StadtpARTie Einbeck

Art and Culture in Extraordinary Locations

The StadtpARTie Einbeck fundamentally differs from classic cultural festivals. Instead of concentrating on a few established venues, the festival uses the entire city centre. Vacant retail spaces, historic buildings, churches, courtyards, and public squares become temporary galleries, concert halls, reading venues, and theatre stages. This strategy visibly revitalizes the city and gives the festival its unique character.

The Fourth Edition under the Motto Diversity without Borders

From May 13th to 17th, 2026, the fourth edition of StadtpARTie will take place. The motto Diversity without Borders reflects the festival's ambition to bring artistic genres, generations, and cultures into dialogue. 21 art exhibitions, around 30 music concerts, theatre performances, film screenings, readings, and workshops form a dense programme that is unique in its form in the region.

Musical Highlights

Highlights include performances by renowned artists. Singer Pe Werner and the a cappella group LaLeLu will perform. In addition, regional and national bands will present a broad spectrum from blues and jazz to classical chamber music – a programme that will surprise even an experienced audience.

Visual Arts in the Urban Space

With over 20 exhibitions, Einbeck's city centre becomes the largest temporary gallery in the region. Most exhibitions are free to access, making a spontaneous visit or a stroll through the city a cultural experience. Artists from Germany and other European countries present paintings, sculptures, photography, and installations in often unusual spatial contexts.

Commitment and Sponsorship

Behind StadtpARTie is an association of committed citizens who organize the festival on a voluntary basis. The event is supported by the City of Einbeck, regional companies, foundations, and sponsors. This broad sponsorship secures the high artistic quality and the open, inviting atmosphere of the festival.
