The full line-up for Stone Techno Festival 2026 has landed. From 10th to 12th July, more than 100 artists return to the exceptional UNESCO World Heritage Zollverein in Essen for three days of intensity, bliss and genuine connections. With the expansion of the festival site and the new dedicated listening floor, the concept moves into a deeper layer of experience.
Through the newly established Curation Series, we aim to build stronger bonds with the artist, the audience and communities. Forming synergies through creativity and a unique artistic vision, the idea is more than just curating a floor and a record; it strives to leave a lasting impression on the collective memory throughout the extended weekend.
STF26 represents our most personal vision of contemporary electronic music, honouring our roots while expanding the musical spectrum beyond the traditional formulas. All ticket categories and shuttle bus tickets are now available through the link in our bio. The daytime festival is already 66% sold out, and the night events are 50% sold out.
