When and where is Extrema Outdoor 2027?
Extrema Outdoor returns to De Plas in Houthalen Helchteren, Belgium, from 14 to 16 May 2027. The festival site sits in the heart of a dense forest surrounding a clear lake, with seven stages, called "Districts", spread across the grounds. Since its first edition in 2011, Extrema has grown into one of Belgium's leading electronic music festivals, welcoming around 40,000 visitors.
What can visitors expect from the program?
For three days, Extrema Outdoor is all about house and techno, bringing together international headliners and rising talent across the seven lakeside and forest Districts. Past editions have featured artists such as Adam Beyer, Amelie Lens, Charlotte de Witte, Claptone, Dixon, Eric Prydz, I Hate Models, Richie Hawtin and Sven Väth. The official 2027 lineup has not been announced yet; this page will be updated as soon as new names are confirmed.

How much do tickets cost?
Ticket prices for 2027 have not been officially announced yet. The organizer has only opened a sign up list for "Super Early Bird" tickets, offering a 50 euro discount once sales open. Based on previous editions, tickets are typically released in waves with rising prices (day tickets, weekend tickets and camping combo tickets), so booking early usually means paying less.
