About Kissinger Kabarettherbst

The Kissinger Kabarettherbst is one of the most established Kabarett festivals in Lower Franconia. From the end of September to mid-November, Bayer. Staatsbad Bad Kissingen GmbH transforms the venerable Kurtheater into a stage for Germany's best Kabarett artists for eight evenings — from Lars Reichow to Christine Eixenberger to Jochen Malmsheimer. Fine humor, profound fun, and well-measured wit characterize the program. Bad Kissingen, the traditional Franconian spa town in the district of Bad Kissingen, thus complements its spa and concert program with an autumnal wrinkle-maker between the Saale river and the spa gardens.

Eight Evenings, Eight Voices

The Kissinger Kabarettherbst has long been a fixture in the Franconian cultural autumn. Over eight evenings between the end of September and mid-November, Bayer. Staatsbad Bad Kissingen GmbH puts together a program that ranges from political Kabarett to musical performances to literary stage shows. Each evening is a solo production — the appeal lies in the diversity of voices.

Kurtheater Bad Kissingen — Historic Stage

The venue is the Kurtheater at Theaterplatz 1, right in the center of Bad Kissingen. The building, with its auditorium seating around 500, was built in the early 20th century and is considered an ideal stage for spoken-word and musical Kabarett due to its intimate acoustics. Performances regularly start at 7:30 PM.

Bad Kissingen — Franconian Spa Town with UNESCO Status

With just under 23,000 inhabitants, Bad Kissingen is the largest town in the district of Bad Kissingen (Lower Franconia administrative region, Bavaria). Since 2021, the town and its spa district have been part of the UNESCO World Heritage site "Great Spa Towns of Europe". The Kabarettherbst builds on the cultural tradition of the spa town — where Brahms, Bismarck, and Tolstoy strolled in the 19th century, today the audience laughs about current events.

What Defines the Autumn

Unlike larger multi-day festivals, the Kabarettherbst is spread over almost two months. Each evening is a solo performance; the audience recognizes each other. Those who want to take a stroll in the Kurpark or hike along the Saale river in between have time for it. This makes the Kabarettherbst the perfect occasion for a combination of culture and a short break in the Franconian Saale valley.

Kissinger Kabarettherbst — edition 2026

Eight Kabarett evenings at the Kurtheater Bad Kissingen from September 26 to November 21, 2026. Lars Reichow opens, Jochen Malmsheimer closes. In between, Dave Davis, René Sydow, Christine Eixenberger, Tina Teubner, Mathias Tretter, and Stefan Danziger perform. All start at 7:30 PM.

The 2026 edition offers a classic Kabarett spectrum: political punchlines, musical solo programs, and literary-philosophical evenings.

Tickets for each date are available individually through the official festival website or the Bad Kissingen Tourist Information.
