DESERTFEST BERLIN announces new band names for 2026 and adds TOUNDRA, CAUSA SUI, GREENLEAF and GUMM!


Desertfest Berlin has added four more heavyweights to its eclectic 2026 line-up! Newly confirmed are Toundra, Causa Sui, Greenleaf and Gumm.

Returning after a well-earned hiatus, Madrid’s instrumental torchbearers Toundra are back. Known for monumental riffs, intricate melodies and an emotional pull that hits hard without words, they return to the stage exactly where they belong. From Denmark, psychedelic explorers Causa Sui bring their ever-evolving instrumental soundscapes. A slow-burning surge of kraut, heavy psych and cosmic rock, rooted in decades of amplified history and built for deep immersion. 

Sweden’s Greenleaf stand as a true stoner rock institution. Hypnotic grooves, fuzz-soaked riffs and a strong sense of soul define their sound; heavy, grounded and unmistakably connected to the desert rock tradition. Rounding things out, Gumm arrive straight from Chattanooga, Tennessee, delivering raw hardcore punk energy, no frills, no mercy. Fast, furious and ready to level the room!

These additions further shape a line-up that already includes Red Fang, Russian Circles, Hermano feat. John Garcia, The Sword, King Buffalo, Acid King, Truckfighters, Crippled Black Phoenix, Nebula, Earthless, Rotor, Blackwater Holylight, Pelican, Fuzz Sagrado (ex Samsara Blues Experiment), Zerre, The Dharma Chain, among many more!

Desertfest Berlin 2026 takes place from May 14–16, 2026 at Columbiahalle and Columbia Theater in Berlin. Tickets, day splits and venue sleep-over options are available at: www.desertfest-tickets.de
