SIEGFRIED & JOY
- Friday
Siegfried & Joy bring glitter, spectacle and pure magic to MS Dockville Festival 2026 in Hamburg. The Berlin-based disco magicians play with every classic illusion-show cliché — only to flip it with charm, humour and a perfect dose of self-irony. Between sensational tricks, wild storytelling and highly entertaining audience interaction, they create a performance that feels somewhere between Las Vegas, theatre and full-on pop delirium. Siegfried & Joy are not just magicians, they’re showmen with a golden sense of excess. If you’re into performances that are absurd, brilliant and ridiculously entertaining, this one is not to be missed.

RAVE AEROBIC
- Saturday

No skills, no pressure, no perfection needed: this is all about moving together and enjoying the moment. Somewhere between warm-up, workout and full-on 80s-style show with DJs, Rave Aerobic turns exercise into a playful collective experience. Whether you join to kick off the day or just want a quick endorphin rush in between concerts, this is your invitation to dance, sweat and let loose. No pressure, just vibes.

KAMPF DER KÜNSTE
POETRY SLAM

RADIOBALLETT
- Saturday
Radioballett brings a unique form of performance art to MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026 in Hamburg. Equipped with wireless headphones, participants become part of a shared story, transforming from spectators into active performers. Blurring the lines between reality and fiction, improvisation and choreography, Radioballett creates an experience that reimagines public space through collective action and unexpected encounters. It invites participants to step outside their comfort zone, explore new perspectives and become part of a performance that unfolds differently every time.
YOGA & PAINT (BY YAVO)
- Saturday
YAVO brings yoga, art and mindful moments to MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026 in Hamburg. Here, movement and creativity come together to create a space where relaxation is just as important as self-expression and curiosity. Amidst the energy of the festival, YAVO invites you to slow down, clear your mind and recharge. Whether on a yoga mat or with a paintbrush in hand, it’s not about perfection – it’s about exploring, letting go and creating together. A programme highlight for anyone looking to experience the festival from a different perspective, if only for a moment.
EMIL & JELDDRIK
Cone invites visitors to experience light as something that can be felt as much as seen. Combining laser projections with the warm glow of halogen lamps, the installation creates an immersive space that surrounds its audience and encourages them to pause within it.
The sculpture responds to sound in real time: frequencies trigger the halogen lights, while the lasers follow the impulses of the synthesizers. The result is a dynamic interplay of light, warmth and sound, transforming music into a physical, ever-changing experience.

FC PANI
FC PANI create visual worlds for music. The collective, consisting of Bareis & Nicolaus, Nam Huynh, Bewegtbildgrafik and Lichtgestalten, moves between pixels, projection and stage design, translating sound into images, spaces and atmospheres.
From record cover artworks for labels such as Permanent Vacation and Tartelet to campaigns for Universal, Sony and Warner, as well as stage concepts for artists like Marlon Hoffstadt and OOI, FC PANI combine a sharp graphic sensibility with a deep understanding of electronic music culture. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, they bring their eye for detail, movement and visual energy to Hamburg.
SIMMER.ART
Simmern combines light, video and music to create visual moments that gently pull the gaze away from the festival rush. The Hamburg-based media technology student works with TouchDesigner, transforming signals, data and chance into moving images shaped by geometric forms and floral structures.
For Visueller Gedankendrift, digital edges meet soft foliage, fluid reflections of light and slow, breathing rhythms. An installation that invites visitors to pause, look up and let their thoughts drift.

JANKO BARTELS
Janko Bartels creates light installations that are not only observed, but experienced. The Hamburg-based light artist draws inspiration from nature, science and event culture, often working with interactive, sensor-based or audiovisual elements.
At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, he presents an interactive light installation that invites visitors to gently immerse themselves in its own atmosphere. A moment to arrive, observe and get lost in light.
Links:
DR. STREBEL
Dr. Strebel creates spectacular light and fire installations that merge industrial aesthetics with imagination. Inspired by Amsterdam’s legendary ADM squat and its experimental art scene, his work combines strobe lights, smoke and fire into immersive experiences.
From fire-breathing metal sculptures to large-scale visual effects, dr. Strebel’s installations invite visitors to step into extraordinary worlds. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, he brings this unique fusion of light, smoke, metal and fire to Hamburg’s waterfront.

FOOOOOD
f o o o o d combines art, community and sustainability in a shared landscape installation. Created by brasebin terrisse, Johanna Bendlin and Kristin Laz, the project invites visitors to take part in building a space designed for resting, gathering and spending time together.
What serves as a place to pause during the festival becomes part of the site’s regeneration afterwards, as the reused soil is returned to areas that need restoration. An installation that continues to grow and give back long after the festival ends.
JASCHA&FRANZ
SASCHA&FRANZ create spaces that are more than just scenery. Founded by Jascha Kretschmann and Franz Thöricht, the scenography duo works between installation, design and spatial storytelling, creating immersive environments where material, atmosphere and social interaction come together.
Their work explores how space communicates: emotionally, physically and politically. Through pop-cultural references, everyday materials and a sensitive approach to each specific context, they build temporary architectures between intimacy and estrangement, reality and fiction. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, SASCHA&FRANZ bring their experimental visual language to the grounds.

JOSEFINE&TOM
A creature lies in the grass: eighteen metres long, threaded with pulsing veins of light, fog and driving sounds. For KOMPOSTIEREN., Josefine and Tom transform discarded grid lights into a new organism somewhere between machine and living being.
The installation understands waste not as an ending, but as the beginning of transformation. From leftovers, the KompostTier emerges – a body that gives discarded materials new life and makes the tension between nature, technology and reuse tangible.
POETOMAT
Der Poetomat turns poetry into a direct and playful experience. From the outside, it looks like a black box with an input and output slot; inside, skilled quick poets transform a single word into a personal poem.
One word in, one unique piece out: sometimes funny, sometimes strange, sometimes short, sometimes unexpectedly deep, but always surprising. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, Der Poetomat invites visitors to discover poetry in a playful way and take home a small piece of the festival in poem form.
PROJEKT ZETA
Projekt Zeta creates participatory art formats that invite people to ask questions, shift perspectives and experience the festival in new ways. Their installations are not simply observed – they come to life through the people who interact with them.
Bringing together art, architecture, music and cultural education, the interdisciplinary collective creates performative works that encourage exchange, connection and shared experiences. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, Projekt Zeta opens up a space where curiosity matters more than certainty and participation is always part of the artwork.

RIBANA SCHMIDT
Ribana creates multisensory spatial installations that act like gateways into new perspectives. Working across media, materials and often in collaboration with other artists, she builds immersive worlds that reflect, question and reassemble social structures.
Between utopia and dystopia, her works open up spaces that shift and evolve through the interaction of visitors. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, Ribana invites audiences to step inside, engage and see the familiar from a different angle.
Links:
SASHA GOLD
Sasha Gold gives discarded objects a new life. Her work moves between transformation, pop art, upcycling and the question of what becomes visible when things are removed from their original context.
With Why not? Everybody’s Darling, she transforms an old Saab 900 into a shimmering sculpture covered in fragments of mirror. Once a scrap car, then a dancefloor, now a reflective body, the installation absorbs light, movement and its surroundings, constantly reassembling them into something new. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, Darling becomes a place where memory, material and the festival moment merge.

VICTOR GUERITHAULT
Victor Guerithault brings art into the air. Born in Paris, the designer creates kites and lightweight aerial structures that exist somewhere between play, architecture and poetic object.
His work invites people not only to watch, but to build, transform and set things in motion themselves. Based on simple geometric forms, his system allows for hundreds of possible constructions, creating social moments, memories and small dreams in the sky. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, Victor Guerithault brings this unique blend of lightness, design and shared experience to Hamburg.

THOMAS NOHL
Thomas transforms social and political ideas into objects that catch the eye, challenge expectations and invite reflection. Based in Duisburg, the maker combines design, craftsmanship and activism to create works that are both playful and thought-provoking.
For MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, he once again takes over a Citylight installation on the festival grounds, bringing art into public space where people naturally pass by. A work that sparks conversations and shows how design can become a powerful form of expression.
MOTS
MOTS bring surreal forms, organic lines and large-scale visual worlds into public space. Founded by Diogo Ruas and Jagoda Cierniak, the visual art duo works across murals, street art and interdisciplinary projects, blending abstract and figurative elements.
Inspired by nature, urban environments and social themes, their works transform places and open up new perspectives. With murals in more than 30 cities worldwide, MOTS bring their international street art energy to MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026 in Hamburg.

fEOfL!P
fEOfL!P works where illustration, street art and public space come together. With a background in spray paint, mixed media and traditional techniques, he creates large-scale murals that combine collage, mosaic and architectural elements.
His practice ranges from screen printing and participatory sculptures made from reused materials to workshops and urban art projects across more than ten countries. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, [Artistname] brings this versatile, experimental energy to Hamburg, showing how art can transform spaces and connect people.

Maxima Vischer
Maxima combines painting with art history while making both more accessible. Originally from Cologne and now based in Hamburg, she is passionate about bringing art beyond traditional cultural spaces and into everyday life. Her paintings invite viewers to immerse themselves without prior knowledge and discover their own meanings.
For MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, Maxima creates a space for letting go. Balancing familiar forms with open, dreamlike imagery, her work invites visitors to lose themselves in the festival atmosphere – free of expectations, open to curiosity and entirely at their own pace.

AFC
AFC – All Female Crew has been part of Hamburg’s graffiti scene since 1996. Founded in Altona, the all-female crew stands for colour, attitude and the mission to make women’s voices more visible in public space.
Their work speaks of strength, self-determination and empowerment, showing how powerful graffiti can be when different perspectives come together. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, AFC brings this energy to Hamburg: bold, united and full of colour.

Patrick Krawczyk
Patrick Krawczyk brings colour, movement and attitude together. The Hamburg-based illustrator, animator and graphic designer is especially drawn to projects that move people, strengthen communities and make spaces more visible, particularly within queer and FLINTA* contexts.
His work is colourful, dynamic and full of energy, while still carrying depth and meaning. It speaks of joy, self-determination, visibility and love for oneself and others. At MS DOCKVILLE Festival 2026, Patrick brings this blend of good energy, awareness and community love to Hamburg.
