NEWS & UPDATES
00 DAYS TO GO (00: 00: 00)
GLAUBITZ CALLING!
BACK TO FUTURE, back from its year-long slumber, back in the same place, back in the middle of summer!
Here's the first band and presale info. Of course, we'll be introducing each act individually in the coming days, as usual. We'll once again be putting together an appealing and diverse lineup – with new and old favorites, a few surprises, but above all, bands that fit our festival.
We're also making BTF a bit smaller again, and therefore a bit more intimate, based on your feedback from the past few months. This also means that we'll be limiting the number of tickets, so grab yours quickly!
You can get a weekend ticket in advance for just €79.00 as an e-ticket, or as a stylish hard ticket for your bulletin board or fridge. Anyone who would like to support us further can order a BTF Supporter Ticket as a hard ticket for the regular BTF price of €99.00 (including a €20.00 donation).
We can't wait and are really looking forward to seeing you!
Back To Future 2026 – we're back!
Yes, it took some time – but there were good reasons for that. The originally planned new concept for our beloved festival unfortunately couldn't be implemented. So we kept refining it: endless meetings, a thousand coordination changes, five reschedulings, and overcoming the usual bureaucratic hurdles. But we did it!
The result is impressive: From July 16th to 18th, 2026, we'll be celebrating again at the Reitplatz – smaller, more intimate, more direct. So you can already submit your wellness vacation voucher.
We'll meet again where it all began – with new energy, but with what always remains: a relaxed atmosphere, cold drinks, and honest punk rock. Just as it should be!
The first band announcements and information about the start of presales will follow in the coming days.
RUNNING ORDER
Back to Future was supposed to start next week in Glaubitz, and the current status is known... As a small "compensation," there are a few brilliant bands from the original BTF lineup at the Chemiefabrik Dresden, and today they announced the running order for all three days. We think this will be a worthy replacement event on a smaller scale. The outdoor area of the Chemiefabrik is also being included in the plans as a beer garden; it's going to be beautiful, we're really looking forward to it. Here's what it looks like:

TICKET-RETURN
The right to return BTF tickets purchased in advance ends on July 16, 2025.
Just a quick note: the solidarity of your ticket donations, or partial ticket donations, was extraordinary. It prompts us to meet in Glaubitz this weekend for the originally planned start of setup. We have some really cool ideas for punk rock wellness!
From the Glaubitz field to Chemiefabrik!
In five weeks, Punk Rock Wellness would normally be back on the agenda in Glaubitz, but unfortunately, the reality is different.
We can live with the cancellation now and are happy that we can at least be guests of some of this year's BTF dream bands. Thanks for that, Chemiefabrik Dresden.
According to Chemiefabrik, 90 percent of the combination tickets (July 17-19) for the event "From the Glaubitz Field to the Chemical Factory" have already been sold. Availability for individual day tickets is looking a little better. We know that a lot of cool people are looking forward to the lineup, and we're looking forward to seeing you. Therefore, our appeal: Don't wait too long to buy your tickets; even the chemotherapy has to factor in the time.
To give the whole show a more festival-like feel, the organizers have added the popular Dresden punk-schlager duo ELBTALHERZEN and Ernstl ala ED SERIOUS to the lineup for Saturday. LOHRGE, who were also scheduled to perform in Glaubitz, will also be there on Friday.
We'll keep you updated on advance sales and the schedule in the coming days.
