📋About
Call the Ship To Port 2026: aggrotech and dark electro in Cologne, Germany
A unique event, Call the Ship To Port transforms the MS Rheinmagie boat moored on the Rhine in Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, into a vessel for aggrotech and dark electro. This floating evening creates a claustrophobic and intense atmosphere, perfectly suited to industrial sounds.
The 2026 edition brings together 3 major acts from the international dark electro scene. Headliners Hocico, Mexican aggrotech pioneers, Grendel and Alienare explore the territories of electro-industrial and EBM.
The programme combines dark electro, future pop, synthpop and industrial distortions. The festival focuses on the aggressive energy of machines and harsh vocals, in a riverside setting that contrasts with the sonic violence unleashed on board.
On July 24, 2026, the MS Rheinmagie sets sail for a dark electronic cruise on the Rhine. Browse the lineup and book your place aboard.
