About Kulturstrand Munich

Every summer, the M-net Kulturstrand brings a holiday feeling right into the heart of Munich: From May 1st to September 14th, the area around the Vater-Rhein-Brunnen at the Ludwigsbrücke is transformed into a free urban beach with sand, loungers, a stage, and a cultural program. Organized by the Urbanauten with M-net as the title sponsor, the Kulturstrand has been a popular meeting point for Munich residents of all ages for years. The program includes live music, DJ sets, the popular M-net Hofkonzerte on twelve Wednesday evenings, a flea market every second Sunday, sports and children's activities, and catering. In 2026, there will also be the Maximiliansstrand at the Wittelsbacher Brunnen. Admission is free – a relaxed summer spot for everyone, right on the banks of the Isar.

Urban Beach on the Isar

For years, the Urbanauten have been transforming the area around the Vater-Rhein-Brunnen at the Ludwigsbrücke into a summery urban beach. Sand, loungers, a stage, and a diverse cultural program bring a holiday feeling to the city center – with free admission and views of the Deutsches Museum and the Isar.

Cultural Program All Summer Long

Throughout the entire season, from early May to mid-September, there will be live music, DJ sets, and cultural formats. The highlight is the M-net Hofkonzerte on twelve Wednesday evenings featuring local artists from Munich and the surrounding area.

Flea Market, Sports, and Family

Every second Sunday, the Kulturstrand flea market takes place – a meeting point for second-hand treasures and encounters focused on sustainability. In addition, there is a sports area with balance boards and slacklines, as well as children's and family activities.

Sustainability and Getting There

The Kulturstrand focuses on tree protection, daily site cleaning, and insect-friendly lighting. It is easily accessible by tram and bus (Deutsches Museum or Ludwigsbrücke stop) and by subway (Fraunhoferstraße or Lehel).
