Grauzone Festival (The Hague, Netherlands) 2027

Grauzone Festival is an interdisciplinary festival of post punk, darkwave, coldwave, synth and related music held every February in The Hague, the Netherlands. The 2027 edition takes place from Friday, February 12 to Sunday, February 14, 2027, with its main venue at Paard on Prinsegracht and several other locations nearby.

The festival combines live music with film and art, and it has built a reputation for putting new bands next to established names from the 1980s. It is also known for its principles: it has been meat free and climate conscious since its first edition, serves vegan food and encourages artists and visitors to travel by train. Over the years the festival has recorded studio sessions with visiting acts, which it publishes on its YouTube channel as the Grauzone Sessions.

The first names for 2027 were announced in May 2026, with further waves following in June and September. The announced acts include Cold Cave (solo, performing Cremations), Au Pairs, Iceage, Marissa Nadler, Mareux, Night in Athens, She Past Away, Curses, Dina Summer, Cardiel, Holy Motors and Ghost Cop, with more names promised. The full list is on the official line-up page.
