Castle Party Festival 2025 – Her Own World behind the scenes

We didn’t perform as HER OWN WORLD this year at Castle Party Festival, but each of us still played a part in this wonderful, gothic madness – and we loved every second of it.

Yu, our vocalist, made a guest appearance with Frontal Boundary during their Sunday show, singing the track „Resurrect Me”. It was a powerful and emotional moment – the energy on stage was incredible, and the guys were truly happy with how it turned out. It was a beautiful blend of sounds and souls.

ad-x, our keyboardist and co-founder of HER OWN WORLD, brought his other project H.EXE to Castle Party. Their concert was on Sunday as well – and it was a total blast. The show was explosive, raw, and emotional – exactly what you’d expect from a release gig for their new album, „Anthems of the Unseen Tide”. The audience loved it, and the stage was literally on fire – in spirit and in energy.

On Saturday evening, Louve, our performer, delivered a stunning fireshow, which became one of the most talked-about visual acts of the night. The performance was deeply inspired by Viking and ritualistic themes – wild, entrancing, and full of raw power.

Besides our individual appearances, Castle Party 2025 was – as always – a celebration of the alternative scene, a meeting point for friends and creative souls from all around Europe and beyond. We reconnected with so many familiar faces – from Poland, Germany, the Czech Republic, the US… We were also thrilled to meet again:

  • Raphaël Beck, our label boss from DarkTunes Music Group

  • Rene, the wonderful soul behind Dark Malta Festival

  • Jaro, mastermind of Prague Gothic Treffen

Even though HER OWN WORLD didn’t play as a band this time, we’re incredibly proud of each other. We believe in adding our own creative spark wherever we can – whether through vocals, soundscapes or fire.

Castle Party, once again, you reminded us why this place is so magical. Thank you for the energy, the hugs, the music, and the memories. Until next time! 🖤
