Summer Breeze Festival 2026 Gears Up for a Grand Return
The annual metal extravaganza, the Summer Breeze Festival, is set to return in 2026, promising another unforgettable event for music enthusiasts. The festival, held at the Aeroclub Dinkelsbühl airport in Germany, is not only the largest metal festival in Franconia but also in all of southern Germany.
The organisers kicked off ticket sales for the 2026 event on August 18, 2025, at 6 PM. The Early Bird Pre-Sale Phase, offering tickets at a discounted price of 199.99 euros, will come to an end on September 8, 2025. After this phase, the ticket price for the festival will gradually increase. The highest price for a ticket to the Summer Breeze Festival 2026 is 249.99 euros.
The organisers have already announced some exciting news. Over 20,000 tickets for the 2026 festival had already been sold within a few hours, indicating a strong demand for the event. The first 50 bands for the festival have been announced, with a total of 130 bands scheduled to perform. Among the headliners, Helloween is expected to put on a "giant show" in August 2026, as they currently celebrate their 40th anniversary.
The Summer Breeze Festival 2026 is scheduled to take place from August 12 to 15. The organisers are optimistic about another successful event, following the great success of the festival despite the heat and storm warning in 2025. In fact, the 2025 and 2024 events were sold out.
However, as of now, there are no available line-up details for the Summer Breeze Festival 2027. The most recent information is only for the 2026 festival, which had Lamb Of God as a headliner.
As ticket sales continue to soar, with over 25,000 tickets sold as of August 20, 2025, at 1 PM, it's clear that the Summer Breeze Festival 2026 is shaping up to be another memorable event for metal music lovers. Stay tuned for more updates!
