Krass Kultur Crash Festival
2025
Edition 2025 — Finished
Edition 2025 — Krass Festival
Looking Back at 2025
In 2025, the festival was again spread across Kampnagel as the main venue, along with other Hamburg locations. International artists from literature, performance, music, and sociology participated, with the program addressing socio-political issues from a transcultural perspective. Kunstwerk e.V. and Kampnagel ensured production, and the Hamburg Ministry of Culture and Media provided institutional support.
In the Hamburg-Nord district, Winterhude or Barmbek-Süd neighborhoods, Kampnagel has been one of the most important venues for independent theater and performance work in Germany for decades — the Krass Festival has utilized this infrastructure since its first edition in 2012.
