When spring breaks through its winter rest and everything awakens, we gather for the start of our open-air season. On 25 April, PollerWiesen Opening 2026 brings us together at Cologne’s beloved Jugendpark to celebrate longer days, rising temperatures and the feeling we all share: being outside and embracing what we love 🧡

The Jugendpark in Cologne is located on a promontory at the rhine-riverside north the Zoobrücke in the district Mülheim. Grassland, beach sections and open space with about 30000qm area makes this park a perfect place for PollerWiesen.
There's the possibility of parking your car right underneath Zoobrücke next to the entrance to Jugendpark. The parking spaces are limited.
When water, sunlight and sound meet, summer feels complete. On July 12, PollerWiesen Boat 2026 takes us along the Rhine for our final chapter of the season - a day on the river filled with music, movement and the unmistakable feeling of being together 💙

The MS RheinMagie has a 2000qm effective surface which makes it the biggest event-ship in europe. With it's in- and outdoor area the PollerWiesen boat is forearmed to any weather. Of course the boat also sets sail and ships down the Rhein, one of Germany's biggest rivers.
To get to the Bastei you need to catch the underground lines 5, 12, 15, 16 or 18 until station Ebertplatz.
From the past into the present - a journey through sound, freedom, and time.
Before the big stages, before the hype — there was a movement. Raw, honest, and driven by one thing: freedom.
Techno was never just music. It was a feeling. A space without boundaries. A place where everyone belonged.
This is where it all began. And this is what still drives us today.
