Superbloom Wraps in Munich as Olympiastadion Renovation Nears

The two-day pop festival highlighted a civic-minded program that mixed sustainability initiatives with science outreach.

Overview

  • Organisers reported about 60,000 attendees per day, while t-online put total turnout at roughly 100,000 for the weekend, leaving the exact figure unresolved.
  • Shawn Mendes, Bebe Rexha, Tiësto, Post Malone, Raye and other acts delivered the marquee performances across multiple stages.
  • Reports described a largely peaceful event with complaints about long queues, poor stadium acoustics, confusing wheelchair-accessible routes and some exit closures during teardown.
  • Hozier used his set for political remarks, calling for a free and self-determined Palestine, as FC Bayern figures including Leon Goretzka and Giulia Gwinn were seen among festivalgoers.
  • The stadium will close for renovation starting in October, with coverage differing on a two- versus three-year shutdown, and organisers said Superbloom will return in 2026 at a different Munich venue to be announced soon.
