GEMA I COLLECTION SOCIETY

We are implementing a pilot project together with GEMA and SoundAware for the automatic monitoring of live music – and you are part of it!

What does this mean for you?

No stress with setlists – nothing needs to be submitted manually anymore.
Fast, simple & complete tracking – nothing gets lost.
Faster and fairer royalty distribution – GEMA ensures more accurate payouts.
No effort & no costs for you – we take care of everything.

How does it work?
SoundAware automatically detects which songs are played – without making audio recordings. The captured signal is used solely for monitoring and is not stored or used for any other purpose. This ensures full transparency and fairness for you.

If you do not wish to participate, please let me know by Wednesday, July 1, 2026 at the latest. In that case, you will need to submit your setlist yourself.

The fee will be paid, unless explicitly agreed otherwise,
50% four weeks before the festival and 50% one week after the festival.

AWARENESS

At DEICHBRAND Festival, we have set out to further develop our festival with a focus on awareness and your well-being. We recognize that this is an ongoing process that we, as a festival team, want to shape together with all our staff, guests, and artists. Our awareness concept includes information that applies to everyone. Please read the following points carefully.

At DEICHBRAND, we want to promote respectful interaction. Therefore, we do not tolerate racism, sexism, or any other form of discrimination.
If you experience harassment or discrimination, you can receive support from our Awareness Team at any time.

Boundaries between guests/staff and artists (power imbalance)

You should be aware that there is always a power imbalance between fans or staff and artists. As a result, relationships, sexual encounters, and other interactions can be complicated, and you should take this into account in all your actions and communications.

Reference to the Awareness Team

We would appreciate it if you could mention the Awareness Team from the stage and emphasize that we do not tolerate discrimination or harassment, as we want to create a positive festival experience for everyone. As artists, you have a strong influence on the audience, and it would be great if you used your reach to help us create a safer space where everyone feels comfortable.

Please remember that festivals can also be stressful: take good care of yourselves and make sure to eat enough and drink plenty of water.

If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to contact Johanna (+49 179 8252620) from the Awareness Team, who will be on site.

It is important to us that we treat each other with sesitivity and respect. True to our motto: ONE FESTIVAL, ONE FAMILY, ONE LOVE.

With that in mind, we’re looking forward to an amazing DEICHBRAND 2026 with you!
