Program & Schedule: What to Expect in 2027

Schall im Schilf is a one-day open-air that combines a day by the lake with driving beats and a relaxed natural atmosphere. Gates usually open at 12:00, the main programme runs into the night and then transitions seamlessly into the aftershow. The 2027 lineup is still to be announced (tba.) but will follow the proven mix of established international names and emerging local talent. Visual artists create atmospheric light and video art that blends harmoniously with the reed and lake landscape. Free re-entry allows you to take a refreshing swim in the lake at any time.
