Radio Kartina Fest: The Biggest Event of Summer 2026

Are you ready for the biggest event of the coming summer? On August 22, 2026, Frankfurt will become the center of a spectacular musical event! The picturesque open-air venue Sommerwiese an der Jahrhunderthalle will host the Radio Kartina Fest. Be a part of it and enjoy the atmosphere of freedom, music, and unforgettable experiences!

Radio Kartina Fest is more than just a music festival. It’s an opportunity to socialize and fully immerse yourself in a true summer celebration. You’ll experience an incredible atmosphere, electrifying DJ sets, an extensive music lineup, meet-and-greets with popular bloggers, and a large food fair. We pay special attention to our guests’ comfort: relaxation areas, food courts, interactive activities, and photo zones—everything you need to unwind and recharge.

The headliners of Radio Kartina Fest are the ones who set trends and break stereotypes! Audiences can look forward to seeing JAH KHALIB, whose music seamlessly blends R&B aesthetics, lyrical hip-hop, and flawless live sound.

JULIA VOLKOVA, former lead singer of the legendary duo t.A.T.u., will be a special guest and one of the evening’s main stars. On the Radio Kartina Fest stage, this world-renowned artist will present an exclusive live set featuring iconic hits that have become a cultural touchstone for an entire generation.

The program’s contemporary context is underscored by the participation of KILIANA —a vibrant representative of the new wave, whose electronic sound, combined with her expressive vocal delivery, brings a modern aesthetic to the festival’s overall concept.

JASCHKA will add a special touch of sincerity to the festival’s lineup. The artist’s unique style is a fresh mix of pop, indie, and singer-songwriter music.

SIMAS —a Russian-speaking singer and blogger who has gained popularity thanks to viral hits and her vibrant stage presence—will round out the festival’s contemporary sound.

DoReDoS —a high-energy trio from Moldova, known to millions of viewers from “Eurovision 2018” and their hit “My Lucky Day”—will ramp up the festival’s energy. The winners of “New Wave 2017” blend modern pop sounds with Moldovan flair and their signature stage energy—their performance turns any venue into a massive dance floor.

The festival will feature performances by the best DJs: DJ X-TIN, DJ MARRAKECH, DJ S7VEN, DJ INSANE, and DJ LEOMEE.
