What makes Haldern Pop Festival special?
Since 1984, Haldern Pop Festival has stood for a very personal and intimate atmosphere away from the big festival stages. Attendance is deliberately capped at around 7,000 guests, creating a close connection between audience and artists. The program moves between indie, folk and more experimental sounds; the festival previously won the Helga! Festival Award for Best Booking.
Who is playing at Haldern Pop Festival 2027?
The lineup for 2027 has not been announced yet; first artist names are typically revealed in spring. Past editions have featured acts such as Black Country New Road, Sportfreunde Stiller and The Notwist.
How much do tickets cost?
Official ticket prices for 2027 have not been confirmed and will be published alongside the presale launch on 1 October 2026. In previous years, a full festival ticket including camping cost around 195 euros in presale.
How do you get to the festival?
Haldern is located near Wesel and is reachable by car as well as by bus and train. Since a significant share of a festival's carbon footprint comes from travel, organizers explicitly recommend carpooling or public transport.
