Waldstock 2025 – Review

In 2025, Waldstock e.V. once again transformed Pegnitz's Schloßberg into a free festival stage. The family-friendly free open-air festival attracted a large audience from Upper Franconia and all of Bavaria, as it does every year.

2025 Program

Following the tried-and-tested concept, Friday evening offered calmer sounds (folk, singer-songwriter, jazz, world-pop), while Saturday, the main day, featured the most packed program with regional acts and international newcomers from the indie, rock, and alternative scene. Admission and camping were free, as always. The festival once again confirmed its reputation as one of Bavaria's largest free open-air events.

  • Free admission and free camping
  • Friday: Folk/Singer-Songwriter evening
