Since its first edition in 1997, Hurricane Festival has grown into one of Germany’s largest music festivals, attracting over 77,000 visitors every year. Besides internationally successful artists and German favourites, the festival has also been a springboard for up-and-coming bands.

The festival is easily reached by public transport, with Scheeßel train station located only 1.5 kilometres away from the festival grounds.
