AMPLIFIRE FESTIVAL Announces Final Bands and Completes Lineup for 2026!

In August, AMPLIFIRE will present two days of guitar-driven music spanning alternative rock, post-hardcore, and punk rock in the lush, colorful oasis of the Port of Hamburg. Already confirmed are top-tier headliners such as rock giants Biffy Clyro (UK), punk rock institution Bad Religion (US)—who will play their only German show at the AMPLIFIRE FESTIVAL 2026—as well as the affable musician from the British Isles, Frank Turner (UK), with his band The Sleeping Souls.

With a final wave of bands, seven more acts are joining the lineup, including the queer power-pop duo ARXX (GB) from Brighton, the self-proclaimed German hyper-rock band Pabst (DE), and the alternative rockers Van Holzen (DE) from Ulm. Also new to the lineup is the band Nikra (DE), with their mix of alternative rock, punk energy, and an uncompromising attitude. Arson (BE) fromBelgium promise sweat-inducing ecstasy somewhere between rock ’n’ roll, punk, hardcore, and Southern rock. Fans of Heisskalt and FJØRT will gettheir money’s worth with malheur (DE), and 6two7 (DE) bring a breath of fresh air to German pop-punk.

With these new confirmations, the lineup—lovingly curated by fans for fans—has grown to 30 bands and is now complete. On August 7 & 8, the passion and energy of this music will come together for a weekend at the MS Artville grounds in Wilhelmsburg. IT WILL GET LOUD!
