Understand the pause

Highfield’s July 2026 announcement calls that summer its last dance before a creative pause in 2027 to rethink the concept. This is a pause announcement, not a confirmed date for the next edition or proof of permanent closure.

Camping and vehicles are separate products

The published camping rules distinguish Regular and Green Camping. A Regular Camping pass does not grant access to Green Camping, and ordinary admission without camping does not cover an overnight stay. Each camper needs the relevant pass; bringing a vehicle into Trailer Park requires the corresponding vehicle product.

Plan around the announced edition

For an announced return, check the updated access map and camping products before booking Lake Störmthal accommodation or vehicle travel. Follow the festival’s temporary approach signs rather than assuming every road around the lake leads to your entrance.
