Take a deep breath, close your eyes and let the music take over. In summer 2026, Regensburg transforms into one big open-air stage: night after night, under the stars, with artists who fill stadiums and move hearts. From cabaret and world music in a historic castle garden to opera and rock'n'roll at Schloss Thurn & Taxis, from Bavarian beats at the Donau-Arena to pulsating concerts at the Jahnstadion – this summer has the right note for every heart.
Four major festivals, one city: The Schlossgarten Open Air at Prüfeninger Schlossgarten kicks things off in June with outstanding cabaret and music beneath ancient chestnut trees. The Schlossfestspiele Thurn & Taxis turn the princely courtyard into one of Germany's most captivating open-air stages – with opera, classical music and major pop stars. At the Jahnstadion and Donau-Arena, Luciano, Wincent Weiss and Maite Kelly deliver unforgettable summer evenings. And the Piazza Festival at the Gewerbepark closes out the summer with a firework of pop, rock, metal and techno.
Altstadthotel Arch on Haidplatz is your home for all of it: in the heart of the city, close to every venue, with a breakfast to set you up perfectly for the next concert night.
