• E-Tropolis Festival

The E-TROPOLIS Festival 2026 is now completely sold out! On 28th March 2026, the Turbinenhalle Oberhausen will once again transform into a vibrant hub for electronic music, spanning Dark Electro, EBM, Industrial, and Synthpop.

Among the headliners performing in just under three weeks are PROJECT PITCHFORK, COMBICHRIST (Oldschool-Set), and KITE - three names that represent distinct facets of the scene. For over three decades, PROJECT PITCHFORK have been defining figures of the Dark Electro genre, setting benchmarks with albums like ‘Alpha Omega’ and ‘Eon:Eon’. COMBICHRIST, with their exclusive Oldschool-Set, bring the raw energy of their early Aggrotech phase back to the stage, while Swedish duo KITE are renowned for their rich, atmospheric melodies and emotional Electropop.

Everybody be cool, this is a robbery! THE FUN LOVIN’ CRIMINALS are coming this May for the second leg of their “A Matter of Time World Tour”!

Founded in New York City in 1993, THE FUN LOVIN’ CRIMINALS (or FLC for short) remain one of the most enduring bands to emerge from the 1990s melting pot of Pop culture and diverse genres. With their unique style, FLC continue to captivate fans across the globe. The band has rightfully earned a reputation as an absolute “must-see” live act.

Everything about BLACK LABEL SOCIETY begins with the riff. A dedicated disciple of ZEPPELIN, SABBATH, and DEEP PURPLE, Zakk Wylde looks to the massive guitar hooks in classics like ‘Whole Lotta Love’, ‘Into the Void’, and ‘Smoke On the Water’ as guiding lights. “The main ingredient in any Black Label soup is the riff,” says the larger-than-life frontman.
