The story

Nordkette Wetterleuchten Festival in Innsbruck

A two-day electronic-music festival staged at the Seegrube station on Innsbruck's Nordkette mountain, reached only by cable car, where house, electropop and experimental electronic acts play at nearly 1,900 metres above the city, with on-site camping available for attendees staying overnight on the mountain, a format the festival has sustained for more than two decades.

A cable car built to link Innsbruck's old town to the mountains above it doubles, for one July weekend, as the only way up to a dance floor set at 1,905 metres.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The festival is accessible only by the Nordkettenbahn cable car, with no road access to the Seegrube site, and takes place at 1,905 metres, making it one of the higher-altitude music festivals in Europe

02

The mystery stays covered

On-site camping lets attendees stay overnight on the mountain itself, and capacity is limited to roughly 1,100 festival-goers, keeping it markedly smaller and more intimate than typical city electronic-music festivals

03

The city starts moving

The genre range spans house, electropop and electro-experimental sounds from both international touring acts and local Tyrolean artists, set against the Alps on one side and Innsbruck's city lights on the valley floor below on the other
