Three days of concerts, wine stands, and family entertainment in the spa park by Scharmützelsee — Free admission
With around 6,000 inhabitants, Bad Saarow is one of Brandenburg's best-known spa towns, located directly on Scharmützelsee — a 12-kilometer-long, largely undeveloped lake in the Oder-Spree district. The spa park, with its linden avenues, the Kurhaus, and the lakeside promenade, is the center of summer town life. On the first weekend of July 2026, it will become the stage for the Summer Festival.
Friday, July 3rd (4:00 PM–10:00 PM): Opening with Daniel Hilpert & Band feat. Dolan Jose, presenting their "30 Years Restless" anniversary tour at the concert at 6:00 PM. Saturday, July 4th (1:00 PM–11:00 PM): Family Day — "Die Band" plays hits from the 80s and 90s at 3:00 PM; starting at 8:30 PM, the "ABBA-Fever" tribute show follows. Sunday, July 5th (12:00 PM–6:00 PM): Closing with BigBand Köpenick, The Art Collective (excerpts from the musical "Chicago"), and Bernd Kroll & Band.
Parallel to the stage program, the wine stands will open — selected wines from regional and supra-regional vintners, combined with culinary offerings. A craft market featuring pottery, felt art, and jewelry making complements the profile. For children, there will be face painting, interactive shows, and a dedicated stage program on Saturday.
Scharmützelsee — sometimes called the "Märkisches Meer" (March Sea) — is one of Brandenburg's most beautiful swimming lakes, with its clear water and small bays. Bad Saarow on the west bank has been a spa town since the beginning of the 20th century. The Summer Festival date in early July is embedded in the excursion season from Berlin (around 60 km away) — typically combining a day at the lake, a concert evening, and wine enjoyment.
The 2026 edition brings together three consecutive festival days in the spa park — each day with its own musical profile and long opening hours. Friday, with the Daniel Hilpert concert, opens the festival, Saturday is family-oriented with "Die Band" and ABBA-Fever, and Sunday concludes with big band classics and a musical program.
Bad Saarow Kur GmbH organizes the festival as a free event — part of the tourist enhancement of the spa town on Scharmützelsee.
