Three days of food trucks from around the world, DJ sets, and festival vibes in the heart of Krefeld city centre – free entry
The "Street Food & Music Festival" format has been a firm fixture in Krefeld's city centre season for years. Organiser JUST Festivals Event Media GmbH tours with the concept through several German cities; the Krefeld date is considered one of the larger ones. The focus is on a simple idea: Food trucks from around the world meet cool DJs, right in the city centre, with no entry fee.
The Street Food & Music Festival 2026 runs from Friday, May 8th to Sunday, May 10th, 2026, on Dionysiusplatz in Krefeld city centre. Opening hours: Friday 2:00 PM–10:00 PM, Saturday and Sunday 12:00 PM–10:00 PM.
Three days of open-air atmosphere with the following components:
Three headliner slots structure the musical side of the festival:
The DJs play multi-hour sets, the transition between lunch, sundowner, and evening party is seamless.
Dionysiusplatz is located directly in Krefeld's city centre, a five-minute walk from the main train station, connecting Ostwall and Rheinstraße. The square is regularly used for city festivals and open-air events in the summer. The surrounding buildings and trees provide pleasant acoustics and shaded spots – ideal for a three-day street food festival.
With approximately 230,000 inhabitants, Krefeld is one of the ten largest cities in North Rhine-Westphalia and the seat of an independent administrative district. The former world capital of silk processing today maintains a lively city centre life, with city festivals, the Lower Rhine Carnival, and several street food and music festivals in spring and summer.
The 2026 edition of the Street Food & Music Festival will be held from Friday, May 8th to Sunday, May 10th, 2026, on Dionysiusplatz. The organiser is JUST Festivals Event Media GmbH.
