Recommendations of the Editorial team
On November 13th and 14th, 2026 it will be that time again. Then the latest edition of ROLLING STONE BEACH will take place at the Weissenhäuser Strand holiday and leisure park.
Now the first wave of bands has been announced for our feel-good festival on the Baltic Sea, led by this year’s headliner The Notwist. As one of the most internationally influential German acts between post-rock and experimental pop music, the band has been combining indie rock with electronica, jazz and ambient influences to create a distinctive, atmospheric sound since the late 80s.
Another highlight this year The Wallflowerswho play two sets at once. In the set “Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers” the band dedicates itself to timeless heartland rock with clear guitars, catchy melodies and a warm, narrative tone. The second set, “Bringing Down The House,” features alternative rock, characterized by raw energy, profound lyrics and dynamic songwriting.
At ROLLING STONE Beach: Tortoise and International Music
There is anthemic indie rock from Razorlight, Moneybrother However, it brings soul, punk attitude and anthemic rock’n’roll. Ash balancing between power pop and Britrock and Tortoise present their pioneering experimental post-rock instrumental sound.
Oh My God! It’s The Church On the other hand, they stage an idiosyncratic mix of concert, cabaret and rock’n’roll gospel show. If you want raw indie energy with German lyrics, this is it Men’s magazine at the right address. This is supplemented by International Music with guitar rock between melancholy, Krautrock and lo-fi aesthetics.
For a special atmosphere and surprising moments The cheerfulness and The Haunted Youth – some with their reduced indie pop, others with an “80s coming-of-age punk rock film”. Also at ROLLING STONE Beach: Personal trainers, Really good time and Marathon.
As always, the festival, with its mix of old and new heroes, promises an intensive music experience directly on the Baltic Sea with comfortable accommodation in a hotel, bungalow or apartment. Further information and tickets are available HERE.
A second headliner, further acts and the supporting program will be announced in the coming weeks.
