Brunswick’s 2026 Cultural Boom: Carnivals, Acrobatics and Festivals for All
Brunswick is set to host a vibrant cultural programme in 2026. Events will range from major festivals and open-air concerts to thought-provoking exhibitions and family-friendly shows. The city’s calendar includes long-running traditions alongside fresh, inclusive experiences.
The year kicks off with the 48th Schoduvel carnival parade on February 15. Starting at Europaplatz, the colourful procession will wind through the city centre, bringing music and costumes to the streets. Just days later, on January 24, the Volkswagen Halle will stage Fireworks of Gymnastics, an acrobatics show featuring high-energy performances.
The 2026 programme reflects Brunswick’s mix of tradition and innovation. Exhibitions will cover history, culture, and science, while festivals and concerts cater to diverse audiences. The city’s events aim to engage locals and visitors alike throughout the year, including concerts near me.
