About this festival
Since 2014, DAVE – Dresden Audio Visual Experience – has taken over venues not usually used as club spaces each November: churches, museums and an observatory. Its 13th edition runs from 4 to 8 November 2026 across 14 venues in Dresden and Radebeul, including HELLERAU and Martin-Luther-Kirche. There is no festival ticket; tickets are sold separately for each event, while workshops and talks are free.
The festival opens on Wednesday at HELLERAU with Grand River, Abul Mogard, Myriam Bleau, PARA and elinah, spanning concerts and audiovisual installations. On Saturday, Cosmic Resonance at the Radebeul Observatory pairs ambient music with projections, before DAVE OFF! puts disco alongside Schranz. On Sunday, Beyond The Club brings TWO LANES and SIA MOAN to Martin-Luther-Kirche.
Across five days, club nights, concerts and radio sessions alternate, while the DJ Contest for emerging Dresden talent concludes at Koralle on Friday. Advance tickets for individual events start at €7 and range up to €32.
