Ahoi dear dreamers*!
The sails are taken down and the hatches closed for the cold season. At last, peace has arrived—a moment to process the wild summer, to reap its harvest, and to reflect. Now comes the time for campfires and deep inner work.
And while we were dreaming our way into the future together, we’ve already spotted the theme for the Bucht der Träumer* 2026 through our telescope — the banner under which we’ll gather with all of you next summer:
Right Here, Right Now!
Was braucht es, um wirklich voll und ganz im Moment zu sein? Und welche Möglichkeiten ergeben sich daraus, wenn wir uns von einem Moment zum nächsten dafür entscheiden, etwas zu verändern? Wir möchten mit euch das Potenzial von Ruhe, Präsenz und Aktion erforschen. In unserer Kombüse brodelt es bereits, um euch dazu einen entsprechend saftigen Serviervorschlag zusammenzustellen. Seid ihr bereit, mit uns den Sprung ins Hier und Jetzt zu wagen?
Bucht der Träumer* 2026 – 13.-17. August 2026
Ticket-Presale starts:

Tickets 2026
Across the entire festival scene, we are once again facing significant cost increases. The inflation of recent crisis years is still tangible for us — especially external services have become substantially more expensive. Against this backdrop, we see no way around making a slight upward adjustment to ticket prices so we can keep the festival on its feet. You can find the ticket prices now on our website.
For everyone means for everyone!
We know that festival prices were already a challenge for many in 2025. That’s why the Reduzini offer for people with lower incomes will remain in place for 2026 — to keep the festival as inclusive as possible.
For everyone who can or would like to contribute a little more, there is once again the option to support this offer through our Supporter Tickets. The surplus from these tickets goes directly into maintaining the Reduzini offer.
And for those who’d rather earn their ticket, the SupportA Base will once again open its doors in spring — so that truly everyone can be part of it!
What lies ahead for 2026?
We’ve reviewed the numbers, talked with our team, and carefully read through your feedback from the big guest survey — thank you to everyone who took part!
This year’s production has once again demanded everything from us. To keep the Bucht steady on course for the future, we want to further develop our structures and strengthen our team. This will help us maintain the high level of quality on and beyond the dance floors — without losing our balance along the way.
We want to avoid overloading the festival grounds and maintain the strong care capacity in areas like Awareness, Psycare, and First Aid. In addition, we aim to further improve the sanitary facilities across the site.
No Earth, No Cookies
And of course, sustainability remains a central focus that we want to keep driving forward — because without a healthy planet, there will eventually be little space left for festivals.
With your ticket for the Bucht, you make all of this possible — and more: you’re taking a stand for freedom instead of limitation, for collective dreaming instead of retreat, and for real, unfiltered community.
Thank you for being part of our Community!
