Author Benedetta Baldin - 8.9.2026

Prophecy Fest reports that the 2027 edition is sold out.

Following the announcement of a world-exclusive Falkenbach performance next year and a pre-sale held last weekend in the Balve Cave only for guests of this year’s edition, Prophecy Fest 2027 is now sold out. 

It took less than 24 hours after the official sales start for next year’s fest 3-day-passes to be gone. Recreational vehicle parking is also sold out already.

Prophecy Fest states: “We are amazed and deeply grateful for the trust and massive interest extended towards Prophecy Fest by our guests”, label and fest founder Martin Koller writes. “Although we were hoping that the announcement of Falkenbach would be well received, we did not expect to be sold out within a record-breaking 24 hours. We feel honoured and see this as an obligation to create a great billing with many highlights for the diverse musical tastes of the Prophecy family. We will announce more fascinating artists and bands soon. So many thanks and see you in Balve next year!

Prophecy Fest 2027 has been scheduled for September 2-4, 2027.

LOCATION & TRAVEL

Prophecy Fest was founded in 2015 and sold out its first edition. This singular event for dark and innovative music takes place in the Balver Kulturhöhle (“Balve Culture Cave”) in the Hönnetal (“Hönne Valley”) near the town of Balve in the Sauerland region of the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.

The naturally formed karst cave has been used by humans since the early Stone Age (palaeolithic). This important archaeological site has yielded remains from many periods through the ages until medieval times. According to Germanic legend transmitted through the old Icelandic Thidreksaga, the mythical blacksmith Wayland came to this cave to learn his magical craft from the dwarven masters that were dwelling there.

The gravity of its history and the special acoustics of the Balve Cave provide a unique atmosphere that perfectly echoes the musical spirit of Prophecy Fest.
