Electrisize Festival Returns With Turbo Takeover and Fireworks as the 2026 Edition Brings Artist Signings, New Areas, Valley of Sound and 55,000 Visitors to Haus Hohenbusch.

Electrisize Festival returns from August 7 to 9, bringing the 2026 edition back to the historic grounds of Haus Hohenbusch near Dusseldorf. Presented by 1LIVE, Europe’s second largest youth radio station, the festival is expecting 55,000 visitors for a weekend built around new experiences, expanded stage production, artist signings and fireworks across all three days.

More than 150 artists will play across the three day event, covering EDM, hardstyle, techno and Mallorca party anthems. This year’s lineup includes Alle Farben, Brennan Heart, Showtek, David Puentez, Eko Fresh and Mia Julia, alongside rising names OSWALD and Yung Saint Paul, both featured on the 2026 New Music Hotlist. They join Gestört aber GeiL, Glockenbach, Paul Elstak and Kati K to round out the bill.

Meet the Artists Up Close

Festival founders Raphael Meyersieck and Michael Frentzen are introducing a handful of new experiences this year. For the first time, fans will get the chance to meet their favorite artists in person through dedicated Artist Signing Sessions, collecting autographs and photos to remember the weekend by. There’s also a new Ferris Wheel Flat Rate giving guests unlimited rides and sunset views all weekend long, and for those craving a cold beer with some rock energy, the new pub “The Thunder” offers a campfire setting built for tribute bands and karaoke nights.

Winter Vibes in the Middle of Summer

Austria’s Valley of Sound is bringing its own stage to Haus Hohenbusch for all three days, adding a mountain inspired setup to the festival site during the summer weekend. Another new addition is The Source, an area tucked into nature and designed around yoga, music and mindfulness, giving festivalgoers a place to reset before heading back to the stages. The main stage production is also expanding this year, with lights, lasers and fireworks running across all three festival days instead of just one.

Turbo Takeover on the Mainstage

Electrisize’s Turbo Stage continues to be the home base for singalongs and Mallorca party hits, with artists like Calvin Kleinen, Caro Winter, Eko Fresh, Frenzy, Kreisligalegende and Van Keeken bringing the confetti and party focused sets attendees expect. Friday kicks off with a special Turbo Takeover as Frenzy and Rumbombe bring Turbo straight to the Mainstage, while Sunday closes out with Mia Julia taking over the Mainstage to wrap the weekend.

Beating the Summer Heat

Electrisize has come prepared for high temperatures, with free drinking water, complimentary sunscreen, shaded areas, sun sails and multiple chill out zones spread across the grounds. Water cannons will help cool down the crowd, and thanks to the festival’s partnership with Valley of Sound in Austria, snow machines can even be activated across the site if temperatures rise during the weekend.

Non Stop Action at Electricity

The Electrisize campsite, known as Electricity, comes with its own schedule of activities, from the Runners Club on Friday morning and the After Runners Club Party that follows, to Beer Yoga, Shuffle and Hakken workshops, Beer Pong tournaments and a full lineup of DJ sets. Paved walkways connect the campsite to the festival grounds, and campers can look forward to complimentary premium showers and sanitary facilities, along with a 24/7 supermarket stocked with Dutch snacks and camping essentials.
