NCN Warm Up 2026: Darkwave and EBM at Kulturpark Deutzen, Germany

The NCN Warm Up is the satellite event of the Night of the Classics, held at Kulturpark Deutzen in Saxony, central Germany. An annual gathering for fans of dark music, it brings together electronic, rock and pop subcultures coloured by darkwave and EBM in a single day.

For the 2026 edition on 3 September, the lineup features 8 artists. Headliners Prager Handgriff and Tyske Ludder are two benchmarks of the EBM and electro-industrial scene. Marc Almond brings a synth-pop and singer-songwriter dimension to the bill.

The sonic palette spans darkwave, electro-industrial, dance-rock and post-punk, with excursions into shoegaze and new wave. The event appeals to long-time members of the gothic scene as well as younger audiences drawn to dark aesthetics.
