On August 15th, 2025, we are organizing the first edition of Sommerloch, a one-day event with a beautifully diverse lineup. Location is a beautiful farm in Wallerode in East Belgium, with two stages that delve into experiment as well as downright wayward summer vibes.
 
On the bill are:
 
Good Sad Happy Bad – Chunky – Naomie Klaus – Samizdat – Violet Heat – Jabu – M I M I – Ernst Reijsiger & Hans P. Kjorstadt – DJ soFa – Fog Puma – Pangea – Simsaara – Cosmo
 
Check the Sommerloch website for detailed artist info, accommodation and camping options, travel possibilities, and more soon. We are once again setting up a bus service from Brussels and back! A combi-ticket for the bus and the entrance fee for Sommerloch is a mere 50 euros, with no booking fee to be paid. The bus will pick up people in Brussels and drive straight to the farm in Wallerode, and will bring everyone back safely immediately when the event is over.
 
SOMMERLOCH, WALLERODE, BELGIUM, 15.08.2025
Come summer comes a new project, a new idea. Sommerloch is a one-day event with two stages at the beautiful Hof Gut Eidt in Wallerode, Belgium, some three kilometers from the town of Sankt Vith. The farm sports the perfect conditions for an event like this, with a big barn where concerts will be held and a beautiful meadow with beautiful old trees where we will set up a second stage. From 1999 to 2002, we curated the electronic music program for the Alive Festival right around the corner from this very location, with the then lineup featuring 808 State, A Guy Called Gerald, Speedy J, Swayzak, Robert Hood, Prefuse 73, and many more.
 
CAMPING AND ACCOMMODATION
Those who visited the Weekender Festival in 2023 might remember the farm and its beautiful location right on the Ravel bike path as one of the camping sites of the festival. Sommerloch visitors can camp for free in the field of the farm. The farm itself has showers and toilets available. Although a one-day event, people are allowed to camp for two nights. There are bed-and-breakfasts and hotels around in the neighboring town of Sankt Vith. The Sommerloch website will provide an overview of all accommodation options available.
 
HOW TO GET THERE
We are setting up a bus transfer from Brussels to Sommerloch after the successful bus experiment we did for our party at Open Ground in Wuppertal. Tickets for the bus are available in the webshop of the Sommerloch website. If we do not manage to fill up the bus, we reserve ourselves the right to cancel the trip. In this case, the bus fare will be transferred back without any fees or expenses. The bus will leave Brussels in the afternoon of the 15th and will drive back when the event is over, at 3 AM. Although our shuttle bus will of course be the most comfortable way to travel, for those of you taking the train, you can take the Ostend-Eupen line, get out in Eupen and there take bus 23 to Wallerode. People coming by car should take the E42 highway which passes only a few kilometers from Wallerode.
 
More information about Sommerloch and all practicalities is coming soon, so stay tuned! See you in deep summer!
