Hive Festival is a popular electronic music festival in Germany, focusing on psychedelic trance and techno music.
Originally a psychedelic trance festival, Hive’s roots trace back to its beginnings in Tutow, which festivalgoers fondly remember for its intimate, community-driven atmosphere.
Despite changes such as moving to Ferropolis, Hive Festival continues to attract a loyal following, particularly among fans of techno and psychedelic music.
While the travel between the camping areas and the infield could take some time, the festival offers convenient transport options, making the 25-minute walk more bearable for those who don’t mind the extra effort.
The psytrance and hi-tech dance floor in particular features a fantastic lineup and friendly vibe. Despite this, it is obvious the festival’s main focus is on techno music.
Hive remains an essential fixture on the European festival circuit—blending cutting-edge electronic music with a diverse crowd. Whether you’re there for the techno beats, the trippy visuals, or the lakeside setting, Hive continues to pull in a dedicated crowd, even as it navigates the complexities of growing into a larger, more commercialized festival.
