Phohda Festival Slovakia Sells Out In Record Time, Increases Capacity

Pohoda Festival in Slovakia has sold out all available 30,000 tickets for its upcoming 30th anniversary, July 8-11 at Trenčín Airport, in record time. But there’s good news for all who’ve missed out, as organizers are increasing the festival’s capacity by 10%.

Selling out this far in advance is a historic first for the festival, less than three months before the start of its 30th anniversary edition.

Thanks to the capacity increase all categories of three-day tickets will remain available until midnight (Wednesday May 15 to Thursday May 16), with a limited number of four-day tickets also available until sold out. These tickets give festivalgoers access to Pohoda Festival’s Extra Day on June 8, headlined by The Cure.

It is the first time, Pohoda is taking place across four days. The lineup on July 8 also features The Twilight Sad, Just Mustard, and Denis Bango.

The remaining three days, July 9 to 11, will see performances by Gorillaz, The Prodigy, Lykke Li, Denzel Curry, IDLES, Oliver Tree, Apashe & Brass Orchestra, Action Bronson, Emilíana Torrini, Baxter Dury, and many more.

Organizers have announced that they will adapt the grounds of the Trenčín airport, increase the capacity of the free visitor campsites, redesign the area in front of the main stage, and expand the largest enclosed stage.

Additional sanitary facilities will also be added, and delay towers will be placed at the main stage to ensure high-quality sound at all concerts on the largest open-air stage.

To make your journey to and from the festival easier, the organizers also announce that tickets for special bus routes that will operate not only from Slovakia, but also from the Czech Republic, Austria, and Hungary, will go on sale soon.

A three-day adult ticket for Pohoda Festival 2026 costs €169 ($199), a four-day ticket is available for €278 ($327). There are discounted junior and kids tickets on sale, as well as Glamping option.
