WILHELMSHAVEN LEBT! — The Deutschrap Festival

Deutschrap on the Festival Stage

WILHELMSHAVEN LEBT! is one of the biggest Deutschrap festivals of summer 2026 in Northern Germany. With Capital Bra and Samra as headliners, two giants of the German rap scene will be on stage. Capital Bra has been one of the most successful artists in the German charts for years, and Samra has built his own fanbase with hits like “Adriana” and “Wieder lila”. Their live shows are energetic and attract a young, attentive audience from the entire region.

Broad Lineup and Local Talents

The lineup is deliberately broad. Lacaeztte, Schwesta Ewa, Saliou, Zymba and Ataypapi represent different currents of the German rap scene — from hard street rap beats to melodic hooks. In addition, the festival explicitly includes local talents: HzumZ, AzumT and Robby come from the Wilhelmshaven scene and use the big stage as a springboard. The connection between international stars and regional acts is a central concept of WILHELMSHAVEN LEBT!.

Festplatz am Sportforum and Sparkasse as Sponsor

The festival takes place on the spacious Festplatz am Sportforum, which has established itself as the main stage for major open-air concerts in Wilhelmshaven in 2026. Sparkasse Wilhelmshaven is the main sponsor, underscoring the region's commitment to a modern, young audience. With admission at 12 p.m. and start at 2 p.m., the festival is designed as a day event.
