Summer Vibes Bopfingen 2026

Three-Day Festival at the Ipf

From Friday, July 31, to Sunday, August 2, 2026, the 10th edition of Summer Vibes Bopfingen will take place — one of the most atmospheric open-air festivals in the Ostalb region. The venue is the Stadtgarten Bopfingen, a small, easily accessible city park that makes every concert an intense live experience due to the special proximity between stage and audience. The organizer is the event company "Events am Ipf," which is active in Bopfingen with a number of other events.

Friday: Break Free — Queen Tribute

The Queen tribute band Break Free opens the Friday. Tribute concerts for Queen — one of the most popular rock bands in history — work particularly well on open-air stages: the anthem-like character of many Queen songs ("Bohemian Rhapsody", "We Are the Champions", "Don't Stop Me Now") creates a sing-along atmosphere, and the recognizability of the pieces makes tribute concerts a sure-fire success format.

Saturday: No Angels — TwentyFive Live 2026

Saturday is the undisputed highlight: No Angels, Germany's most successful girl group of all time, will perform from 8 PM. In 2026, No Angels will celebrate their 25th band anniversary with the "TwentyFive Live 2026" tour. The band was formed in 2000 in the first season of the casting show "Popstars" and immediately had a number-one hit with "Daylight In Your Eyes". Other classics: "There Must Be An Angel", "Something About Us", "Still in Love with You", "Rivers of Joy", "No Angel (It's All In Your Mind)". Tickets via Eventim from €68.20.

Sunday: Serdar Karibik with "Ganz großes Kino"

Serdar Karibik will conclude the festival on Sunday with his stand-up comedy program "Ganz großes Kino" (Big Cinema). Another program item — not a concert, but comedy — that transforms the Stadtgarten into an open-air theater. The mix of concert, comedy, and tribute formats is typical for Summer Vibes Bopfingen and explains the festival's broad appeal.

Bopfingen — Town at the Ipf

Bopfingen, a town of around 12,000 inhabitants in the Ostalb district, is located at the foot of the Ipf — a striking, early Celtic mountain plateau that has overlooked the town for over 2,500 years. The Ipf is one of the most important archaeological monuments in southern Germany — a Celtic princely seat complex, the remains of which are still visible today. Bopfingen is located on the eastern edge of the Ostalb district, on the border with Bavaria. The town with its Stadtgarten and summer festival culture makes it a surprisingly vibrant small festival location.
