Year-round concert and cultural series in the historic Gifhorn train station building
The historic Gifhorn train station is a prime example of repurposing an industrial monument into a vibrant cultural space. The original station building, with its waiting room, ticket hall, and restaurant, has been extensively renovated to become a versatile cultural venue. The atmosphere blends the flair of station architecture with modern cultural aspirations.
The Kultbahnhof's program encompasses the full spectrum of the contemporary cultural landscape: singer-songwriters and indie concerts, jazz, blues, rock, and pop, cabaret and political satire, readings by authors, theater performances, occasional performances, and multimedia projects. In doing so, the Kultbahnhof fills a niche that would otherwise be rarely catered to in a town the size of Gifhorn.
One of the highlights of the 2026 program year is the Unser-Aller-Festival, which kicks off on June 5, 2026, with a performance by Jesper Munk. The German-British singer-songwriter has been one of the most distinguished representatives of his genre in the German-speaking world for years. His performance at the Kultbahnhof promises an intense concert experience in a historic setting.
The high ceilings of the former train station create exceptional acoustics, particularly suitable for acoustic concerts and singer-songwriter performances. The close proximity between stage and audience allows for intimate concert evenings, which are not possible in larger venues. This quality also makes the Kultbahnhof attractive to artists of supra-regional renown.
The complete 2026 program is continuously updated on the Kultbahnhof's website. The program managers ensure a healthy mix of regionally rooted acts, nationally known names, and promising newcomers. The venue sees itself as a stage for artists who can showcase their strengths in a focused concert format – beyond the large halls, beyond festival logic.
The acoustics of the high station rooms, the close proximity between stage and audience, and the historic ambiance create concert evenings of high intensity. Those who want to experience a singer-songwriter concert with a genuine concert character will find the right setting at the Kultbahnhof.
The year-round 2026 program is continuously updated. Previously confirmed and particularly highlighted:
