The event takes place in the Mühlenteich area and around St. Paul's Church, featuring bands and DJs from Bad Kreuznach and the surrounding region on a small stage. The dates for 2026 are the Thursdays in July, from 4 PM to 8 PM each day. With regional wine, food from the Nahe region, and a manageable musical concept, NaheChill positions itself as a summer format for everyone looking for a relaxed meeting place with good music after work. Admission is free.

Summer concert series on three dates

NaheChill is one of the relatively new event formats in Bad Kreuznach, which has quickly gained a loyal following in recent years. The concept is straightforward: on three Thursdays in July, a stage program will be presented in the Mühlenteich area and around St. Paul's Church, featuring bands and DJs from the local and regional scene.

Mühlenteich and St. Paul's Church as venues

The area around the Mühlenteich and St. Paul's Church is centrally located and offers a special atmosphere that sets it apart from large festival grounds. St. Paul's Church, one of Bad Kreuznach's important inner-city Protestant churches, forms an architectural focal point, while the Mühlenteich adds a special watery character to the event.

Regional music and specialties

The focus is on local and regional bands as well as DJs from the Nahe region. The musical spectrum ranges from pop and rock to jazz and electronic sets. The music is accompanied by culinary offerings featuring regional specialties and wine from Nahe winemakers.

After-work summer format

The Thursday dates from 4 PM to 8 PM make NaheChill a format specifically aimed at the after-work crowd. Those looking for a relaxed evening with wine, music, and socialising after work will find the right meeting place here. Admission is free, which supports easy access to the event.
