Plage Noire is not a summer festival camouflaged in autumn colors – it was conceived from the beginning as a festival with winter romance and cold air that sounds warm. For years, this gathering at Weissenhäuser Strand has been a permanent fixture on the map of the black scene: vacation resort, sea air, cold paths between the locations – and inside, warmth, fog, cones of light. You check in like you’re on vacation and come out like after an intense night that you can’t explain without a smile on your face. In our March/April issue, we review Plage Noire once again with VNV Nation, Das Ich, Deine Lakaien, Suicide Commando, Schandmaul, Nitzer Ebb, Oomph! and many more.

The next Plage Noire will take place on November 20 and 21, 2026.
