Horn to be Wild Festival 2025 - 10. Jubiläum

In the organizer's words:

The 10th Horn to be Wild Festival!

Our music festival makes the Bremen Horn district loud for a few hours! Since 2015, we have been organizing it on a voluntary basis with a lot of passion to offer young artists a stage and create a unique day in Horn. On the occasion of the anniversary, we have two stages this year and take place until midnight.

Guests can dance in front of the stage or relax on picnic blankets, enjoy the food on offer at the food trucks or experience various things at the hands-on stands.

Line up:

Aaron

Aaron brings it all: Emotion, beats and damn good songs.
He is a drummer with Zartmann and has worked in various projects with Dominik Hartz, Kasi and Esther Graf, to whom you celebrated with us in 2022 and 2023.
Now Aaron is finally coming to our swb stage himself - with his own show, his own music and the sound that hits the nerve right now.
After Hurricane, Southside & Highfield now: Bremen!

Emma Rose

Emma Rose has always sung. And made music too. But she never dared to dream of performing her music professionally on stage. But then last fall, a Money Boy cover of hers went viral on TikTok. The little snippets for the socials, in which she interprets other people's songs with piano-led vocals, plenty of humor and perhaps a little feminist twist, eventually become her own songs between dreamy bedroom tunes and indie pop: witty, yet with attitude, but without a pointing finger. And that's exactly why they're so relatable.

Carla Ahad

Honest indie pop with rough edges and heart: Carla Ahad sings about life in Berlin. Sometimes melancholy, sometimes rousing, but always direct and poetic.
Live, her music unfolds in a completely new way: with her band, Carla brings beats, depth and genuine emotion to the stage. For singing along, dancing along and feeling along.
Not for the drawer, but for the stage and that's exactly why it's a real highlight!

Engin

Psychedelic pop meets Anatolian rock: ENGIN deliver the sound that German-Turkish pop music deserves. Between melancholic and brute, between beauty and dirt. Their songs tell of life between cultures, honest and full of emotion.
With fresh tracks from the "Şeker Tour 2025", the Mannheim-based band bring a concert experience to the stage that gets under your skin. A band not to be missed!
We were at their concert at the Schlachthof last Friday and are thrilled!

Joy

Between melancholy & euphoria, past & future, chaos & clarity - FREUDE provide the soundtrack for all those who move between worlds.
With their nostalgic Viennese pop, sometimes raw, sometimes warm, they touch hearts and minds in equal measure.
After a celebrated tour & songs like "Knutschen", "Trümmer" & "Bis es endlich wieder Frühling ist", which have already collected hundreds of thousands of streams, Nina, Joschi & Clemens are currently heading for the million mark with "Kleopatra". An experience between poetry, politics & Viennese charm. You can't miss this!

Paulinko

PAULINKO make "up-your-face pop" - loud, direct and without compromise.
Anna Pauline, Lisa-Marie and Amy bring a sound storm of 80s vibes, electro and punk energy to the stage that shows attitude and makes empowerment tangible. They stand for a generation that doesn't need permission and doesn't want to be told what to do.
Live, that means: 2×150% energy - and a very clear "More women on stage!"

TheCave

Four young indie rock talents from Bremen who are rethinking the sound: TheCave combine jazzy harmonies, shrill rock sounds and danceable grooves to create music that is immediately captivating.
With their own songs, interactive stage performance & lots of energy, they have not only conquered Bremen audiences, but also won the School Rock Festival 2024. Two singles are already available on Spotify. And live it really gets going!

Nike Helena

Time for a main act from Bremen! "I think you must be lying, because how can you love me? Sometimes I can't do it myself." - Nike Helena sings what often hurts and for which words sometimes fail.
Between pop, Neue Neue Deutsche Welle and techno, she has created her own sound: raw, honest and touching.
Her songs are about doubt, fear & the feeling of not being enough - and that's exactly why she creates a space in which we feel a little less alone with our insecurities.
Whether with "Gaffa Tape" or new tracks: this is going to be intense!

Monokrom

Live melodic vocal techno - that's MONOKROM.
Four friends from Berlin & Dresden combine their love of live and club music. Influenced by the club scene, they mix techno, breakbeat & organic house to create intense live sets. An experience between band, DJ show, goosebumps & trance.
Since 2022 they have been celebrating festivals like Fusion, Nation of Gondwana & clubs like Sisyphos or MS Stubnitz with their music.

Lilli Belle

Lilli Belle makes music for the melancholic Blue Hour. Somewhere between dream pop, shoegaze and a touch of NDW.
With reverberating guitars, driving drums and uplifting vocal harmonies, she creates spaces for emotion, longing and departure.
Inspired by bands such as Beach House or Slowdive, Lilli Belle brings her own signature to the German indie scene - vulnerable, powerful and full of atmosphere.

The festival is made possible by our sponsors ÖVB, hkk, swb, Bremen Vier and others.

After the festival there is the possibility to continue to Modernes for the dance night.
With the festival wristband you pay only 4 € instead of 8 €.
