Electronic Mega-Event at Allgäu Airport

The Ikarus Festival is one of the largest electronic music festivals in Southern Germany. The venue is Allgäu Airport Memmingen, a former military airfield in the municipality of Memmingerberg in the district of Unterallgäu, right in the heart of Bavaria. Over three festival days, around 120,000 ravers are expected, along with more than 150 acts on eight stages.

Eight Stages, Many Sound Worlds

The music genres range from House and Techno to Hard Techno and Hardstyle, Psytrance, Hardcore, and EDM. Each stage has its own character: the Olymp Stage is the main stage, the Minos Tent (curated by Contact) is dedicated to Techno, and the Nox Stage (Hardshift) to Hardstyle and Hardcore. The Forest Stage focuses on melodic sounds, the Hade Cage on Hard Techno, and the Medusa Jungle on Psytrance. Additionally, there's the Onos Shelter for hybrid rave and other performance areas.

Ikarus is a classic camping festival: the campsite, covering over 200,000 square meters, opens on Thursday, offering Basic, Comfort, Caravan, and a new Car Camping area. On-site facilities include a beverage market, a supermarket, and workshops. Payment is entirely cashless. Even helicopter sightseeing flights over the festival grounds are offered.
