Program & Schedule: What to Expect in 2027
Winterbeats is a single indoor night, not a multi-day ski open-air. Doors have typically opened at 19:30. In 2026, free ice skating on the second rink ran until about 23:00. The opening show usually starts close to midnight, followed by headliners on the Laserdome main stage. Parallel rooms – Snowstorm (harder styles), Antarktiswave (techno), Polarlicht (Goa/trance) and Hot & Dirty (hip-hop/R&B) – run into the early morning, with the event advertised until around 05:00.
The 2027 lineup and running order had not been released. Use the last editions as a guide: EDM, hardtechno, hardstyle, trance and black music, plus the Action Zone. Check winterbeats.de and official social channels as soon as the date and artists are confirmed.

Visitor Tips: Travel & Accommodation in Ingolstadt
- Travel: Take ICE/RE to Ingolstadt Hauptbahnhof, then bus line 52 to Saturn-Arena. By car use exit Ingolstadt/Süd; navigate to Südliche Ringstraße 64 or Bei der Arena 4. Use the on-site parking garage.
- Weather and dress: February nights outside can be cold, the hall is warm. Wear layers, comfortable dance shoes (and socks for skate hire), ear protection and a light jacket for the outdoor area.
- Stay: Book hotels in the old town or near the station early; festival weekends sell out. The arena sits south-east of the centre and is an easy bus ride from downtown.
- Ice skating: If the second rink returns in 2027, go before midnight and bring sturdy socks for rental skates.
- On site: Buy official tickets only, keep your wristband, expect cashless payments in the arena, and plan a night-bus, taxi or hotel shuttle for the 05:00 finish.
