Overview

The 32nd Cottbus City Festival in 2025 transformed the city center into a continuous festival mile with six stages, international acts, a Sorbian-Wendish program in Puschkinpark, over 80 caterers, and rides. The laser show on Sunday evening was also the festival finale in 2025. Free admission.

32nd Cottbus City Festival 2025

The 32nd edition of the City Festival in August 2025, as every year, attracted around 150,000 visitors to the Cottbus city center. On six stages, Schlager, pop, electro, rock, and classical music alternated, Puschkinpark was the venue for the Sorbian-Wendish program, and the festival mile from Altmarkt to Spremberger Straße offered culinary and gastronomic diversity.

The organizer, the City of Cottbus with Stadtfest Cottbus GmbH, confirmed the festival's reputation in 2025 as the "largest party in the South Brandenburg megaregion." With its 33rd edition in 2026, the festival will move to the earlier date in June.
