Event Details

Every summer, thousands of black-clad music lovers transform the airfield in Hildesheim into one of Europe’s most unique festival experiences. M’era Luna Festival returns in 2026, once again bringing together the very best of gothic rock, industrial, EBM, darkwave, synthpop, metal and alternative culture for a weekend unlike any other.

More than just a music festival, M’era Luna is a celebration of a global community. Spectacular fashion, elaborate Victorian outfits, cyber-goth creations and classic black attire are as much a part of the event as the music itself, creating an unforgettable atmosphere from the moment the gates open.

Across two stages, internationally acclaimed headliners share the spotlight with rising stars, offering a carefully curated lineup that embraces both legendary acts and exciting newcomers. Between concerts, visitors can explore the extensive medieval market, alternative shopping area, food stalls and countless opportunities to meet like-minded fans from around the world.

And with a lineup that perfectly captures the spirit of M’era Luna, 2026 is set to be another unforgettable chapter in the festival’s history. From the symphonic grandeur of Within Temptation and the medieval metal spectacle of In Extremo to the timeless synth-pop of OMD, the dark romanticism of Lacrimosa and the electrifying performances of IAMX, there’s something for every corner of the alternative scene. Add iconic names such as Front Line Assembly, The 69 Eyes, Clan of Xymox, White Lies, Combichrist and Saltatio Mortis, and you’ve got a weekend packed with legendary performances and exciting discoveries. Whether you’re there to sing along, dance until sunrise or simply immerse yourself in the unmistakable M’era Luna atmosphere, this year’s lineup offers every reason to make the pilgrimage to Hildesheim this August.
