About Autostadt Summer Festival

The Autostadt Wolfsburg Summer Festival is one of Northern Germany's most significant open-air festivals, transforming the Autostadt grounds from July 3rd to August 16th, 2026, into a six-week stage for international and national music stars. On two stages—the spectacular Lagoon Stage with the iconic car towers in the background and the more intimate Porsche Stage—29 acts from diverse musical worlds will perform. Featuring Rita Ora, Jovanotti, OneRepublic, Zucchero, Joss Stone, Robin Schulz, Amy Macdonald, Calum Scott, and many more, the festival gathers a top-class lineup. Accompanied by the Cool Summer Island with a sandy beach and beach club in the harbor basin, attending the festival becomes a multi-hour experience of music, atmosphere, and summer vibes in the heart of Wolfsburg.

Autostadt as a Unique Festival Location

Autostadt Wolfsburg is more than a theme park—it's a walkable brand world centered around the automobile, featuring expansive parks, pavilions, water features, and the world-renowned glass car towers where finished Volkswagen vehicles await collection. This backdrop makes the Summer Festival a visually extraordinary concert experience: as the sun sets over the car towers and the Lagoon Stage is illuminated, an atmosphere is created that is unique worldwide.

Two Stages, 29 Concerts

The Lagoon Stage, the visual centerpiece of the festival, is located directly on the harbor basin and offers a spectacular atmosphere with the iconic car towers in the background. Concerts here start at 8 PM. The Porsche Stage, as the second venue, creates a more intimate concert setting for smaller acts, with music starting at 6 PM. Spread across the six festival weeks are 29 acts with a stylistic spectrum ranging from pop and rock to soul, funk, singer-songwriter, electronic beats, and Italo-pop.

Cool Summer Island and Festival Flair

Beyond the concerts, the harbor basin transforms into a summer experience area with the Cool Summer Island, featuring a sandy beach and beach club. Here, you can relax before and after the concerts, enjoy a cool refreshment, or soak up the festival atmosphere in a relaxed setting. With tickets starting at €21.20 and a top price of €54.50, the festival is also attractively priced, offering exceptional value for money for top-class acts.
