30 YEARS OF KIESGRUBE: EUROPE’S LONGEST RUNNING OPEN-AIR CLUB UNVEILS FULL 2026 SEASON

Jamie Jones, Joseph Capriati, Peggy Gou, The Martinez Brothers, Amelie Lens, Maceo Plex, Sven Väth, Dixon B2B Jimi Jules & more are all confirmed to play.

In 2026, Kiesgrube celebrates 30 years as one of Europe’s longest-standing open-air electronic music venues. Since 1996, it has operated as a weekly open-air event, a format that has allowed it to remain a constant presence on the European circuit. Three decades on, the venue has been reimagined and rebuilt, with a brand-new L-Acoustics sound system and expanded dance areas for 2026 season.

“Over the last three decades, Kiesgrube has remained independent, defined by its raw, unfiltered connection between artist and audience”, says founder Tom Preuss. “For the 30th anniversary, our intention is to protect this spirit while preparing it for the decades ahead. Not only for Düsseldorf, but for the wider European dance music community.”

There is hardly a global electronic music heavyweight who has not played Kiesgrube over the years, but the venue has never been about names alone. It’s about the feeling that has always brought like-minded people together from around the world to gather each Sunday. That is reflected in this special season to mark its 30-year anniversary from April through August, culminating in a landmark closing celebration.

The 30th anniversary season kicks off on Sunday April 19, with a Pre-Opening Open Air led by Maceo Plex. The official Opening on Friday May 01 sees global icon Peggy Gou headline alongside Dennis Cruz, while May continues at full intensity with and WhoMadeWho on May 14, followed by a heavyweight pairing of Pawsa on May 25. Early summer reaches another peak on June 14 as Black Coffee returns, joined by, before techno takes centre stage on June 21 with Amelie Lens. Late June delivers one of the most anticipated highlights of the season on June 28, as Jamie Jones and The Martinez Brothers lead an all-star showcase alongside Vintage Culture and Paco Osuna. July continues with a landmark appearance from Cocoon legend Sven Väth on July 12, and he shares the bill with Dixon B2B Jimi Jules. The early August Weekender brings Mahmut Orhan across both outdoor and indoor formats while mid-August welcomes Boris Brejcha and Andrea Oliva. The 30-year celebrations culminate on Sunday August 30 with a monumental Season Closing featuring Joseph Capriati b2b Mau P.

Located in western Germany and within reach of Cologne, Düsseldorf and the wider NRW region, it has become a cornerstone of European club culture and a place of musical immersion set within raw, natural surroundings. As part of the 30-year renovations, the venue is planning a brand new restaurant concept, a dedicated food area and upgraded digital infrastructure improvements designed to elevate the experience while keeping the club’s spirit intact. The sprawling site delivers Ibiza-inspired open-air energy with sand underfoot, green trees overhead and a dance floor to remove the usual barriers between headliner and crowd. The audio-visual setup is high-spec and high impact, and the closeness of DJ and dancers creates an intensity rarely found elsewhere.

Thirty years on, Kiesgrube remains what it has always been: a sanctuary for electronic music lovers under the sun and the stars.

MIGRANT OPENS 2026 CATALOGUE WITH POWERFUL NEW SINGLE “FEEL THE BEAT”

For his first release of the year, Migrant delivers a dynamic house release built on deep staccato basslines, hypnotic vocals and immersive synth work.

Renowned electronic music producer and DJ Migrant launches into 2026 with "Feel The Beat", a commanding new house record that Out now, the track blends powerful club energy with atmospheric depth, delivering a sound designed for both peak-time dancefloors and introspective listening moments.

Built around rolling, staccato basslines and tightly programmed rhythmic grooves, “Feel The Beat” establishes an immediate sense of movement. Hypnotic vocal samples weave through the arrangement, acting as both rhythmic elements and emotional anchors, while mesmerising synth arpeggios create texture and tension across the track’s evolving structure. The production balances power with restraint, allowing each sonic element to breathe while maintaining a relentless forward drive.

At the heart of the record lies a pensive, atmospheric breakdown; a moment of reflection that contrasts with the track’s kinetic energy before returning to its full-bodied groove. This interplay between intensity and introspection highlights Migrant’s growing confidence as a producer, emphasizing musical storytelling as much as dancefloor impact.

The single follows a creatively expansive 2025 for Migrant, during which he explored a wide spectrum of sounds – from spiritual and meditative textures to bass-driven club experimentation – culminating in his deeply personal release “Tarase”. That project, inspired by the fragile beauty of India’s Aravalli mountain range, emphasized themes of preservation, culture, and connection, and included a site-specific performance within the landscape itself. These experiences helped shape a more intentional artistic identity moving forward, with a clearer sonic focus rooted in rhythm, emotion, and atmosphere.

As his first single of 2026, “Feel The Beat” marks the beginning of this next phase; one defined by purposeful production choices, stronger rhythmic signatures, and a deeper commitment to the dancefloor as both a physical and emotional space. With its bold sonic palette and immersive energy, the release sets the tone for what promises to be a focused and ambitious year ahead.
