Runeheim Festival

Runeheim is a festival experience set in the gardens of Bloemenpark Appeltern in the Netherlands, where music, markets, nature and storytelling come together. Organised by RICO Events, the event invites visitors to wander through the gardens, discover performances and step into imaginative worlds. Its programme includes bands, themed experiences across several festival locations, a costume competition, market stalls and hospitality offerings. Visitors can plan their trip with practical information such as the programme schedule, site map, frequently asked questions and ticket details.

Runeheim also shares stories and media that extend the experience beyond the festival. Its videos include an aftermovie celebrating the 2026 event, while the Runecaster series explores the Elder Futhark runic alphabet, its meanings and the stories associated with the runes. The website provides news, a webshop and information for visitors, vendors and hospitality participants, as well as sign-up opportunities and volunteer vacancies. Runeheim’s warm, atmospheric character makes it a gathering place for discovering performances, markets and folklore in a garden setting.
