Klosterhof Wiblingen Open Air

Klosterhof Wiblingen Open Air — Baroque Ensemble as Concert Stage

From June 26th to 28th, 2026, Wiblingen Monastery will open its courtyard for a three-day open-air concert series. The concept is simple and powerful: the former Benedictine abbey in Ulm-Wiblingen, with its baroque walls, the enclosed square of the monastery courtyard, and its exceptional acoustics, offers one of Southern Germany's most impressive open-air stages. Three concerts, three genres, three generations — from German pop to rap to a British rock legend.

The Three Concerts

• Friday, June 26th, 2026 — Wincent Weiss (SOLD OUT) — the German singer-songwriter and hitmaker kicks off his summer tour in the Klosterhof Wiblingen. Platinum hits, intimate stage presence, German-language mainstream pop somewhere between Mark Forster and Tim Bendzko.
• Saturday, June 27th, 2026 — Montez — the Bielefeld rapper has achieved several chart successes since his breakthrough in 2021. His style ranges from hip-hop and pop to emotional ballads. Sing-along choruses and festival atmosphere guaranteed.
• Sunday, June 28th, 2026 — Deep Purple — the British rock band active since 1968, pioneers of hard rock and early heavy metal („Smoke on the Water“, „Highway Star“, „Child in Time“). Living legends with improvisational live shows. A historic concert against a baroque backdrop.

Wiblingen Monastery — A Masterpiece of South German Baroque

Wiblingen Monastery is a former Benedictine abbey with roots dating back to the 11th century. The current baroque complex was developed from 1714 onwards and is one of the largest and most complete monastic ensembles in Southern Germany. The Library Hall, with its frescoes by Franz Martin Kuen, is considered one of the most beautiful Rococo library halls in Europe. Today, the monastery houses a museum (Klostermuseum Wiblingen, Schwäbisches Wallfahrtsmuseum) and serves as a venue. The courtyard, where the open-air concerts take place, is an enclosed square of baroque monastic buildings with the monastery church as a backdrop.

Ulm-Wiblingen — The Southern District

Wiblingen has been a district of Ulm in the south of the Danube city since 1972. The district is located about 5 km south of Ulm's city center; the monastery with its palace gardens is the main tourist attraction. Getting to the concert is easy by bus or car; concerts usually end between 10:30 PM and 11:00 PM — return to the city center by bus or shuttle.
