The UNI AIR Band Contest is sponsored by the Klippel Foundation
UNI AIR Band and DJ Contest 2026
The band Frivol won the 2026 final of the UNI AIR student band and DJ contest
The atmosphere was great on Wednesday evening at UNI AIR—six bands had competed for the sponsorship prizes offered by the Studentenwerk Dresden: Kisska, Maneko, Lumonight, Artemida, Tom Two, and Frivol. In the end, the band Frivol emerged as the winner and took home prize money of 1,200 euros.
Second place went to Maneko and third place to Kisska. Between the band performances, DJs Omar, DiLemma, and Stiftung Atzentest kept the party atmosphere going.
A first for UNI AIR took place between the competition and the awards ceremony: a performance by French guests—singer Alexia and the band Miss me yet. The artists came to Dresden as winners of the CROUs Versailles music competition. While singer Alexia brought a slightly more subdued vibe to the stage, the band Miss me yet really heated up the atmosphere once again.
