In the 21st year of its existence, the festival is entering its 19th round and brings new and old artists, musicians and makers of the global Gothic Pogo family together again in one place, back home to Werk 2.
Live concerts can be visited on three days between May 21st and 25th and international party areas on all five days. Everything between Deathrock, Post-Punk, Electropunk and Minimal Wave will be there again. Decorations, visuals, smaller and larger specials and collaborations are waiting for you.
As always, the important thing is: a good time for all people, in a free space where they can celebrate together peacefully, respectfully and above all with joy.
Punk is support, not competition.
From the scene, with the scene, for the scene!
