Island fever in Oberhausen: mega party under bright sunshine!
Yesterday one of the largest Mallorca parties in Germany took place in Oberhausen: the “Inselfieber”. The Rudolf Weber Arena was transformed into a festival playground that was bursting at the seams with over 35,000 visitors. With temperatures over 30 degrees and bright sunshine, the mood of the guests in the afternoon was simply “mega” – a real feeling of exhilaration that could not be dampened even by the severe storms that passed the city. Derwesten reports that many visitors quickly plunged into the party night.
Mia Julia, an integral part of the Mallorca scene, brought the atmosphere to a boiling point at the grand finale. Other popular artists such as Mickie Krause, Isi Glück and Frenzy also performed alongside her. The gates opened at 12:00 p.m. and the first sounds of “Island Fever” didn't take long to arrive, as the artists' performances started at 1:00 p.m. Rudolf Weber-Arena announced the details and the extensive line-up that attracted visitors in droves.
Visitor experiences and organizational challenges
Despite the fantastic atmosphere, there were some challenges: Many guests reported long waiting times both at the entrance and at the concession stands, which spoiled the party mood for some. You could wait up to an hour for your drink. The organizers recognized these problems and have already announced that they would like to improve the organization for next year's event. At least returning visitors still have the anticipation of the next “Island Fever”, which is planned for June 13, 2026.
However, security staff praised the overall positive mood among guests throughout the entire event. They sensed that people were in the mood to celebrate - which was also reflected in the desire of many fans to secure tickets for the upcoming edition early. Artists like Julian Sommer, Marc Eggers, DJ Ötzi and many more have already been confirmed for the next event and promise to get the people of Cologne dancing again in 2026.
The biggest Mallorca party
“Island Fever” has become a fixture on the party calendar over the years. People who love to party are always drawn to the Rudolf Weber Arena. Majorca-in also offers interesting information about the event and the artists who bring the audience a piece of Mallorca to Oberhausen.
Overall, “Island Fever 2025” was a success, despite the organizational setbacks. The exciting beats, the hot temperatures and the people celebrating made it a day that everyone will remember for a long time.
