Gott sei Punk Festival

Edition 2025 — Gott sei Punk
2025 Review
In 2025, the festival once again relied on the proven formula: two stages at the Docks and the adjacent Prinzenbar, over ten bands from the German-speaking punk scene, and a concluding punk rock karaoke. The audience largely consisted of the established Northern German punk scene, supplemented by a younger St. Pauli crowd. Advance tickets were around €35, similar to previous years.
St. Pauli, in the Hamburg-Mitte district, has been a central hub for German-speaking punk since the 1980s. Gott sei Punk upholds this tradition with an annual, compact genre night that keeps the scene alive.
