Summer Festival at the Volksfestplatz: Multi-day Pop Stages
A multi-day festival with live stages, dance floors, food and design stands is planned for the coming summer at the Volksfestplatz. Visitors can look forward to a broad pop spectrum – from singer-songwriter and band acts to electronic sets and cross-genre program items.
What visitors should plan for
- Several evenings with live music and curated side stages are planned.
- A fashion focus with streetwear and upcycling elements is expected.
- Family-friendly time slots in the early evening are planned; later slots are aimed at night owls.
- Culinary offerings and creative markets complement the music program.
Tip: If you have your eye on certain evenings, you should plan ticket purchases and travel early, as popular slots can sell out quickly.
Youth and Culture House: Small Stage, Big Connection
The municipal youth and culture house on Dorfener Straße is once again announcing regular concert and club evenings. Formats for hip-hop, metal, rock, as well as experimental sessions with electronic and improvised elements are planned.
Planned formats
- Showcases for newcomers with short live sets and feedback rounds.
- Genre nights with curated line-ups and regional guests.
- Open stages and jam sessions for spontaneous collaborations.
- Accompanying workshops on recording, social media, and stage presence.
Note: Application windows and technical rider requirements for acts and collectives will be published in advance; places are limited.
“Music and Meditation”: Pop in Church Spaces
The church concert series in Altenerding continues to focus on decelerated arrangements that combine pop, film, and classically influenced pieces. Visitors can expect meditative programs with reduced instrumentation, text impulses, and light accents.
What to expect
- Short, calm concert formats with seating and clear admission times.
- Acoustic or chamber music ensembles for a contemplative setting.
- Opportunity for silent reflection – also for listeners who avoid club atmospheres.
Munich as an Impulse Generator: Next Waves
Due to its proximity to the metropolis, guest appearances, collaborations, and workshops are to be expected, bringing current trends in pop, jazz, electronic music, and street culture to Erding. Commuting musicians and collectives are likely to bring new impulses to local formats.
- Cooperation evenings with Munich acts on Erding stages.
- Production days where artists combine sessions and meet-ups.
- Curated cross-over between band and club aesthetics.
