GLÜCKSGEFÜHLE Festival

The 2025 edition marked the final breakthrough and the establishment of the GLÜCKSGEFÜHLE Festival as Germany's biggest music festival. The festival industry accepted its self-proclaimed status — ticket pre-sales sold out in spring, camping areas fully booked, international pop, rap, and EDM stars on the three stages. The infrastructure of the Hockenheimring with its grandstands, wide asphalt areas, and camping sites once again proved to be the ideal festival stage. Over 250,000 festival guests over the four days, a volume that only Rock am Ring and Wacken typically reach in Germany. The town of Hockenheim and the entire Rhine-Neckar region benefited massively — hotels in Speyer, Schwetzingen, and Mannheim were fully booked for weeks. The conditions for the 4th edition in 2026 with David Guetta, Ayliva, Mark Forster, Marteria, Scooter, Boris Brejcha, and Hardwell as headliners were thus ideal.
