About Delmenhorster Sommerwiese

The Delmenhorster Sommerwiese is the multi-week summer event on the hotel meadow opposite the historic water tower. From May 23 to July 20, 2026, Andreas Kutschenbauer and his event service will transform the central meadow into a relaxed beer garden and a compact Volksfest (public festival). It is open Wednesday to Sunday from 12 PM to 8 PM, and Fridays and Saturdays until 10 PM. The program includes live music, the popular revival parties "Heaven" and "La Palma", football broadcasts on a big screen, and a Father's Day kickoff on May 14, 2026, starting at 11 AM. Families, after-work guests, and football fans meet in a charming, urban atmosphere against the backdrop of the water tower – one of Delmenhorst's most beautiful summer locations.

Hotel Meadow by the Water Tower

Delmenhorst's historic water tower is one of the city's most distinctive landmarks. The meadow opposite used to be the site of a hotel – today it serves as an urban recreational area and offers the ideal backdrop for a summer open-air event. With seating, beer benches, and shady spots, the Sommerwiese creates a relaxed retreat right in the heart of the city.

Beer Garden and Open-Air Gastronomy

The focus is on the beer garden with North German beers, soft drinks, lemonades, and a compact menu of hearty and summery classics. Anyone planning a relaxed evening after work, a get-together with friends, or a family day will find the right atmosphere here.

Amusement Rides and Family Zone

Selected amusement rides are available on the meadow. Children will find carousels, smaller play areas, and a relaxed atmosphere. The Sommerwiese thus complements the beer garden with a classic, small Volksfest (public festival) element.

Live Music and Revival Parties

Bands play live on selected weekends, in addition to the popular revival parties "Heaven" and "La Palma," which musically recall the legendary Delmenhorst discos of past decades. Dance evenings with hits from the 80s and 90s create a lively atmosphere.

Football Broadcasts

During major football tournaments and selected Bundesliga match days, the games will be broadcast on a big screen. Public viewing in a relaxed beer garden atmosphere is an additional draw.

Father's Day on May 14, 2026

The Sommerwiese opens its doors on Father's Day starting at 11 AM, inviting guests for an extended day in the beer garden. A morning pint, live music, and sunny weather (if fortune smiles) will mark the start of the season.
