How Cologne's Festival Season Works
Die Festivalsaison rund um Cologne läuft von Mai bis September, mit den dichtesten Wochenenden im Juli und August. 2026-Lineups verteilen sich auf Open-Air-Gelände, Stadtfeste und Sommer-Bühnen — Promoter wie FKP Scorpio, Goodlive und regionale Veranstalter routen Headliner durch die Region. Wochenend-Tickets sind gestaffelt: Early-Bird-Pässe kommen 4 bis 6 Monate vorher heraus, regulär dann mit 20 bis 40 Prozent Aufschlag. Tagestickets werden meist freigegeben, sobald die Daily-Splits feststehen.
