A citizens' initiative becomes a concert series

SummerSounds originated from Konradsreuth resident Sven Konhäuser, who, after four years in the Upper Franconian municipality in the Hof district, presented his idea to the municipal council: small, atmospherically dense courtyard concerts in Konradsreuth Castle — inspired by the successful courtyard concert programs in neighboring communities like Köditz. The premiere took place in 2024; since then, the format has become a firm fixture in the town's summer calendar.

What awaits you

The courtyard of Konradsreuth Castle is an extraordinary concert venue: baroque walls on four sides, a limited seating area for approx. 200–300 guests, and acoustics that singers and the audience alike appreciate. The atmosphere is intimate, the setting unmistakable — not a mass concert, but a summer highlight for the Hof/Saaletal region and its music lovers.

Concept and idea

Konhäuser's motivation is the joy of organizing: 'I enjoy organizing something and I enjoy it when others have fun.' The concept is accessible — concerts in a familiar neighborhood, without major advance booking hurdles, featuring regional or national acts whose style fits the castle courtyard: singer/songwriters, acoustic rock bands, small big band or cover ensembles.
