Kulturkrafttage Einbeck

Culture in an Industrial Monument

Since its inception, the Kulturkrafttage Einbeck has established itself as a platform for an extraordinary encounter between music, literature, and urban industrial culture. The venue is the PS.SPEICHER Einbeck, a former grain warehouse that now houses one of the largest collections of historic vehicles in Germany. The monumental architecture and unusual acoustics create a special setting for concerts and readings.

Five Years of Kulturkrafttage

The 2026 edition celebrates the festival's fifth anniversary. In just a few years, the format has become a fixture on the Lower Saxony cultural calendar, bringing internationally acclaimed artists to the Einbeck region. From the opening concert with internationally celebrated soloists to the Sunday matinee with a jazz program, the festival offers a rich and diverse experience.

High-Caliber Artist Lineup

The 2026 lineup includes, among others, the piano duo Bartha and Rinderle, accordion virtuoso Ksenija Sidorova with the Signum Saxophone Quartet, a Kulturkraft talk with actor Heikko Deutschmann, and a closing evening that combines the narratives of the Brüder Löwenherz with Nordic jazz sounds. This program diversity exemplifies the signature of the Kulturkrafttage: high artistic quality, bold combinations, and intimate encounters between the audience and artists.

Festival Venue PS.SPEICHER

The PS.SPEICHER Einbeck opened in 2014 as a mobility museum and houses over 400 historic motorcycles, cars, and trucks. During the Kulturkrafttage, parts of the Speicher are transformed into concert halls and reading rooms – an exciting fusion of industrial and high culture that makes the festival unique.
