About

Wave-Gotik-Treffen has been held in Leipzig every Whitsun weekend since 1992, and is the world's biggest gathering of the goth scene.

Concerts and parties fill dozens of Leipzig venues, from the Agra exhibition halls to churches and clubs, covering goth, darkwave, industrial, post-punk, EBM and neofolk. The costumes are as much a part of it as the music, with a Victorian picnic as one of the highlights.
