Southern Germany's Largest Street Painting Festival
Since its first edition in 2002, the Blumberg Street-Art Festival has developed into one of Europe's most important street painting gatherings. The main street of this small town in the southern Black Forest — an approximately 800-meter-long commercial street — is completely closed off for two days once a year and transformed into an open-air gallery with chalk, pastels, and special paints.
Three Areas: Master, Performer, Hobby
The festival is divided into three artistic areas:
- Master Area: Around 40 professional street painters from four continents create large-format 2D and 3D images. The 3D works use perspective anamorphosis to create astonishing depth illusions — visitors can step into the pictures and have their photos taken.
- Performer Area: Professional street artists from Europe and South America perform at various points along the main street — circus acts, juggling, acrobatics, fire-eaters, mimes, statue performers.
- Hobby Area: Young and aspiring artists from the community, schools, and even kindergartens are given their own space — a deliberate promotion of young artistic talent and the local community.
2 Days, 1 Wristband
The festival runs on Saturday and Sunday — on Saturday, painting and performances take place, with the artistic work reaching its peak on Saturday evening. On Sunday, the works remain visible, further performances continue, and visitors have time to admire the pictures at their leisure. The 2-day wristband costs 8 EUR — an affordable festival experience with high artistic value. Children under 16 have free admission.
Music Program on Saturday Evening
A stage in the market square offers live music on Saturday evening — cover bands, indie acts, and DJ sets. This transforms the festival into a social evening event, with many visitors staying in town well past midnight.
Blumberg in the Schwarzwald-Baar District
Blumberg is located in the Schwarzwald-Baar district in Baden-Württemberg, directly on the Wutach Gorge and the source of the Wutach river. With around 10,000 inhabitants, the town is small but is known regionally for the historic Sauschwänzlebahn (a 19th-century museum narrow-gauge railway) and the Street-Art Festival. The Schwarzwald-Baar district borders Switzerland, and the festival accordingly attracts an international audience from the trinational Lake Constance-Black Forest region.
Street-Art Blumberg — edition 2026
Main Street as an Open-Air Gallery
The 2026 edition continues the successful format. Blumberg's approximately 800-meter-long main street will be completely closed to traffic for the weekend and transformed into an open-air gallery. Around 40 professional street painters ('Masters') will work on their creations, many of them large-scale: 3D anamorphosis images with depth illusions, classic 2D portraits and landscapes, surreal compositions.
The performer acts will be spread along the street — juggling, acrobatics, fire-eaters, mimes, statue performances. In the Hobby area, students and even kindergarten children will have their own space.
