About Musikfest Blumenthal

Musikfest Blumenthal transforms the idyllic Schloss Blumenthal in Aichach-Klingen into a classical festival area for three days. International classical stars and the specially founded festival orchestra Camerata Vitilo bring Mozart, Mendelssohn, Beethoven, and cross-genre crossover programs directly to the castle. The festival operates on a 'Pay what you can' principle – admission to all concerts is freely selectable. The organizer is the non-profit association Musikfest Blumenthal e.V., which combines classical music with environmental education and social engagement.

Classical Music in a Bavarian Castle

Schloss Blumenthal is a Renaissance castle in family ownership, located in the Klingen district of the town of Aichach, in the Aichach-Friedberg district. Over the past few years, the castle courtyard has established itself as an open-air stage and the castle interior as a chamber music hall. With Musikfest Blumenthal, this has become an independent classical festival in 2021, now heading into its sixth edition.

Camerata Vitilo – A Top-Tier Festival Orchestra

At the heart of the festival is the Camerata Vitilo, a festival orchestra specially assembled for the event with around 40 musicians. The members come from leading German symphony orchestras and major music conservatories – a standard not typically expected at a castle festival in the countryside.

Pay What You Can – Classical Music for Everyone

A special feature: Admission to the concerts is freely selectable – each visitor decides for themselves what they are willing to pay for a ticket. This concept lowers the barrier to classical music and aligns with the non-profit spirit of the organizer, Musikfest Blumenthal e.V., which actively highlights climate protection and social engagement in its profile.

Three Days, Many Formats

From children's concerts to a 'Music meets Poetry Slam' promenade concert to a grand orchestral evening featuring Mendelssohn's 1st Symphony and Beethoven's 5th Symphony, the festival demonstrates that classical music in 2026 doesn't have to be academic. A 'Grenzenlos' (Borderless) concert, which blends the sound of the 1960s with classical music, is also part of the program.

Aichach-Friedberg and the Wittelsbach Region

Aichach-Klingen is located in the Wittelsbach Land, a region in northern Swabia with Baroque monasteries, medieval market squares, and a rich aristocratic history. Visitors to the festival can easily combine their stay with excursions to Aichach, Pöttmes, or Friedberg.

Musikfest Blumenthal — edition 2026

The sixth edition of Musikfest Schloss Blumenthal takes place from July 31 to August 2, 2026. On the program: orchestral evening with Mozart, 'Grenzenlos' concert (Classical meets 60s), children's concert '7 Little Tones in One Go', education concert for young talents, a promenade concert 'Music meets Poetry Slam', and the festival finale with Mendelssohn's 1st and Beethoven's 5th Symphonies.

Three days of music festival at Schloss Blumenthal in Aichach-Klingen: From July 31 to August 2, 2026, Camerata Vitilo and guests will perform at various locations within the castle. The organizer is the non-profit Musikfest Blumenthal e.V.
