Airbeat One

Germany's biggest dance festival

At Germany's biggest dance festival, all those who like to dance to electronic beats with like-minded people all night long are in good hands. The Airbeat takes place this year from 12 - 16 July.

How does it feel to stand on Germany's biggest stage and throw a cake into one of 55,000 techno faces? Only star DJ Steve Aoki knows that, and he also indulges in this tradition on his visits to Airbeat One. At least nobody has to shove to get to front row - because "in front" is actually everywhere along the 130 meter wide show area. These are mystical pictures when the crowd is illuminated by the colourful disco lights at dawn above the airfield in Neustadt-Glewe. 

Pure festival feeling

In addition to the music, you can experience the adrenalin rush on one of the rides or take a tour on the Giant Ferris Wheel with a view over the festival grounds. In addition, the numerous food trucks on the festival grounds make sure that you don't lack anything.

 

More information about the festival and its line-up can be found here.
