Melt Festival announces its final line-up for 2022 edition

Names on the full listing include Arlo Parks, Fred Again.. and VTSS

Germany’s Melt festival has announced its completed lineup for 2022, following an initial announcement last year.

Taking place on June 9 through June 12, over 200 acts have been announced who’ll span 13 stages in total.

There will be more established acts sharing stages with up-and-coming artists, with the festival’s intention to blue genre boundaries ‘completely’.

Under the slogan #anewworld, names such as Clara Cuvé, Ellen Allien and MCR-T have been added, joining existing names including Mixmag cover stars Fred Again.., VTSS and Joy Orbison.

The 2022 return of the festival has marked a huge upscale of the festival: there are collaborations with Germany’s clubs and radio stations, plus seven new stages.

One of the stages, the Liquid Jungle Stage, will house collectives who showcase artists from the jazz and neo-soul scene. The new Ping Pong stage will house names such as Honey Dijon, Jayda G and Peggy Gou.
