who pulls you out of the mud in an emergency?

We only offer payment in cash on the festival site.

There are cash machines in Pasewalk (10-15 minutes by car, 20 minutes by bike). Please make sure you have enough cash before you travel to the festival!

Car tickets and any remaining tickets can also be paid for by card at the venue.

Please leave your dogs at home. Guide and therapy dogs are allowed on the festival grounds, but please keep them on a leash at all times.

On one of the tent pitches, dogs are not allowed. The farmer there owns flocks of sheep and free-roaming sheepdogs, which could cause problems. However, we will find a suitable campsite where people with guide and therapy dogs can feel completely at home.

We will provide you with alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks at our bars. You are allowed to bring your drinks onto the festival site, but please refrain from using glass bottles, which are a source of danger and which we have to dispose of at great expense. Our festival crews are partly financed by the proceeds from the bars.

At the food court you will be provided with various vegetarian and vegan dishes at food stalls. There will be breakfast, coffee and cake as well as hot meals. To protect the environment, we have decided not to sell meat-based food on the Detect Classic Festival site.

This year, for the first time, there will be a gluten-free and coeliac-safe stall at our festival.

The supply of drinking water on site is guaranteed. Drinking water points are signposted and marked. There is no running water on the camping pitches. Please bring reusable water bottles and/or jerry cans with you.

We are eager to hear your opinion and look forward to feedback, constructive criticism and, of course, praise. Just send us an e-mail to: hello@detectclassicfestival.de

The Detect Classic Festival has been held at Schloss Bröllin (Bröllin Castle) since 2022.

The 800-year-old listed estate is located in the German-Polish border region around 40 km west of Szczecin and 130 km north of Berlin.

The former manor was converted into an "International Art Research Location" by a few creative minds in 1992 and, as the location of the schloss broellin e.V., is an important breeding ground for musical and artistic movements in the countryside.

The adress is:

Schloss Bröllin · Bröllin 3 · 17309 Fahrenwalde

Rubbish bins are available on the premises.

Please keep the area clean and bring pocket ashtrays.

The nearest train station, which can be reached by local and long-distance transport, is in Pasewalk. This can be easily reached from Berlin by ICE in just under 1.5 hours and by local transport in around 2.5 hours.

Pasewalk station is only a 15 minute drive from the festival site.

We offer a free and barrier-free shuttle bus between the train station and the festival site on Friday and Sunday. Our shuttle times for 2026 are:

Of course you can bring your own bikes or arrive by bike. Watch out! There is currently no separate cycle path on the main road from Pasewalk to Schloss Bröllin.

At the Detect Classic Festival, the aim is for people to come together through music, regardless of their background, gender, disability, age or religion.

If boundaries are crossed, if you feel harassed, discriminated against or simply uncomfortable, or if you witness such behaviour in others, our Awareness Team is there for you round the clock. They will listen, offer support if requested, and focus on making the venue a safer space for those affected. This applies to any form of discrimination. In such cases, removal from the venue may be a possible consequence.

On our site, there is an Awareness Help Point in the form of a tent and an adjoining Awareness Garden. In addition, there is a quieter, indoor Awareness Room.

You can find out where to find us from the site map, notices and signage on site, as well as at any bar or by asking anyone with a walkie-talkie. Please feel free to speak to us if you notice any barriers or need support to move around the site more safely.

You can recognise the Awareness team by their purple T-shirts (with ‘AWARENESS’ written on them), their orange bum bags and, at night, by their fairy lights.

If you have any suggestions or questions before, during or after the festival, please feel free to email us at awareness@detectclassicfestival.de.

You can read our detailed explanation of Awareness at our festival here.

By entering the festival site, you expressly agree to our Awareness policy.

People with disabilities can purchase discounted festival tickets from the Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern shop. Carers are admitted free of charge.

There is an accessible toilet on the festival site (in the German-Polish Centre). The shuttle bus is accessible.

Most of the site is paved or consists of grassy areas. The same applies to the camping sites. We recommend that wheelchair users bring a companion to help them get around the site. You are also welcome to contact our accessibility team to arrange specific support, for example. Send an email to: awareness@detectclassicfestival.de

Our website is not accessible. People with visual impairments should be able to navigate our website. If you find that something isn’t working, please let us know: hello@detectclassicfestival.de or detect@festspiele-mv.de

We are currently working on making all key information about the festival accessible to people with learning difficulties.

Our wayfinding systems, our programme booklet, etc. are not accessible.

In 2025, we initiated processes to make our festival more accessible in the future and give more people the opportunity to celebrate together and enjoy the music.

Do you have any questions or suggestions on how we can become more accessible? Send us an email at: hello@detectclassicfestival.de or detect@festspiele-mv.de

Our security staff will ensure that everything runs smoothly at the entrance and on the site. If you or anyone else on the site is in trouble, please do not hesitate to contact the security staff, bar staff, anyone working at the festival or the awareness team - they will be happy to help you. Incidentally, the security staff are instructed to follow the instructions of the festival management and the awareness crew. If you observe anything else, please do not hesitate to report it to us.

Bags will be searched for glass bottles and dangerous objects at the entrance. By purchasing a ticket or walking through the portal, you expressly agree to our rules and our awareness concept.

We are a family- and child-friendly festival. Since 2023, we have had our own kids' floor with the Octopus Collective.

Admission is free for children up to 12 years of age. However, to help us plan better, we kindly ask you to register in advance by emailing .

We want to break down barriers. People with disabilities can purchase discounted festival tickets at the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern Festival shop. Accompanying persons do not need a festival ticket. However, please let us know in advance if you are travelling with an accompanying person.

There are currently no job vacancies, but we look forward to receiving your unsolicited application: hello@detectclassicfestival.de

The Detect Classic Festival thrives on the commitment of many hard-working hands. Numerous volunteers support us every year. You can find more information about volunteering here.

There are no age restrictions for the area outside of the festival site. From 10 pm onwards, children under the age of 14 may only move around the festival site when accompanied by an adult guardian. Between 1 am and 7 am, the premises are reserved for adults.

Loud music is played on the festival grounds, so please bring adequate ear protection for small children.

We welcome various journalists to the Detect Classic Festival.

Our in-house team films and photographs various concerts and captures the festival atmosphere.

We value your privacy and take care not to focus on individuals in intimate moments. If you do feel uncomfortable, please speak to our team. External film crews and photographers will also be made aware of the privacy of our guests.

We ask you to be as mindful when filming with your mobile phones as you would want other guests to be.

To ensure that everyone – young and old alike – can feel at home at the festival, we ask you to be considerate of children’s needs.

Please therefore take particular care to behave responsibly towards one another, especially in the evening and at night, and help families ensure that children feel welcome too.

Important:

From 10 pm onwards, children under the age of 14 may only move around the festival site when accompanied by an adult guardian. Between 1 am and 7 am, the premises are reserved for adults.

White paper wristbands are available for all children, on which you can write the name and telephone number of a guardian. This makes it easier to reunite you quickly should you lose sight of one another.

If you go missing a child or come across a child on their own, the Awareness Helpdesk is the place to go. There, we’ll help reunite children with their guardians.

Thank you very much for helping to make Detect a safe and considerate place for people of all ages.

In 2026, we’ll be offering any remaining tickets at the box office for an additional charge:

- Festival tickets with a €20 surcharge

- Day tickets with a €10 surcharge

It’s best to pick up your tickets in advance from our shop.

You can also buy car tickets at the entrance for €10. Card payments are accepted.

The ticket price includes a tent pitch.

If you wish to park in designated areas or stay overnight in your motorhome or camper van, you will need a separate car ticket. These can also be purchased on site for €10. You will receive a sticker for your car ticket at the entrance.

Your car sticker should be placed in a clearly visible position inside the rear window.

Please note: There are NO electricity or water connections for motorhomes!

Please present your tickets at check-in, either printed out or on your smartphone. We will then exchange your festival ticket for a festival wristband and your car ticket for a car sticker.

The Detect Classic Festival is organised by the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern Festival. When purchasing tickets from the pretix ticket shop, the organiser’s terms and conditions apply.

Tickets cannot be returned under any circumstances.

If you have any questions about buying tickets, please contact: detect@festspiele-mv.de

There are various camping areas in the vicinity of the festival site. In designated areas, you may only camp with a tent, but in most areas you may also camp with campers, vans or motorhomes. A tent site is included in the ticket price.

If you are travelling with a motorhome or camper, you will need a separate car ticket for each vehicle. You can obtain this either in our ticket shop or directly on site at the ticketing desk. Please be aware that the spaces for motorhomes and cars are limited. We recommend that you buy your ticket in good time.

Please note that there is no electricity or water connection for motorhomes on site.

Please keep the campsites clean and use pocket ashtrays for your cigarette butts. The camping areas are mostly sheep meadows. Music boxes, private parties and noise are expressly not permitted in the camping areas!
