Tip
Come during the day: the hemp maze is most impressive in daylight. Don't forget blankets and sun protection — the field offers no natural shade. Food is available on site (hemp burgers, hemp ice cream, vegetarian and vegan options).
Reggae im Hanffeld — A Festival Like No Other
In the middle of the small district town of Steinheim, at Lipper Tor 6, the regional industrial hemp product specialist Hanf-Zeit operates a functional industrial hemp field. In midsummer, the hemp grows to about three meters high — and it is precisely then that the field becomes a stage for a unique open-air festival once every summer.
Reggae im Hanffeld has been organized since 2015 by Junge Kultur Steinheim e.V. in cooperation with Hanf-Zeit. The idea: Reggae, Dub, and Ska acts play on a stage set up right at the edge of the hemp field. A hemp maze winds around it, allowing visitors to experience the plant in its full size.
Conceptual Connection: Music + Education
The festival is not just a music event but combines three strands:
- Live Music — international Reggae, Roots, Dub, Dancehall, and Ska artists
- Information and Sales Booths — Hanf-Zeit and partner companies showcase hemp products (food, cosmetics, textiles, CBD products) and provide information about the industrial plant
- Children's Program and Hemp Maze — the association ensures family-friendliness; the maze is accessible during the day
"A Bit of Woodstock in Steinheim"
The *Neue Westfälische* once described the festival as "a bit of Woodstock in Steinheim" — referring to the relaxed, mixed atmosphere on the green meadow by the hemp field. Visitors come with blankets and folding chairs, many stay the entire afternoon and evening.
Steinheim — Small Town in the Höxter District
Steinheim is located in southeastern North Rhine-Westphalia, in the Kreis Höxter (Ostwestfalen-Lippe). The town is small (around 13,000 inhabitants), but the festival attracts reggae fans from all over the Weserbergland and beyond. Travel via B252 (Paderborn-Höxter axis) or by regional train to Steinheim station (short walk to the festival grounds at Lipper Tor).
Organizer: Junge Kultur Steinheim e.V.
The association Junge Kultur Steinheim e.V. organizes cultural formats beyond the mainstream in the small town. Reggae im Hanffeld is its flagship event; in addition, there are concerts, film nights, and discussion formats. The collaboration with Hanf-Zeit (based in Steinheim) guarantees the unique venue.
History
The first edition took place in 2015. Due to the pandemic, the festival took a four-year break — the 2023 edition marked the restart after a long pause. The 2025 edition took place on July 19th. The continuation of the now annual rhythm is planned for 2026; the organizer will publish the exact date in good time on its website and Facebook page.
