Art(e)facts Festival 2026

In the organizer's words:

Art(e)facts Festival 2026 - 48 hours of art & culture

On July 18 & 19, 2026, the area around the Park Café in Cologne will be transformed into an interdisciplinary experience space: an open-air gallery meets a curated art & music program, 2 stages open air and indoor 35 hours of music without a break! Progressive rhythms and pure house sound including a special live act! The transition into the night is seamless: international and local artists play several floors of electronic music - from timeless house sounds to driving club sets.

Line up: coming soon!

During the day, you can expect an eclectic mix of visual art, installations, a skate contest, film screenings on an open-air cinema screen as well as talks and panels on cultural topics. The program is complemented by interactive experience areas, food (Michel makes pizza) & drink concepts and creative pop-up stands.

Art(e)facts is more than just a festival - it is a holistic cultural experience that combines art, music and social impulses. The festival creates space for encounters, exchange and new perspectives - for artists, cultural workers and anyone looking for more than just a classic event.
