January. Universo Paralello on Praia de Pratigi in Bahia starts on 27 December 2026 and runs until 4 January 2027. It takes place every two years. Two days later, on 6 January, Sola Luna holds a one-day Waterfall Festival on Koh Phangan, after cancelling its usual New Year beach edition in Khanom. More on our January page.
February. No confirmed dates yet. HillTop in Vagator, Goa, usually runs in early February.
March. A busy month. Rainbow Spirit, the former Rainbow Serpent, runs 5–8 March near Tallarook in Victoria; psytrance is one of three stages there. Tribal Gathering on Panama's Caribbean coast lasts 18 days (5–22 March) and starts as an indigenous immersion; its psytrance stage, the Lotus Stage, runs mainly in the second week. In Brazil, Flor da Vida celebrates its tenth anniversary on 13–14 March at Fazenda Meia Lua in Itirapina. Rabbits Eat Lettuce closes the month over Easter, 25–29 March, near Texas, Queensland, with psytrance as one strand among house, techno and bass. See all of them on our March page.
April and May. No confirmed 2027 dates in our guide yet.
June. Burning Mountain opens the European summer on 24–27 June at around 1,500 metres beside the Inn river in Zernez, Graubünden. Progressive and full-on on a Funktion-One system, with a kids' area and a healing area. More on our June page.
July. The densest month of the year. Ethereal Decibel, a non-profit festival in a 64-hectare park in Normandy, runs 1–4 July with progressive, darkpsy and techno. Masters of Puppets follows on 5–11 July, a week of darkpsy, hi-tech and forest that moves to a new site in Valeč, western Bohemia, for 2027. VooV Experience, running since 1991, is on 16–19 July in Putlitz, Brandenburg.
Boom celebrates 30 years on 18–25 July by the lake in Idanha-a-Nova, Portugal. Reports say all ticket categories are sold out. Ozora starts on 23 July and runs twelve days until 3 August at Dádpuszta in Hungary. The two overlap from 23 to 25 July. If you missed Boom, our July page lists the alternatives.
August. Mo:Dem runs 2–8 August in the woods near Primišlje, Croatia, with dark psychedelic trance and swimming in the Mrežnica river. Its tickets are personalised and non-transferable. New Healing in the Prignitz, Brandenburg, is a healing and wellness week on 9–15 August; the electronic floors run mainly at the weekend, and the share of psytrance is unclear. Indian Spirit in Eldena, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, closes the German summer on 25–30 August with six stages; its presale has been open since 1 September 2026. More on our August page.
September. Own Spirit runs 1–6 September on the Santa Ana reservoir near Baldellou, Aragon: full-on, progressive, goa and forest, plus a healing area and a family zone. Details on our September page.

These festivals are active but had not published 2027 dates as of October 2026. Where our records name a usual month, we give it.
A few well-known names are not on the 2027 calendar. Antaris Project has been paused since founder Uwe Siebert died in March 2025. Shankra cancelled 2024, 2025 and 2026. Psy-Fi cancelled 2025 and has announced nothing since. Esoteric was cancelled the night before opening in 2025. Hai in den Mai did not take place in 2026, and its future is unclear.
The status of Noisily (2025 cancelled), Eclipse (last edition 2022), Freedom (last edition 2019), Labyrinth (2025 edition cancelled) and Woodstoock & Tríade Trance (no edition found after 2023) is unknown.
Sell-outs come early now. Boom 2027 was reported sold out more than half a year ahead, and Dragon Dreaming and Psyfly both sold out in 2026. If a festival is high on your list, follow its official channels and buy when sales open.
Buy only through the official ticket shop. Some festivals, like Mo:Dem, personalise tickets and refuse entry if the name does not match. Check what your ticket covers too: camping is included at most of the week-long festivals above, but not everywhere.
Not sure which sound you want? Our guide to psytrance subgenres helps you pick between a full-on week and a forest week, and the first-timer guide covers the practical side. For a wider overview by region, see psytrance festivals worldwide.
