MAGMA Festival | 08. & 09. August 2026

On 08 + 09 August 2026, MAGMA returns to RSO.Berlin for its second, expanded edition, transforming VALLEY and OPAN into a two-day open-air universe defined by high-impact live performances and carefully curated DJ bookings, including a strong mix of standout international artists and rising local talents.

Set on the former brewery grounds in Oberschöneweide, MAGMA unfolds as an open space where raw club intimacy meets the immersive energy of an open-air festival. Over one summer weekend, the site becomes a vibrant urban playground, pairing forward-thinking club music and alternative dance-pop with striking production, immersive stage design, and thoughtfully selected food and drink offers that complete the experience.

Rather than following a singular genre logic, MAGMA builds tension through contrast: the 2026 program moves fluidly between house, techno, and bass music while folding in hyperpop, alternative R&B, indie, and dance-punk, creating friction and a dynamic structural dialogue.

The lineup features masterclass DJ and producer Joy Orbison, bringing his deep, percussive UK sound to Berlin, and Yaeji, whose hypnotic blend of house minimalism and understated pop blurs the line between club functionality and emotional introspection. Erika de Casier pushes R&B into cool, futuristic minimalism, while Skin On Skin channels raw energy through UK garage and rave. The Dare adds sharp indie-dance momentum, Detroit’s Hi-Tech deliver relentless ghetto-tech, and Swedish duo Deki Alem move between avant-pop, rave-rap, and controlled chaos. Headache provides a melancholic, dreamlike counterpoint, showing that intensity can unfold as much in subtlety as in peak-time moments.

Around these acts, there are many more musical highlights to discover, including Sophia Stel, New York, DJ Travella, Mia Koden, Mietze Conte, Six Sex and more.

As night falls, MAGMA continues inside RSO Club with its first-ever official afterparty on Saturday, 08 August, from 22:00. The transition from open air to club is seamless, extending the festival deep into the night before returning to Sunday's second chapter outdoors. On the legendary Robus floor, Blawan performs a rare live set alongside Pearson Sound and Surusinghe. Meanwhile, the Summe floor offers a more eclectic journey with a live performance from Tracey and artists from female-led collectives including Femmebass Mafia and Garage Girls, and many more.

The official afterparty completes the full MAGMA experience, flowing effortlessly from day into night and back into the open air.
