Overview

The 31st Umsonst & Draußen Festival Karlstadt 2025 took place from July 17th to 19th at Fetenplatz Saupurzel. Three days of indie, pop, alternative with free admission, organized by Troja e.V. with hundreds of volunteers. Around 25 acts performed on two stages, including Urlaub in Polen on July 17th — a proven festival weekend for the Franconian indie scene.

The 31st edition in 2025 continued the long-standing tradition of the Karlstadt Umsonst & Draußen. Three days of curated indie, pop, and alternative festival at Fetenplatz Saupurzel, supported by a volunteer team and the genuine enthusiasm of the organizers.

As every year, visitors came from Karlstadt, the Main-Spessart district, the wider Mainfranken region (Würzburg, Schweinfurt, Marktheidenfeld), but also from Berlin, Hamburg, and southern Germany — the U&D festival community is networked across the region. On stage, the usual mix of German newcomers, established indie bands, and some international acts. After the stage program, the beloved campfire with acoustic sets until the early morning hours. Free admission, family-friendly festival atmosphere, donations welcome.
