German rock concert and festival schedule 2026‑27

Entities: Die Toten Hosen · Campino · Frank Bartlet · Freiburg · Jethro Baker

Overview

In June 2026 German promoters announced two open‑air festivals for the upcoming summer: the Morgenrot Open Air (18‑19 Sept 2026, Rudolstadt) celebrating a band’s 25th anniversary, and the Village Rock Söhlde Open Air (10‑11 July 2026, Lower Saxony). Later that month further summer dates were added, including the Ladenburg Altstadtrock Festival (11 July 2026, Dry Aged headlining), System of a Down at Berlin’s Olympiastadion (8 July 2026) and a Die Toten Hosen concert at the same venue, rescheduled to 12 July 2026 after a brief postponement. The Olympiastadion show attracted roughly 70,000 fans and featured guest appearances by Farin Urlaub and Sven Regener. The Rockharz Festival (1‑4 July 2026, Ballenstedt, Harz) sold out its 25,000‑ticket capacity with a line‑up that included Kreator, Helloween, Doro and Avatar. Deichbrand opened on 16 July 2026 at the Cuxhaven/Nordholz sea‑airfield, drawing about 60,000 attendees and presenting acts such as Beatsteaks, Scooter, No Angels, Electric Callboy and Jet. Die Toten Hosen continued touring, adding an open‑air concert on 25 July 2026 at the Messegelände in Freiburg. Freiburg’s transport authority arranged extensive measures: tram line 4 was suspended after noon, frequencies on the Vauban‑Elsässer Straße segment were cut to 6 minutes, additional shuttle trams ran from 14:17, buses 10 and 36 were diverted and route 22 rerouted, and special trains returned fans after the show. The concert, billed as part of the “Trink Aus! Wir Müssen Gehen” farewell tour and marking the band’s 44th anniversary, drew an estimated 53,000 attendees despite 35 °C temperatures. Organisers highlighted accessibility provisions and warned fans to use official resale channels only. A separate sold‑out show took place on 27 June 2026 at Deutsche Bank Park. Organisers also announced a 2027 leg of the “Trink Aus!
