This year adds another layer: the festival game, a more concrete Kids Zone, satellite internet, merch, a repaired lake, a calm tea house, a food zone and practical facilities to make the whole weekend easier.

IT / Revolution Party Italy / Screaming Bonsai. Tribal groove, deep atmospheres and an Italian trace from Vienna.
AID is a DJ and producer who has lived in Austria for the last three years, while shaping his sound in Italy across underground parties, beach gatherings, smaller festivals and street parades. That is where his signature formed: tribal energy, deep atmospheres and a strong connection to the dancefloor.
Outside music, AID is also a professional chef, and that second passion naturally appears in his approach to sets. Like in the kitchen, he works with balance, intensity and emotion. Instead of flavours, he mixes hypnotic grooves, deep psychedelic textures, tribal rhythms and unexpected remixes of iconic tracks.
BO / Bolivia / Resina Records. Bolivia on SUNRiCE and a South American imprint in the lineup.
AMETRINA is heading to SUNRiCE all the way from Bolivia. Her musical trace runs through AMETRINA MUSIC and Resina Records, where psychedelic energy, dancefloor pressure and a South American imprint meet.
This is a name worth checking before the festival. Bolivia on SUNRiCE, Resina Records in the lineup and an energy we definitely do not hear on our hill every day.
One of the founders and our best-known name, reaching far beyond the boundaries of the festival.
ARNIE is one of the names connected to SUNRiCE from the beginning. One of the founders, one of those names that simply belongs to the whole thing, and at the same time our best-known name reaching far beyond the festival itself. Music has been part of his whole life: from music school through brass orchestra, bass guitar, rap crew and vinyl collecting all the way to chillout and psytrance. His selection is organic, folkloric, progressive, diverse and truly his own.
CZ / Subverse. Fresh energy, a wide range and a clear urge to experiment behind the decks.
Cassie has been appearing behind the decks since the end of 2023, but she definitely does not sound like someone who came just to look around carefully. Besides psytrance, she is not afraid to reach for tekno, DnB or hard techno.
She most often serves beats in Prague, for example at Cross Club or Centrala, but she has already moved other dancefloors too. In 2024 she co-founded the multi-genre Subverse crew with friends, focusing on DJing, events and graphics.
CZ / Olomouc. A dub/reggae crew and soundsystem bringing deep bass and a different groove.
Conscious Soldiers are a dub / reggae crew and soundsystem from Olomouc. On the hill, they always bring a different pressure, a different groove and a different colour to the night.
They are not playing SUNRiCE for the first time. They played with us last year and keep returning because this connection simply works. Expect a proper soundsystem vibe, deep bass and energy you can feel across the whole space.
A Budapest-based DJ and producer moving between psy and trance, euphoria and a slightly swampy atmosphere.
CSOMCSOM is a Budapest-based DJ and producer moving between psy and trance, bringing a euphoric and slightly swampy atmosphere into his sets.
He is one of the main organisers and residents of the Baraka team, and has been working with psychedelic music and production since 2022. Since then, he has released music on labels such as Teclab, Nofear, Hard and Fast, Vitesse Record and Curioscity Pill Berlin. He has also played festivals such as Sun Festival, Techlab Gathering, Ohfala Festival and 3DNA Festival.
More than 30 years on the electronic scene, psytrance since 2000, hi-tech since 2010.
DJ Cybernetixx has been active on the electronic dance scene for more than 30 years. It started with techno in 1991, then through other branches of electronic music he fully moved into psytrance in 2000 and added hi-tech in 2010. After moving to Brno he became part of the local scene and over the years played clubs, open airs and festivals across the Czech scene and beyond. After building his studio he also started creating music under the project Neural Spectrum.
CZ / Ivan Gröpl. Genre overlap, experience and a feel for groove.
Czida, real name Ivan Gropl, is another Czech trace in the lineup. His public musical footprint shows clearly that this is not a name locked into one genre drawer.
On SoundCloud you can find a tech-house mix, Deep&Neuro mix, Hard DNB mix and Spring Mix from him. He brings a wider musical range, a feel for groove and the ability to let the space ask for its own mood.
One of the founding fathers, Drtek, Butchers Bay Crew and SUNRiCE resident.
DAFFY is one of the founding fathers. He started DJing in 2007 as a member of Drtek crew, helping create the Olomouc Epilepsia parties. From drum and bass and tekkno, he gradually moved into psytrance after his first psytrance festival in 2010. Then came Butchers Bay Crew, the SUNRiCE team and years that made him a solid part of our story. Today he plays more recreationally, but at SUNRiCE he is still at home.
Our president, one of the founding fathers and a piece of SUNRiCE DNA connected to Butchers Bay Crew.
Daniel Binarstorm is our president, one of the founding fathers and one of the people without whom SUNRiCE would not be what it is. He has been connected to SUNRiCE from the roots until today. And the same goes for Butchers Bay Crew: that is not them, that is us. A crew connected to music, visuals, deco and the overall atmosphere around our events. Daniel is not just part of the lineup. He is part of the story.
CZ / Full On / Night Full On / GOA. A long road from techno and trance to psytrance and his own production.
Daniel Dantte has been around electronic music for a very long time. His first contact with techno came already in primary school, through tapes from Poland and Austria.
He got into DJing in 1997 through Pepsi and Coca-Cola promo events, where he started with techno and trance music. He used to perform as Mystique Magneto, played clubs and open airs, and in 2001 he helped start the MEADOW festival in Chocen with his friends.
After years of hard techno and classic trance, his path gradually moved toward psytrance. Today he combines Full On, Night Full On, GOA and his own production. He has played events such as SUNRiCE, Psychedelicious, Povalec, Cas hub, Vitani jara, Beats for Love, Fenix, Zase v Lese, and clubs including Cross, Prostor Zeme, Jilska 22 and Boss Bar.
Daniel Dantte returns to SUNRiCE with history, experience and the will to send energy back to the dancefloor.
Slovak melodic psytrance DJ and producer based in London, member of Ik-Tek Records.
DR. LU is a melodic psytrance DJ and producer from Slovakia, now based in London. Her style blends rhythm, emotion, energy and strong melodies with influences from Indian and Middle Eastern folklore and old-school dance music. She started mixing in 2022, has played across the UK and Europe, and since 2023 she has been part of Ik-Tek Records. Her debut single Power of Hope was released in May 2025.
FR / France. A French trace, psychedelic mood and darker night energy.
France sends another darker signal to SUNRiCE. DUAL DISORDER is a name that has already spent some time behind the decks and is definitely not coming just to fill a slot in the lineup.
Sometimes a long biography is not needed to feel the experience behind a name. DUAL DISORDER brings a French trace, psychedelic mood and a sound journey that will not be just a pretty background.
CZ / deco / stage atmosphere. Decorations, colors, shapes and stage elements that give the space its own face.
SUNRiCE is not only about music. It is also space, colors, shapes, lights and an atmosphere that has to be experienced.
And Elpsy is part of that magic. A decorator who has been creating some of our most beautiful stage elements and cuts for some time, giving our space its own face and feeling.
His work is not just putting something on the stage. It is a feeling for the place, music, light, forest and the energy of people under the stage. When you stand under the stage and feel that the whole place has a strangely beautiful soul, part of that is his work.
FI / SE / CZ forest. Funky, foresty psychedelic beats and a strange forest logic.
Fantasma is a Finnish guy from Sweden who is currently hiding somewhere in a Czech forest. He has been exploring and playing different forms of psytrance since 2004, when he played his first public set in the chillout at a Swedish goatrance party.
Today you can expect funky, foresty psychedelic beats, unexpected turns and a set that starts building its own unusual logic along the way. Playful, forest-minded and not built with a ruler.
Austrian representative of our crew, helping carry SUNRiCE beyond the borders.
FISCHMEHL is the Austrian representative of our crew, connected to SUNRiCE not only through music, but also through helping promote the festival abroad.
He launched his project in 2010 and has built a name with a sound that is hypnotic, driving, deep and cosmic at the same time. PsyTechno, Progressive, Full On, Twilight or Forest: depending on the time, space and people.
He has played across Europe, Asia and Latin America, with releases that moved beyond the dancefloor into labels and charts. Exactly the kind of name that can move a place and leave a trace behind.
This is not just another guest from outside. This is part of the SUNRiCE story beyond the borders.
DJ, decorator, crew gigolo, a permanent festival fixture and lover of old wrecks.
FLSON is one of the festival’s permanent fixtures. His first touch with electronic music came in 2002 at indoor techno parties. Since 2009 he has been involved in events as a DJ, later also as decorator and organizer. Since 2012 he has been part of Butchers Bay Crew. From techno, tekno and dnb, his path moved toward daytime progressive psytrance: playful, carefully selected and very much his own. Outside music, he is a lifelong lover of old wrecks.
Brno-based DJ, Shivadeco, BLIND VISION and a wide palette from forest to glitch hop.
Fractalizard is a DJ originally from Brno who has been active on the music scene for more than eight years. During that time he has appeared at many art and music events across the country, as well as at a number of well-known Czech festivals.
He has long been part of the psytrance crew Shivadeco, where he is active not only as a DJ, but also as a decorator. Together with his DJ companion Snaketake, he has also been developing the BLIND VISION project and crew for several years, building their own soundsystem intensively.
His musical palette reaches from forest and dark psytrance through tekno, dub, zenon, chillout and deep dubstep to glitch hop and other genres. Expect a name that does not treat music as one straight line, but as a wide and living space.
Outside the stage, Fractalizard is currently finishing his bachelor studies at FaVU in Brno, in the Sculpture studio, where his final work is a three-meter concrete fountain shaped as a defragmented hexagonal Tibetan stupa.
This is another name you definitely do not want to miss on the hill.
Catalunya / CZ. A live electronic project between science, technology and underground psychedelia.
FUER is a live electronic project at the intersection of science, technology and underground psychedelic culture. Originally from Catalunya and now based in the Czech Republic, he has spent years inside the hypnotic pulse of the Czech underground tekno scene.
His sound connects deep mental and tribe atmospheres with psytrance energy, analogue synthesis, modular improvisation and dark textures. This is not just playing tracks, but a live system changing in real time.

CZ. Another Czech trace in the lineup, a little mysterious and exactly because of that interesting.
Sometimes a long biography is not needed to spark curiosity. GLOBEGG arrives as another Czech trace in the SUNRiCE 2026 lineup: a little mysterious, a little hard to read, and exactly because of that worth paying attention to.
No big words and no unnecessary labels. Here we will let the music, the space and the moment on the hill speak for themselves. GLOBEGG will show his place directly on the dancefloor.
CZ / fractals / chillout visuals. Original fractal projections for the chillout, built without ready-made templates.
This year, the chillout gets its own visual world. Gurroa enters the space as the creator of abstract fractal projections, built with his own programs since 2015.
No ready-made templates and no safe minimum. Just original visual production, abstraction, colors, movement and fractals slowly unfolding through the space.
He has also projected at Masters of Puppets 2022 and created the game Fraktalandia, with music by Raaya. In the chillout, expect original fractal projections that will not be just background decoration, but another layer of the SUNRiCE atmosphere.
MX / Hugo Riveroll. A piece of Mexican psytrance history and a return to deep sound.
Hamelin is one of the pioneers of the psytrance scene in Mexico and among the early international representatives of the genre and its branches. He has played in more than 10 countries and released music on labels around the world.
After years on the scene he also entered the film world as Hugo Riveroll, but music never let him go. Today he creates in San Cristobal de las Casas in Chiapas, focusing on sound exploration, audio design and new live acts.
CZ / Butchers Bay Crew. A person who does not only play this festival, but helps build it.
Creator of iron structures, builder of the bar and one of the people without whom SUNRiCE would not be what it is. He first stood behind the decks in 2009 with drum and bass records.
Under the name Harry Junior you may know him from dnb stages; as Hardydam he moves into psybreaks and psytrance experimentation. This is not just another lineup name. This is someone who plays the festival and builds it too.
A Brazilian Psy Free-Form and Suomisaundi project following its own path.
We are adding a name that follows its own path and has represented Brazilian Psy Free-Form and Suomisaundi around the world for years.
Hongos Longos is the project of Jonas Coute from Rio de Janeiro, a multi-instrumentalist educated at UFRJ. He started producing music at the age of 13, made his first computer track in 1998 and released his first solo album in 2003.
His sound is known for wide stylistic variety from ambient and progressive to night, goa and folk, a range of roughly 70-170 BPM, acoustic instruments such as cavaquinho, flute and percussion, Brazilian rhythmic influence and live sampler manipulation directly in the set.
He has released 9 albums, 14 EPs, dozens of compilation tracks and more than 15 hours of music in total. He is also part of the parallel audiovisual project Reipas Longos with Finnish artist Petri Pajunen.
His latest album brought together 12 projects from 7 countries in collaborations with a Brazilian theme. Behind the project is also Random Records, a non-profit label that sends all profit to Indigenous peoples through Survival International.
He has played major Brazilian festivals such as Universo Paralello, Earth Dance and Zuvuya, performed in Israel as a headliner alongside Fractal Cowboys and, since late 2023, has been actively touring the Brazilian festival scene again.

CZ / chill stage deco / light objects. Light objects for the chill stage, cloud-like forms and a dreamy landscape in the yurt.
This year, the chill stage in the yurt will be shaped by Baru Zagorova and the premiere of her original light objects: Junkiacky.
Cloud-like forms, glowing structures and a dreamy landscape will grow through the whole space, creating a softly psychedelic world where time, gravity and the border between dream and reality start to dissolve.
The atmosphere will be completed by cute little mice from Elwira, turning the space into more than decoration: a small glowing shelter for rest, dreaming and slowly drifting between music and imagination.
Brazilian live act and one of the first announced names for SUNRiCE 2026.
KADUM LIVE brings Brazilian energy and a live psytrance set built on pressure, movement and the moment. This is the kind of name that does not need a long explanation: press play, lift your head and let the dancefloor work.
AT / Psyfelden. Austrian certainty, melodic psytrance, Full On and Night Psy.
DJ Katana returns to SUNRiCE from the Austrian Pinzgau region near Salzburg. He is a veteran of the electronic scene and has been behind the decks since the 90s.
His sound ranges from melodic psytrance through crushing Full On to intense Night Psy. Last year he also brought a bow and archery workshop, but this year the focus is mainly on what he brings behind the decks.
CZ / SUNRiCE Crew. Our youngest crew member, a multi-genre DJ with clear dancefloor energy.
KLEI-NY is the youngest member of the crew and maybe the most energetic one. He has been dedicated to music for 10 years, has moved through many genres, stood behind smaller events in Unicov and shaped his approach into sets that are not random, but carefully built rides.
His sets are detailed, full of energy and often prepared months in advance. He enjoys playing from four decks, connecting different musical elements and telling his own story through sound.
CZ / live drums / SIIKUENS / Drumbreakerz. A live engine of electronics, hands and rhythm.
Zdenek "Kobylka" Vymlatil will also appear with us as part of the SIIKUENS live act, but it would be wrong to leave him only in the background. KOBYLKA DRUMS is a Czech pioneer of combining DJ sets and live drums since 2000.
He has collaborated with many Czech DJs across styles from techno and house to drum'n'bass, and has played clubs as well as major festivals such as Let It Roll, Beats For Love, Pohoda, Rock for Churchill and Colours of Ostrava. Kobylka is not just accompaniment, but a live engine that can push blood, sweat and the moment into an electronic set.
CZ / Active Meditation Music. Organic textures, acid, bass, ceremony and a live hardware setup.
Kryzka Nadzemsky lives and creates in Prague and has been involved with music since an early age. The NADZEMSKY project officially started in 2020 and has since been shaping its own sound.
His music combines organic textures, strong basslines, 303 acid lines and subtle melodies. For SUNRiCE he brings a live set with a hardware setup including an MPC sampler, Korg Electribe and Roland TB-3.
CZ. Psytrance, psychill, ambient, dub and trip-hop with a strong sense of atmosphere.
Radek aka KUSVEKYAKAKAO started creating and recording his first mixes around 2005. From the beginning it was clear that his world would not be limited to one direction.
He moves through psytrance, psychill, ambient, dub and trip-hop. Since 2007 he has played occasional events at home and abroad, with sets also heard at festivals such as Digital Forest, Ufo Bufo and Beats For Love.
Resident leak and a name connected to the home SUNRiCE energy.
kW-asar, also known as Kwasar, is a home resident and a name directly connected to our SUNRiCE energy. He belongs to the part of the lineup that does not need unnecessary noise around it, but knows exactly when to push and when to let the space breathe.
CZ / Studio 54 / Coconut DJs. A long-time friend, supporter and DJ with more than 20 years behind the decks.
Not everyone has to be a crew member to be part of the family. That is exactly LanDchi: our loyal supporter, long-time friend and someone who has been connected with us for many years.
Founder of Coconut DJs, resident of Prague's Studio 54 and above all a tireless DJ with more than 20 years behind the decks. His sets combine tech-house, techno and house music with a focus on modern sound, flow and energy that keeps the dancefloor warm.
A banger from the German psytrance scene. DJ, artist, producer, designer and a hybrid stylistic ride.
LEOCITAS is another banger from the German psytrance scene. DJ, artist, producer, designer, calligraphy, graffiti, bodyart, photography, videography, editing and healthy vibes. His musical path started with instruments, voice and production, and later fully moved behind the decks in Berlin. His style runs through teknoid, groovy, funny, funky, hard and faster psy, but also chill and relaxxx moods. Variety all the way.
Libor Fiala from Púchov, member of Psyalaska Tribe Slovakia, hypnotic groovy night psytrance.
Libor Fiala aka DJ Liborski comes from Púchov and has been behind the decks since 2005. He started in Shaka club with progressive house played purely from vinyl, but psy music had always been close to him. After moving to Austria he expanded to regional events, and since 2020 he has been fully dedicated to psytrance. Today he is part of Psyalaska Tribe Slovakia. His sound is hypnotic, groovy night psytrance with smooth mixes and hypnotic harmony.
CZ / Organic House Moravia. Flow, sun, movement and organic house energy behind the decks.
MARYJANKA has had music in her since childhood: from flute, clarinet and saxophone to a turning point at CzechTek 2003, where she discovered electronic music and its transformative power.
In 2008 she immersed herself in DJing, searched for her own path and moved through breakcore, raggacore and fairytale melodies. After returning behind the decks in 2019, she found a new direction in melodic & organic house: music that breathes, flows and naturally opens space for dance.
AT / Open Mind Group. A returning Austrian name that builds a set as a slowly opening journey.
Mataraja from St. Polten, Austria, returns to SUNRiCE. Last year we welcomed him for the first time, and this year we continue with another chapter.
He has been a member of Open Mind Group for several years and brings a set that is not built on effect for effect's sake. His strength lies in harmony, gradual build-up and a path that slowly opens, layers and pulls you deeper.
CZ / Martin Mazáč. A new live chapter with roots reaching roughly 20 years back.
MAZDYS Live, real name Martin Mazac, has been active as a live project only since last year, but his musical past reaches about 20 years back. In the past he was involved in production and playing vinyl records, then came a long break when music stepped aside for a while.
During that pause he gathered new knowledge, shaped his approach to production and gradually returned to sound in a new form. MAZDYS Live is not a random comeback, but the return of someone who took his time, rebuilt his tools and now comes with his own live expression.
SK / PsYachTronic. A Slovak regular, a big favourite and honest energy on the hill.
MIXXO is one of our big favourites, a regular and a kind soul whose place with us has long been clear. As a representative of the Slovak PsYachTronic family, he does not feel like an extra name on SUNRiCE, but like someone who belongs on our hill.
When he appears in the lineup, we know it will be honest, natural and with the heart in the right place. If you know him, you know. If not, it is time to check him out.
PL. A trance foundation, a psytrance imprint and the urge to search for new combinations.
NOV.SAVEUR is an artist who does not fit into simple genre boxes. He balances between different forms of trance, while psytrance and cross-genre mixes hold a special place in his musical world.
His style keeps evolving, from the Indian-psy track Mama Shiva to Unreal in a classic hard trance spirit with Polish trance vocalist Emily Orchard. Genres are not borders for him, but material for building his own sound journey.
CZ. Energetic tech-house and house groove since 2006.
Peet V has been active on the music scene since 2006. He has moved through various styles and from 2011 started focusing more on dance music and organising events.
His sets are built on energetic, driving tech-house and house. He has played Prague and Moravian clubs, experienced club operations and also helped organise a music festival in the Sumperk region.
CZ / Kalimeros / Fullon / UFO BUFO Crew. Psytrance experience, VJing and an Ostrava trace.
Pluturnik has been active in the psytrance scene since 2015, gradually building a solid place among names that are definitely not just there to fill the lineup. In 2017 he started collaborating with Kalimeros crew, and since 2022 he has been part of Fullon, where he also expanded into VJing.
Since 2025 he has also been active under UFO BUFO Crew, contributing not only to the music side but also to the visual side of events. His sets are energetic, hypnotic and built to keep both tension and flow.
AT / Digital Frequency Records. Honest DJing, experience since 1995 and love for the groove.
ProTuberance has been part of the scene since 1995. He started on the legendary Technics SL-1210 turntables, learning beatmatching from the ground up by ear, feel and a real passion for vinyl.
Today he plays on Pioneer CDJ-2000NXS, but the soul of his sets remains the same: honest mixing, precise timing and connecting tracks into one musical path. His sound ranges from drum and bass, house, minimal and techno to melodic psytrance.
LK / Kabiri Records / Yokshaa Records. Twisted dark forest from Sri Lanka.
Psilostatic comes from Sri Lanka and brings twisted dark forest soundscapes in the 148-155 BPM range to SUNRiCE. This sound does not lead you along a straight path, but pulls you deeper into the forest and the night.
He is signed to Kabiri Records and Yokshaa Records. Kabiri Records released the compilation Echoes Of The Abyss, compiled by Psilostatic, so this is a dark trace with a clear signature.
CZ / Silent Studio. Sound design, European experience and darker psychedelia with real weight.
Psyrix is not just a DJ behind the decks. He approaches sound with technical precision, experience and his own unorthodox signature. In 2010 he completed his sound engineering studies in Amsterdam and then founded Silent Studio.
His style stands outside the usual template and leans toward a unique blend of psychedelic full power, twilight and dark psytrance with strong rhythm, intense atmosphere and a drive that can take firm control of the dancefloor.
AT / RetroFuture Trance. Hi-tech precision, melodic depth and a returning name from last year.
Quellcode is a name many people remember from last year. Daniel began his journey into psychedelic arts in 2010, and after ten years on the scene with his project BoB, a new frequency emerged: Quellcode.
His sound is built on hi-tech precision, melodic depth, hypnotic harmonies and beats that rewrite the source code of the dancefloor.
CZ / Zero Point. A producer from Vlasim with psytrance roots and a drum&bass overlap.
Jaroslav Fiala aka RAAYA is a Czech music producer from Vlasim who has been involved with electronic music since the early 1990s. Since 2008 he has been especially active on the Czech psytrance scene.
He has released several title tracks on Luk-si Records and another serial album through Supraphon. In 2025 he released Eather DR. Bass in a psy drum&bass style and also works as a music lecturer and producer.
SK / Brno / ZUN Radio. Slovak DJ, radio host, producer and occasional drummer.
SAMPLES is a Slovak DJ, host on DAB radio ZUN, producer and occasional drummer living in Brno. His journey started back in 1989 as a hip hop DJ and MC in Kosice.
From 1993 he moved toward dance music and built a wide musical perspective. He has lived in London and played in Israel, France and Hungary. Since 2021 he has been part of ZUN, a 24/7 house music radio station.
CZ / deco / visuals / stage atmosphere. Decorations, visual layers and a psychedelic world around the stage.
SUNRiCE is not only about lineup, sound and bass. It is also a visual world that pulls you in before you even step into the middle of the dancefloor.
ShivaDeco Visual is the team that has been with us for some time, helping create the unique atmosphere around the stage. Decorations, visual layers, details, colors and shapes turn the space into more than just a place for music: into a full psychedelic world.
These are people who understand that a stage is not only structure and lights. It is a gate, a place where music, forest, night, movement and the energy of people under the stage meet. When the stage lights up again this year, their signature will be part of it.
CZ / Independent. An electronic-acoustic live project with live drums, synths and dance precision.
SIIKUENS LIVE is a two-person electronic-acoustic project where DOWNBURST brings electronics, sequencers and synths, while KOBYLKA adds live electronic and acoustic drums.

CZ / KLBCK. Thirty years behind the decks, hands, technique and groove.

CZ / Freak Psychedelic. A Czech psytrance DJ with punk roots and darker energy.

His sets move mainly through Darkpsy, Psycore and Zenon energy.

CZ / TMS Soundsystem / Atd.Rezzet. Electronica, breakz and soundsystem spirit.
TMS Soundsystem will come to SUNRiCE with a selection from Atd.Rezzet soundsystem. His sound moves mainly around electronica and breakz: music built on groove, broken rhythms, atmosphere and careful selection.
Behind the decks, he prefers vinyl and turntables. If needed, he can also play from flash / MP3 through CDJs, but the core stays the same: selection, feeling and sound with character. Expect a set that steps a little outside the main psytrance line and brings another side of the festival sound.

AT / Open Mind Group / Screaming Bonsai. Austrian DJ with a melodic, playful and direct sound.
Van°Atius is an Austrian DJ with more than 14 years of experience on the scene. He started with tekkno and DnB, but dark forest and fullon eventually pulled him fully in.

AT. Flo's forest project with dark, playful and precise dark progressive energy.
Woidschratz is the project of Flo, a DJ and producer from Austria with roots deep in the forest. His sound combines driving basslines, dark yet playful soundscapes and a hypnotic journey between light and shadow.

No fearmongering and no unnecessary theory. Practical, understandable and open.
An open grower panel about how to think about space, light, water, mistakes and efficiency. Practical, without unnecessary theory and with space for questions.
More of a round table than a classic lecture. The focus will be common grower mistakes, blind alleys and things worth watching out for.
What works, what is unnecessary, what to skip completely and what is only a well-packaged marketing trick.
Henna ornaments, symbols, hand lines and small festival details. If you miss the first day, you can stop by in the second round.
There will be enough henna, so you do not need to worry about coming later. If you already have henna, you can have it improved, extended or completed.
Kamila will also be on site and can work with classic tattoo ink.
Golf without snobbery and without fear that you will not know what to do. Basic movement, grip, swings and mainly an easy way to try something you do not expect at a festival.
No tournament and no complicated science. Just hitting balls from an elevated spot next to the main stage.
You do not have to collect the balls. There are plenty of used ones, so if you want to try a proper hit, stop by.

Harm reduction without moralizing. How to listen to your body, notice warning signs, help a friend and get through the festival so you remember it the next day.

No moralizing, no unnecessary fear, with respect, information and an effort to point people in a safer direction.
Tea differently than a quick bag in a mug. Aroma, water, time, preparation and a small calm ritual for those who want to sit down between dances.
Martin will show that tea does not have to be only a bag in a mug. The talk will cover preparation, aroma, taste and tea culture.
Stop by either to hit a golf ball or tune into a cup.
A practical block by a professional firefighter and diver. How to think about safety near water, what diving with a tank involves and how to respond when first aid is needed.

He will also add practical first aid: what to do when something goes wrong, how to react in a crisis and how not to lose your head.
A light outdoor activity that can be tried without previous experience. Throw, hit the direction, laugh and find out why disc golf is an ideal daytime festival game.
Všolda will also bring a practice basket, so you can try disc golf directly in practice.
No complicated science. Disc in hand, aim, throw and try to hit the basket.
What it takes to run a club, event or scene long-term. Production, rules, people, operations, responsibility and things that are not visible from the outside but without which no culture works.
Everyone who organises events, helps the scene, deals with clubs, festivals, community or music operations is welcome.
An open talk about how the situation is evolving, what has become harder lately, what practical experience we have and what we can pass on to each other.
An expert mycological talk about Czech Psilocybe mushrooms as a natural phenomenon. Biology, ecology, history and wider context without unnecessary myths.
This is not a guide to picking or using mushrooms. Maks Houbit will guide us through Czech Psilocybe mushrooms from a scientific, biological, ecological and mycological point of view.
Expect photos, field experience, facts, context and space for questions. The Houbook publication will also be available on site.
If you want to show your art, host a workshop or teach others something, write to us and we will figure something out.
Map
The main route leads from Lipová-lázně railway station to Ski Areál Miroslav. During the day you can also head into the surroundings, because the Jeseníky mountains around the festival are a big part of the whole atmosphere.
You do not have to use only the traditional route. These are this year’s alternative links for people arriving on foot and by car. The links open in Mapy.com.
Routes for arriving by car if you do not want to use only the standard way.
Options for those who want to arrive by a different way than the main route.
Links to parking by Faunapark for people who want to leave the car lower and walk up.
Game Pass 2026
You enter the forest, but truly you enter layer after layer. Rhythm is the compass, the forest has its rules and the Game Pass is an optional extra layer for those who want to experience SUNRiCE from a different side.
The festival game is fully out this year. It is not mandatory, but if you join, you get a map, tasks, stamps, moments and another reason to move through the festival layer by layer.
Participation is voluntary. The game fee is 300 CZK. For presale, send 150 CZK to the transparent account 1288771094/3030.
In the payment note, write your name and delivery address, or write that you will pick it up at the bar on site under your name.
Do not look for shortcuts. Collect moments, connect points and let the map start moving.
The map shows where to drink, slow down, dance and reset. Stamps are proof of the path.
Rules are not walls. They are railings, so you can go deeper and the game stays fun for everyone.
The game always costs something and gives something back. Winners will receive prizes and a place in the game archive on this website.
Game Archive
This will be a living Game Pass archive. After each edition we will add the winners, a photo or a short note so the history of the game stays visible.
