the Luitpoldhain. In 1997 Rock im Park moved to Nuremberg's Frankenstadion where it was held until the venue was unavailable in 2004 because the stadium was being renovated for the 2006 Football World Cup. For the 1994 event, Rock im Park moved to the disused Munich-Riem airport, and the following year to Munich's Olympiastadion, where it found a home for the 19 event. In 1993, Rock im Park took place for the first time in Vienna. In 1991, the festival returned with a new concept: as well as featuring well-known artists, event organizers present lesser known up-and-coming bands to the public. However, after a dip in attendance for the 1988 event, the festival was put on hiatus for two years. Rock am Ring was originally planned as a one-time festival on the Nürburgring motorsports complex, celebrating the inauguration of a newer, shorter version of the race track in 1985, but due to its commercial success (with 75,000 audience members), it was decided to make the concert an annual event. Combined, Rock im Park and Rock am Ring are the largest music festivals held in Germany and one of the largest in the world with a combined attendance of over 150,000 people in 2007, selling out both events in advance for the first time. There have been minor exceptions in the past years where an artist would be announced for one of the festivals only. All artists perform one day at the Nürburgring and another day in Nürnberg during the three-day event. Sharing nearly identical lineups, the two festivals are usually regarded as one event. While Rock am Ring takes place at the Nürburgring race track, Rock im Park takes place at the Zeppelinfeld in Nuremberg. The Rock am Ring ( German for "Rock at the Ring") and Rock im Park ("Rock in the Park") festivals are two simultaneous rock music festivals held annually.
