HipHop Heat 2026

Hip hop and rap concert.

After the successful kick-off in 2024 with none other than Chakuza as the main act, the HipHop Heat event series is now entering the next round - and with an absolute heavyweight of the German rap scene: Olli Banjo!

Behind HipHop Heat is Felix Urbina, founder of Kallapz Studio, who has been revitalizing the Linz underground for years with his film and music production company. Together with in-house producer and rapper Grandmaster Flow, he is pursuing a clear mission: to bring national hip-hop stars to Linz - to make the city visible as an up-and-coming hip-hop capital and take the cultural pulse to a new level.

In 2026, HipHop Heat will once again bring together national and local greats - in an evening full of beats, bars and movement. Headliner Olli Banjo, one of Germany's most influential and innovative MCs, will be joined on stage by !illflow, Lyrika, DJ Dub and the explosive Synergie Dance Crew.

The whole thing takes place in the legendary Stadtwerkstatt Linz - the hotspot for urban culture and creative energy.
