27th edition of the free Saturday jazz concerts under the glass roof at Hugo-Bork-Platz
Jazz & more was launched at the beginning of the millennium and has since become a fixture in Wolfsburg's summer cultural calendar. The concert series combines high-quality live music with accessible enjoyment: no admission fees, free entry for everyone, and a central location in the city center. This combination has built a loyal regular audience for almost three decades while continuously attracting new listeners to jazz.
The distinctive glass roof at Hugo-Bork-Platz offers a special concert atmosphere: weatherproof, with good acoustics, and an urban flair that places jazz at the heart of city life. The concerts take place every Saturday from 11 AM to 2 PM, making them ideally positioned to combine a Saturday outing in the city center with musical enjoyment. Cafés and restaurants in the immediate vicinity benefit from the additional vibrancy.
The long-standing cooperation with IG Metall Wolfsburg is a remarkable example of the connection between business, trade unions, and cultural work. The union supports the concert series financially, making the free offering possible in the first place. This form of civic-union engagement is exemplary and underscores the importance of culture as a shared responsibility.
The series spans six Saturdays, creating a continuous meeting point in the Wolfsburg summer. The midday timing is ideal: Saturday visitors, shoppers, and café-goers can integrate the concert into their day without long waiting times.
The exact program for 2026 and the lineups will be published by the organizer in early summer. The series traditionally features regional jazz and blues ensembles as well as national guests.
