Overview

In 2025, the Ulmer Zelt in Friedrichsau once again offered seven weeks of summer culture in Ulm and Neu-Ulm. Over 100 events — main program in the large tent, children's program, and tent lounge — attracted tens of thousands of visitors. As always, a well-attended event, with headliners from pop, indie, rock, and cabaret.

Ulmer Zelt 2025

The Ulmer Zelt 2025 has once again confirmed its established position as the most important summer cultural festival in Ulm and the wider Danube region. For seven weeks, the large circus tent in the Friedrichsau shaped the cityscape in the Böfingen district — thousands of visitors flocked to the city park every evening, whether for the major concerts, cabaret evenings, readings, or children's events.

As every year, Ulmer Zelt e.V. set a clear musical tone with a mix of established German acts, international guests, and newcomer bands. The beer garden under the old linden trees, the colorful flea markets in the afternoon, and the dedicated team of helpers made the festival more than just a concert series in 2025 — it's a Ulm summer institution.
