Spectacle in the Kurpark Bad Salzdetfurth

The Spa Park as a Stage

The Kurpark Bad Salzdetfurth is one of the defining landmarks of the Lower Saxon brine spa town. Characterized by two historic graduation towers, the outdoor mineral pool, expansive lawns, shady tree-lined avenues, and the Lamme river flowing through the park, it offers an extraordinary backdrop for an open-air festival. The Spectacle in the Kurpark fully utilizes this setting: small stages, performance areas, and meeting points are created at various locations within the park, inviting visitors to stroll around.

Circus and Artistry

The focus is on artists from the fields of contemporary circus and street art: aerial silk acrobats, jugglers, equilibrists, clowns, stilt walkers, walking acts, and dance companies. The performances are short, concise, and designed so that families with children can easily move from one show to the next.

Program for All Generations

The Spectacle is deliberately designed as a family festival. Interactive workshops, children's acrobatics, craft stations, and face painting complement the stage programs. For adults, there are more sophisticated dance productions, atmospheric light installations in the evening, and musical contributions at the stage points.

Atmosphere of the Brine Spa Town

Bad Salzdetfurth, located in the southern part of the Hildesheim district, has a long tradition of hospitality as a recognized brine spa and climatic health resort. The Spectacle in the Kurpark opens this spa atmosphere to a broad audience, combining classic spa park flair with the energy of a contemporary festival.

Three Days of Program

The festival spans three days – from Thursday evening (opening) to Sunday afternoon (family finale). Those planning a day trip should best choose Saturday or Sunday with the densest program. Those staying longer will benefit from the quieter atmosphere of the evening events and the special mood in the graduation towers at dusk.
