WHAT IS DECIBEL

DECIBELS are measured by the INTENSITY OF SOUND. What started as a passion to gather the HARDER STYLES minded crowd in an outdoor event in 2002, grew to be a MASSIVE THREE-DAY FESTIVAL in the Netherlands. Decibel outdoor has become THE LOUDEST CITY ON EARTH, for those seeking the NEXT STEP in their craving for the Harder Styles.Every year in August we come together with 100.000 Harder Styles fanatics and hundreds of artists from talents to heavyweights. Always connected, always on the move and ready to LIVE LOUD!

WHAT TO EXPECT

Welcome to THE LOUDEST CITY on Earth – where harder styles fanatics unite for the ultimate weekend to LIVE LOUD. We believe in the POWER OF THE KICK, pure, raw, hard. We don't need anything extra, although it gives us an ADRENALINE RUSH when the BEAT matches the show light. We're high on that energy. Once you feel it, nothing will be the same.
THREE DAYS. ONE DESTINY. LIVE LOUD.


FANATIC FRIDAY marks your first steps into our cosmic realm. This is the day you've been waiting for – a BOLD taste of what's to come. Get ready for journey sets that honor our legacy while new generation talent ignites the future. Experience the XL Sound of Decibel and witness THE LAUNCH as the DARK HOURS transform our city from 22:00 to 01:00. The energy is 100% from the first kick.


LIVE LOUD SATURDAY unleashes the full festival experience across every corner of THE LOUDEST CITY. Explore the Decibel Boulevard, lose yourself in the Neon Forest, and discover hidden gems from the Legacy Fountains to the new City Beach. All harder styles collide as icons and anthems paint the perfect Saturday. When darkness falls, another dimension of sight and sound takes over for three hours of pure audio-visual mayhem.


SAVAGE SUNDAY takes LIVING LOUD to the extreme. This is where we set fire to the flame with the hardest, rawest, most SAVAGE experience possible. Everything is on the edge – harder music, darker atmosphere, intense marathons and fierce energy that connects the crowd like nothing else. One last day to give it ALL. IT'S NOW OR NEVER.


We love to take you on an adventure to PUSH OUR LIMITS in everything we do. Together we make it BIGGER. BETTER. LOUDER. We always go for that extra mile, and so do you. Even when you walk out of the gate back into "the real world," you'll be longing for the next journey of a lifetime at THE LOUDEST CITY. So take that chance, crank up the volume and LIVE LOUD!
