More about April 2027

April is a transitional month on the festival calendar: the first open-air events of the year share the schedule with plenty of indoor and city-based gatherings, making for a clearly mixed season. The month lists 60 festivals, a more modest volume than the peak summer months, yet already varied, from large American events to European city festivals and electronic nights.

Among the headliners, Big Ears 2027 in Knoxville (187 artists) and Tallinn Music Week (186 artists) stand out for the size of their line-ups, ahead of Teddy Rocks in the United Kingdom and Time Warp Germany in Mannheim, an electronic event held at the Maimarkthalle. By genre, rock (25 festivals) and pop (23) lead the way, followed by folk, electronic and jazz.

Geographically, the United States accounts for 29 festivals, well ahead of the United Kingdom (7), France (5), Germany (4) and the Netherlands (3). To keep exploring, check out March 2027 for the end of winter or May 2027 as the season gathers pace.
