In an unprecedented milestone, SUMMER BREEZE Open Air proudly confirms that the 2026 edition is officially sold out—earlier than any year in the festival’s long and storied history. As of December 1st, all festival passes, including camping and full-event access, have been completely claimed. The organizers share their immense gratitude, calling the overwhelming demand “exceptional” and expressing heartfelt thanks to the global metal community for its unwavering trust and support.
The team behind SUMMER BREEZE emphasizes how deeply this early sell-out resonates. Each year brings new goals, new expectations, and new challenges, yet the 2026 rush has surpassed every prediction. With excitement building toward an unforgettable edition, the festival assures fans that while full-weekend tickets are gone, a limited number of day passes will be made available soon, with details to follow in the coming days.
For over two decades, SUMMER BREEZE has stood as Germany’s largest independent rock and metal festival, presenting more than 130 bands annually across the full spectrum of heavy music. From rising underground prospects to internationally renowned titans, the festival offers a home for fans of every subgenre—classic heavy metal, death metal, thrash, metalcore, hard rock, folk metal, and everything between. Drawing roughly 200,000 visitors across four and a half days, SUMMER BREEZE continues to cement its place as a cornerstone of the European festival landscape.
Despite its size and global reach, SUMMER BREEZE retains a uniquely welcoming atmosphere: short walking routes, fan-friendly camping, and relaxed bring-in rules create an experience that feels both massive and unmistakably communal. For many, attending has become a tradition—an annual gathering defined by music, camaraderie, and metal culture at its most vibrant. With 2026 already sold out, one thing is clear: SUMMER BREEZE remains more than a festival. It’s a homecoming.
The SUMMER BREEZE Open Air will take place August 12th–15th, 2026, in Dinkelsbühl, Bavaria, welcoming thousands of metalheads for four days of unrelenting music, community, and festival spirit.
