The new electronic festival of Saarland
With WASENBEATS, Saarland has had its own electronic open-air since 2025, making you want to dance. The venue is the Sauwasen in Püttlingen, a district in the Saarbrücken regional association — a spacious area that is perfectly suited for open-air concepts and multiple stages.
Three stages, 36 artists
The second edition in 2026 is growing significantly: Instead of two stages and 18 acts like at the premiere in 2025, there are now three stages and 36 artists. The Main Stage has also been expanded and offers more capacity for headliner sets. The musical spectrum ranges from EDM, Hardstyle, House, and Techno — meaning there are tracks for every taste in the electronic spectrum.
Headliners 2026: twocolors and FÄT TONY
The top acts of the 2026 edition:
- twocolors — the German Tropical House sensation, known for hits like „Lovefool”
- FÄT TONY — British Tech House star, one of the most charismatic DJs on the international scene
In addition, there are 34 other acts from Saarland, Rhineland-Palatinate, France, and internationally — many of them newcomers using WASENBEATS as a springboard.
SKINDRIVE — Germany's largest tattoo bus
A special feature: SKINDRIVE, Germany's largest tattoo bus, will be on site. Anyone who wants to leave the festival with a special souvenir can get one done on site — a festival quirk that originates from the Dutch festival scene and finds a new stage in Saarland.
Saarland dances
With around 3,000 visitors at the 2025 premiere, WASENBEATS is still a mid-range festival — but the growth of the second edition suggests that it could develop into one of the more important electronic festivals in the greater region in the medium term. A welcome home game for the people of Saarland and the club scene from Saarbrücken, Forbach, and Saarlouis.
Discover Püttlingen
Püttlingen is easily accessible by public transport from Saarbrücken. Worth seeing: the historic city center and the nearby industrial monument Völklinger Hütte (15 km), one of Germany's most important UNESCO World Heritage sites.
