Event Details
What is Geldern Olé?
Geldern Olé is the Olé Party Tour's stop at Waldfreibad Walbeck near Geldern, an unusual venue: on what's billed as the "smallest forest stage in the world", set inside an outdoor pool in the border forest with the Netherlands, more than 80,000 concertgoers have seen artists including Johannes Oerding and Die Fantastischen Vier since 2019. The spacious grounds around the stage also offer room for a sunbathing lawn, food trucks and quiet spots away from the crowd.

Geldern Olé takes place on Saturday, 21 August 2027. In previous years the event started at 12:00 PM; a similar schedule is expected for 2027, though exact times should be confirmed on oleparty.de closer to the date.

Where does Geldern Olé take place?
The venue is Waldfreibad Walbeck, Am Freibad 24, 47608 Geldern, in the Walbeck district. The "Waldfreibad Geldern" bus stop is about a 5 minute walk from the main entrance; bus line 35 runs directly from Geldern train station to the site.

Who is playing Geldern Olé 2027?
The 2027 line up had not been officially confirmed at the time of research. In the previous year's edition, top acts included Isi Glück, Lorenz Büffel and Mia Julia, and the festival drew around 5,000 visitors in 2026. A similar programme can be expected for 2027 once the Olé Party Tour announces its line up.
How much do Geldern Olé tickets cost?
A fixed ticket price for 2027 had not been published at the time of research. In the 2026 edition, tickets started at around 41.90 euros; this figure serves as a guide until official 2027 prices are released. Guests using a wheelchair, rollator or walking aid need a so called B Ticket for the limited seating area, available only in advance alongside a disability entry ticket with proof, and in limited quantity. Tickets are available via oleparty.de and Eventim, among others.
Visitor Tips for Waldfreibad Walbeck
- Bring cash, as not all stands on site accept card payment.
- Re-entry after leaving the grounds is not possible, since tickets are non-transferable and lose their validity once you leave.
- Not allowed on site include bags and backpacks larger than A4, outside food and drinks, umbrellas, helmets, folding stools and bulky seating (explicitly banned due to tripping hazards in an evacuation), weapons, pyrotechnics, laser pointers, selfie sticks, drones, and animals other than registered guide dogs.
- Travel by public transport, bike or on foot where possible, as parking can be limited depending on weather conditions.
- Buy tickets only through official channels such as oleparty.de or Eventim, and avoid buying from individuals directly at the entrance.
