What is the Schallmauerfall Festival?
Mary Jane’s first official appearance took place 5 years ago at the Klingemühle (near Frankfurt Oder). After various stress tests, interviews (on mental as well as horizontal fitness), and ultimately a tree stump throwing contest at Paralia Finikounda in the scorching heat of Kalamata, she chose us.
We were to be the team with which she would enter the Arena Colossea Grande de Musica a tout le Monde. Boris, known for his nimble teeth. Luna, feared and feared alike. Eddi, who pinches very hard. Luigi, because she once did time with MJ. Carlo, the fastest tape measure in the West. Silja, the only one who can brush Boris’s teeth. Blaubi and his revenge. Bernd, who can do the splits with her arms. Feli, who dances with Bache. Biffi, because he can cook an empty fridge. And Luki, because he made Mary Jane an offer she couldn’t refuse.
With this lineup, Mary Jane realized with unshakably clear determination that we’re probably the right ones to achieve her mission: to break the sound barrier.
After its post-pandemic birth in the pine forests of eastern Germany, the festival migrated to Ferropolis, the City of Iron near Gräfenhainichen. We celebrated there for two years before moving on to Kieskuhle Broock, where we’re lucky enough to be again this year.
If you recognize yourself anywhere in the listed qualities of the SMF team, then come to the five-year anniversary of our madness. Mary Jane warmly welcomes you and your noses.
When and where does the festival take place?
The festival takes place from August 14-16, 2026 at Kieskuhle Broock, Alt Tellin (Feldweg, Broock 1, 17129 Alt Tellin). Our festival gates open on Friday from 4:00 PM and close on Monday at 12:00 PM.
How do I get to the festival?
From Berlin Hauptbahnhof, the RE5 train takes you to Sternfeld (Hohenmocker). From there, it’s about 7km to the grounds. Regular shuttles will run between Kieskuhle and Sternfeld, allowing arrivals and departures at any time from Friday to Sunday. More information will follow. By bicycle should also be doable. Campers, motorhomes, cars, monster trucks, hoverboards, and horses are welcome on the campsite.
How do I buy (and cancel) tickets?
You can reserve tickets directly through our website. Since our organization is not yet registered, these are initially reservations. Once the registration is complete, we will contact you to finalize payment.
You can cancel your ticket reservation free of charge until August 1, 2026 by reaching us via email at [email protected].
What do I need to bring?
We will again offer drinks at low prices – so you don’t need and shouldn’t bring those. For bigger appetites, there will be food trucks again this time. However, we ask you to bring enough provisions for the entire weekend. For the wardrobe, the same applies as last year: go all out. Here are a few ideas: Laser, Kerosene, Fire Beetle, Cream Puff, Knife Thrower, Zebra, Reed, Nail Scissors, Grass Snake, Homework, Acrobat, Indiana Jones, the Stone from Indiana Jones, Disco, Sunburn, Mary Jane’s Cellmate, Dragon, Arrest, Bull Neck, Protein Powder, Disco, Biffi’s Linguine ai Frutti di Mare, the new SaftzentraleTropicanaBarSalonRondell…
What do I need to keep in mind?
It would be great if you could help us again to leave the location clean and, given the generally high risk of forest fires in the region, to be especially careful with open fire, cigarettes, and glass. Unfortunately, we have to prohibit camping/gas stoves for safety reasons. Confetti remains subject to the maximum penalty. Please don’t bring / use / buy / ever think about it again.
A zero-tolerance policy against any form of discrimination, sexism, and racism is a matter of course for us. You can find more details in our Awareness Concept.
How can I pay on-site?
Our (SaftzentraleTropicana-) Bar (-SalonRondell) will run entirely on card payment. Food trucks accept partly cash, partly card. So we recommend bringing both.
