The 2026 Motto: Journey Beyond Borders
This year, our favorite kick-off of the festival season is themed „A Journey Beyond Borders“ – and that perfectly captures the experience. REBiRTH becomes a musical journey around the world, no passport required.
From the grandeur of New York’s theatrical skyline to to Tokyo’s neon-drenche streets, and from the desert wind that whispers through Cairo’s hidden alleyways to the inferno that awaits in Shanghai’s dragon temple – you’ll set foot into a wild cityscape where every detail echoes the sound of REBiRTH’s worldwide journey.
On top of that, you can expect legendary pre- and after-parties at REBiRTH Residence Camping, the beloved activities, and unique musical highlights like the Road to REBiRTH Stage (where only uprising newcomers play), the Anthem Show, and the REBiRTH Evolution Specials. There’s something to discover around every corner. REBiRTH has long become more than just a festival – it’s truly a musical journey with no limits.
The REBiRTH 2026 Line-Up
Over 300 acts are on this year’s line-up and will take over the 18 stages of REBiRTH Festival next weekend. Whether it’s Euphoric, Uptempo, RAW, Classics or Hardcore, REBiRTH brings together the entire Harder Styles scene under one roof – or rather, under the spring sky of Haaren.
This year’s line-up is a powerful mix of established scene legends, brand-new live acts, and exclusive B2B-collaborations you’ll only see at REBiRTH. On top of that, you can experience 18 REBiRTH Evolution Specials and spectacular world premieres. And just like every year, a few rising talents will get the chance of a lifetime and play at REBiRTH Festival.
The Timetables
Here you’ll find the timetables for all three festival days and the camping stage:

Line-up Highlights And Specials
There are a few sets you’ll definitely want to mark in your timetable. BMBERJCK, Lekkerfaces, Aalst and Akimbo will premiere their brand-new live acts on stage for the very first time at REBiRTH Festival. More goosebump moments are waiting for you with live shows such as: Act of Rage with “Uncharted,” Phuture Noize with “Open Heart Surgery,” and Unresolved with “Warbound.”
Another highlight to look out for is the new Face-2-Face concept by B-Front and Phuture Noize. They first showcased it in February at their own event, and now they are bringing it to the REBiRTH mainstage this Friday.
Instead of standing side by side like in a classic B2B set, the two hardstyle icons perform facing each other – a setup that creates a completely unique and intense atmosphere throughout the entire set.
REBiRTH Evolution Sets
Following the huge success of last year’s „15 Years Specials“ anniversary, the concept returns in 2026 with a new name: the REBiRTH Evolution Specials. A total of 18 special shows await you, combining iconic classics, major festival hits, and brand-new tracks into unique performances. The REBiRTH Evolution Specials will take place on Saturday and Sunday and are highlighted in purple on the timetable.
Among those performances are Sub Zero Project, D-Block & S-te-Fan vs. Phuture Noize, Rebelion, Rooler, Radical Redemption, Warface, Miss K8, Atmozfears, and Noisecontrollers – the latter will also celebrate another milestone with their own 20th-anniversary special. But Noisecontrollers won’t be the only one marking a special occasion: Coone will also deliver a set dedicated to a major milestone – the 20th anniversary of his Hardstyle label Dirty Workz.
The Road to REBiRTH Newcomer Contest
Since 2023, REBiRTH has been giving upcoming talents in the Harder Styles scene the chance to perform on a major stage and push their careers forward with the Road to REBiRTH Newcomer Contest – and 2026 is no different.
More than 200 acts applied to secure one of the 21 spots on this year’s festival line-up. Participants had to submit a mixtape of up to 30 minutes, including at least one original track. Winners were selected based on jury evaluations and public votes.
In the end, three acts emerged as winners and will each open one of the big stages on Saturday: Savellix on the mainstage, Harde Kwark in the REBORN RAW area, and D-Stroy in the RESiST area. Additionally, 18 other winners will play on Friday and Sunday at the Road to REBiRTH stage, an area dedicated to the contest winners.
Here are all the contest winners of 2026:
Camping at REBiRTH Festival – REBiRTH Residence Camping
Every April, over 6,000 campers make the REBiRTH Residence fields in Haaren their home, forming their very own little festival community. Whether the weather cooperates in early April or not, for most people, camping at the REBiRTH Festival is simply part of the experience. And for good reason: The REBiRTH Residence campground is located right next to the festival grounds, so you can reach every stage in less than 15 minutes on foot. No long walks, no endless queues like at other festivals – just a unique, familiar atmosphere that defines the camping experience at the REBiRTH Residence camp and makes it something truly special.
Accommodations
There’s something for everyone when it comes to accommodations. If you’re bringing your own tent, you can camp on the standard campsite or book a Friendscamp – a reserved area for groups of 4 to 26 people, that includes a personalized name sign.
If you’d rather travel light and skip the tent altogether, one of the pre-set accommodations might be the better choice: FestiTent, Delta Deluxe Tent, The Elvis Glamping Tent or the Flexotel, which REBiRTH Events describes as feeling like a real hotel room.
| Here is an overview of the accommodations |
Pre- and afterparties
But the REBiRTH Residence campground offers much more than just a place to sleep. The absolute highlight of the REBiRTH Residence are the daily pre- and afterparties on the camping stage, featuring exclusive sets in a more intimate setting that you simply won’t find on the festival grounds.
This time, the campig lineup features Coldax, Detailed, BMBERJCK vs. Revelation, and The Speedteam–consisting of Akimbo, Kili, Revealer, Roosterz, and Samynator.
In addition, the Opening Show is back and will be presented by The Saints & Mish in the RESiST Area in 2026. Please note: However, the Holy Pookie Vote Ceremony is is exclusively accessible to camping residents and not to day visitors!
The pre-party kicks off daily at 11:00, while the silent disco is open until 4:00 on Friday and Saturday nights and until 2:00 on Sunday.
Another new feature this year is the Eleven Travel party bus, which is located on the campground. Here, you can also party all weekend long. The Eleven Travel party bus has its own lineup, which will be announced soon.
Camping Activities
If you’ve still got energy left between sets and are up for some fun side quests, you’ll definitely find what you’re looking for at the REBiRTH Residence campsite. On Friday, the Rodeo Bull is waiting for anyone ready to test their balance, while Saturday brings action and adrenaline with the Sweeper.
The soccer area is open daily from 10:00 to 22:00, and on Sundays there’s a guided fitness session from 9:00 to 14:00 , for anyone who doesn’t want to skip their workout even during the festival weekend.
If you’re in need of a break, the heated cinema offers a place to relax around the clock. The arcade games area is also open 24/7, and after the festival, while you can relax in the hot tubs from 11:00 to 14:00.
On Sunday, the REBiRTH Residence also hosts the Harder Styles quiz „Who is it?!“ from 10:00 to 14:00 – the perfect chance to prove just how well you really know the scene.

The official REBiRTH Anthem: „When Sound Meets Sound“ by Dual Damage and Phuture Noize
For the 2026 anthem, REBiRTH Events has chosen a combination that might seem unexpected at first glance – but that’s exactly what makes it so interesting. With Dual Damage and Phuture Noize, two acts have been selected as anthem creators who stylistically come from different corners of the scene: on one side, the unmistakable, innovative PVC-RAW kicks of Dual Damage; on the other, the soulful melodies and characteristic Rawphoric sounds of Phuture Noize.
The distinct sounds of both artists come together in „When Sound Meets Sound,“ a track that reflects their creativity and shared connection to music.
See for yourself and get in the mood for REBiRTH festival:
Our tip: If you want to experience the anthem live, be sure to mark Saturday between 20:00 and 20:05 in your personal timetable, because that’s when the official anthem show takes place on the mainstage.

Travel
REBiRTH Festival takes place at the festival grounds on Antwepsebaan in Helvoirt, located between Tilburg and Den Bosch in the Netherlands. Here’s how to get there:
By car
Enter „Haaren“ as the destination in your GPS. To get to the designated parking locations as camper, follow the yellow signs with „P CAMPING“ on them; if you’re a day visitor, follow the signs marked „P BEZOEKERS.“
Parking tickets are available at the REBiRTH ticket shop. You can also buy a parking ticket on-site, but they’re more expensive there, and you can only pay with a debit card.
Priority Parking
Please note: This year, REBiRTH Festival will offer priority parking for the first time. This means that all visitors with a priority parking ticket can park closer to the festival grounds by paying an additional fee.
The new Priority parking lot is located right next to the festival, less than a five-minute walk from the entrance. You can find the Priority parking lot by first following the signs marked “P CAMPING” and then continuing toward the signs marked “P PRIORITY.” Day visitors should, of course, first follow the “P BEZOEKERS” signs and then look for the “P PRIORITY” signs.
Please note: Priority parking tickets are only available during the presale. It is not possible to charge your electric car in the parking area.
By bus
Public transportation and shuttle buses
Shuttle buses will take you safely from the nearest train station, the station in Den Bosch (NS Station ‘s-Hertogenbosch), to REBiRTH Festival and back.
Regarding the pick-ups in ’s-Hertogenbosch, please note the following: on Friday, the bus departs from Magistratenlaan (behind the station); on Saturdays and Sundays, the bus departs from Bus Stop A – in front of ‘s-Hertogenbosch station.
The shuttle buses run continuously between the following times from NS Station ‘s-Hertogenbosch to the festival site and back:
- Friday: 08:30 – 18:00 and 22.00 – 00.45
- Saturday: 11:30 – 16:00 and 21:30 – 01:00
- Sunday: 12:30 – 16:30 and 21:30 – 23:45
- Monday: 09:00 – 12:30
Please note that all times are subject to change, because shuttle bus running times are obviously highly dependent on road traffic. Therefore, do not rely on the last bus if you need to catch a connection. A one-way journey takes about 20 minutes.
A return ticket for the shuttle bus is available in the REBiRTH Ticketshop and costs €15 online. Shuttle bus tickets are always cheaper online than on-site! On-site, shuttle bus tickets can only be bought via a QR code.
Bustransfer from Breda, Eindhoven and Tilburg
Also new this year are the transfer buses by Eleven Travel, which will take you directly from Breda, Eindhoven, and Tilburg to the festival without any stops.
Tickets for the shuttle buses are available as well at the REBiRTH Ticketshop.
Bus tours by Hardtours and Feierreisen
Hardtours and Feierreisen offer day trips and weekend tours departing from many locations across Germany – there are still a few spots left in some cities!
Organised bus trip / coach
You also have the option of organizing your own bus tour with your group of friends. However, you must register your coach no later than April 8, 2026; otherwise, you will have to pay €35 on-site. Registering your coach is, of course, free of charge!
You can sign up for your own bus tour here.
Taxi and Kiss & Ride
The separate taxi location will return in 2026. This means your driver can drop you off right next to the festival grounds. If you’re taking a taxi, use this address for navigation: Kantstraat 93, 5076 NP Haaren and follow the yellow signs with: Taxi on them or use this route.
The two Kiss & Ride parking areas located right next to the festival grounds are back as well. To get to the Kiss & Ride drop-off area, enter „Haaren“ as your destination and follow the yellow „Kiss & Ride“ signs.
Bicycles
There are two bicycle parking areas specially set up for REBiRTH Festival visitors. Please note: park only in the designated bike racks. There is no electric bike charging point available.
From Helvoirt or Vught, enter „Antwerpsebaan 12, 868 KB, Helvoirt“ as your destination and follow the yellow signs marked “Fietsenstalling.”
If you’re coming from Haaren, Biezenmortel, Udenhout, or Oisterwijk, enter this address into your GPS: „Oude Baan 9, 5076 PJ Haaren,“ and follow the yellow signs marked „Fietsenstalling.“
