OFF DAYS Hamburg

A Concept Festival in Two Cities

OFF DAYS is a curated concert series that will debut in Hamburg and Berlin in the summer of 2026. The two evenings will take place on consecutive days — Hamburg on August 18th, Berlin on August 19th — sharing the line-up and concept. Instead of a classic multi-stage festival, OFF DAYS is a single, focused concert event for a more intimate audience.

Stadtpark Open-Air Stage — A Hamburg Institution

The venue is the Freilichtbühne im Stadtpark at Saarlandstraße 73 in the Winterhude district. The stage is one of Hamburg's most venerable open-air concert venues and has hosted rock, pop, and indie concerts for decades. The Stadtpark as a backdrop — old beech trees, water features, a light-filled park — creates the specific Hamburg summer atmosphere that other concert stages cannot deliver.

Blood Orange as Headliner

Confirmed as headliner is Blood Orange — the project of Dev Hynes, a British singer-songwriter, producer, and composer who blends Pop, R&B, and Soul with cinematic elegance. Blood Orange's albums (Cupid Deluxe, Freetown Sound, Negro Swan) are among the most acclaimed R&B releases of the 2010s. Further acts will be announced in the months leading up to the concert.

Pop, R&B, Alternative, Electronic

The genre bracket is deliberately broad: Pop, R&B, Alternative, and Electronic. Those who appreciate Blood Orange will understand the spectrum — from soul-infused R&B and melancholic synth-pop productions to danceable electronic music. It is precisely this curated character that distinguishes OFF DAYS from mixed mega-festivals.

Concert with Seated Arrangement

The open-air stage has approximately 3,000 seats. The intimate atmosphere — compared to stadium concerts — and the warm August evening ambiance are part of the appeal of this event. Tickets are distributed via Ticketmaster, and pre-sales are ongoing.
