A Packed Weekend of Pure Madness
Decibel Outdoor isn’t a one-day fling; it’s a weekend-long love story with hard dance. Starting Friday and rolling straight through to Sunday night, this festival is your chance to go hard or go home (or just crash in your tent when your legs give out).

The vibes kick off strong on Friday, where the first parties set the tone for the weekend. Even the campsite transforms into a party haven, with stages popping off right in the middle of the camping grounds. It’s the perfect time to meet your neighbors, discover your new favorite artists, and get hyped for what’s to come.
Pro tip: The Friday lineup isn’t just a warm-up—it’s stacked. If you’re already itching to hear the first hard kicks of the weekend, you don’t want to miss the Friday Journey Sets!
LIVE LOUD SATURDAY
Ah, Saturday. With stages representing everything from euphoric hardstyle to brain-melting uptempo, this is where the real magic happens. Here’s what to expect: DECIBEL BOULEVARD, FOOD DISCTRICT, CITY BEACH, LEGACY FOUNTAINS, ELECTRIC FOREST, SYNTH VALLEY with the Mainstage in full force, the anthem show and the end show!
SAVAGE SUNDAY
Just when you think you can’t go any harder, Savage Sunday comes in hot. This is the grand finale, and Decibel makes sure you leave with no regrets (and maybe no voice). The energy shifts, the beats get heavier, and the crowd somehow finds the stamina to give it their all one last time.
Sunday’s lineup often features legendary closing acts, so save some energy—you’ll need it. And if you’re one of those superhumans still standing after the Sunday party? You’ve officially earned your Decibel stripes.
