WHOLE Festival

Ferropolis, the City of Iron near Gräfenhainichen, will once again become a meeting point for the international queer rave scene in 2027, when WHOLE Festival takes place from 30 July to 2 August. The open-air site on Lake Gremmin in Saxony-Anhalt brings together electronic music, art, performance and community. Techno and house sit alongside more experimental sounds between the monumental open-cast mining excavators, with several stages spread across the expansive industrial site.

WHOLE Festival combines music and camping, with guests staying directly on site. The industrial setting on Lake Gremmin provides the backdrop for a programme featuring art installations, performances and spaces for the queer community as well as music. Gräfenhainichen in the Wittenberg district is the starting point for travelling to the festival.

The 2027 edition runs for four days, pairing driving electronic styles with a strong sense of community. Further programme details and performing acts will be added for this edition.
