Founded in 2002, Decibel outdoor has been taking place only half an hour’s drive from Eindhoven on the grounds of a Safari Park since 2006. The unique vibe of this beautiful forest and water landscape makes a large part of the festival mood. The Decibel outdoor promises a weekend full of energetic beats, spectacular shows and unique festival atmosphere.
FANATIC FRIDAY
On the first day of the festival, the foundation of the Loudest City on Earth is laid on various stages. New this year is the XL Sound of Decibel stage. Artists like Coone, D-Block & S-te-Fan and Radical Redemption give an insight into their discography – a journey through the past and present. On Mainstage there will be a massive show with sets of Brennan Heart, Rebelion pres. Beyond The Horizon LIVE, the premiere of the new live show by Rejecta, Sub Zero Project, the Closing Session by Angerfist LIVE and many more. In order to cover other types such as Hard Techno, Uptempo and Hardcore, the Raw stage is packed with an inexorable line-up including Cynthia Spiering, Kruelty and N-Vitral pres. Industrial Rave.
LIVE LOUD SATURDAY
The Saturday is the full festival experience with the ULTIMATE DAY TO LIVE LOUD! On the Mainstage is the motto ALL OUT with Frequencerz’ final set, an exclusive live show by Ran-D, Rooler, Unresolved: Bad Blood Final Reckoning LIVE and many more! At the end of the day there is the Closing session of Sefa, followed by the bombastic end show. In the north of the festival area, festival visitors will find the Raw stage, which comes up with live acts and DJ sets that cover the entire spectrum of Raw. The Neon Forest will keep the kicks running and move the melodies in the hardcore and euphoric areas. In the south of the festival area, the industrial stage and an uptempo line-up will continue to turn and the pace will be brought to the next stage. Of course, Saturday would not be complete without the iconic Pussy Lounge! The organizer says: “Expect a rollercoaster of music and madness!” In addition to the Pussy Lounge, a new location will be the home of the Hardstyle Classics on Saturday, where lovers will be relocated to the golden era.
SAVAGE SUNDAY
On the last day, Decibel outdoor induces the EXTREME phase. This is the motto for this day – now or never! The main days are brought to their limits with a powerful SAVAGE marathon by e.g. Aversion, D-Sturb, Imperatorz and Warface. This year there will be some mainstage debuts of Dual Damage, Regain (with its OG Raw Sound as Polish Punisher) and Imperatorz. The Closing Set is taken over by Adjuzt. The uptempo stage combines Early Uptempo to Bounce and will once again invite a SAVAGE Marathon with Juliëx, Major Conspiracy, Noxiouz and The Dope Doctor. Hardcore fans need to plan their day carefully because they have the choice between the sounds of today, yesterday and the underground, between The Hardcore, Millennium Hardcore, Oldschool and Terror.
THAT’S NOT ALL
Even if the line-up is already complete, it does not mean that this is all the LOUDEST CITY has to offer this year. The program of the WKND, the Future District and the Party Parade remains a secret for the first time.
