May 16-17-18 2025, WIRE Festival proudly returns to Knockdown Center for its fourth edition. This year sees the festival launch into its most ambitious form to date with 50 hours of nonstop music across four stages, from 8pm Friday until 10pm Sunday.
In the Main Hall, Stage 1 features both international and local talent while Stage 2 is dedicated to crew takeovers from Berlin’s Pornceptual and Amsterdam’s SPIELRAUM. Additionally, the iconic WHOLE Festival takes over the outdoor stage on Saturday for a full day of programming. WIRE runs an open-air daytime session on Sunday as well. The all-night Ambient Stage will once again return, offering an opportunity for some of the festival’s favorite artists to stretch out into fresh sonic territory. And, of course, WIRE will host panel discussions in collaboration with RA that tackle some of the most pressing issues in electronic music today. Finally, as with all previous years, WIRE will present bespoke lighting installations throughout the venue.
