Reeperbahn Festival

The Reeperbahn Festival will once again present a colourful programme from 16 - 19 September 2026. The four-day festival offers visitors a variety of musical and pop-cultural events in around 70 venues. Upcoming artists are put in the spotlight around the Reeperbahn.

The Reeperbahn Festival will take place in Hamburg from 16 to 19 September 2026. If you would like to secure tickets for this popular festival now, you can find them here.

This is what the Reeperbahn Festival has to offer

The festival's music programme offers concerts for every taste, with genres ranging from indie, pop, rock, folk, singer-songwriter, electronic, hip-hop, soul, jazz and classical.

Bon Iver, Jake Bugg, Cro, Casper, Biffy Clyro, Boy or Ed Sheeran - all these names not only have several chart successes in common, but also that they thrilled the audience on the stages of the Reeperbahn Festival shortly before their big breakthrough. Whoever plays on Hamburg's Kiez in September, as the last few years have shown, has a good chance of soon filling the great halls of this world.

So it's no wonder that the Reeperbahn Festival, as Europe's biggest club festival, is now one of the world's most important events in the music industry. In recent years, for example, the international music prize ANCHOR has been awarded to the best live act at the festival. So fans and visitors can be curious who will be the successor of the festival award first runner-up. The award ceremony usually takes place as a crowning finale on the last day of the festival.

The Reeperbahn Festival is guided by diversity, sustainability and gender equality. The festival is a founding member of the Keychange initiative and campaigns worldwide for a 50/50 gender quota at festivals and in music organisations.
