August 15, 2026 Art & Music Festival

For the second time, the 08/15 Art & Music Festival is bringing together Hannover’s diverse art and music scene. Following its successful premiere at Glocksee, the festival will move to UJZ Korn in 2026, creating a space where creative individuals, cultural professionals, and visitors can engage with one another.

From August 15 to 22, 2026, a varied daily program awaits you, showcasing the many facets of Hannover’s cultural scene. Discover new artists, experience extraordinary performances, and let the creative atmosphere inspire you.

Exhibition featuring works from all over Hanover

The exhibition opens its doors every day starting at 4 p.m. What makes it special is that anyone from Hannover can submit exactly one exhibit and become part of the group exhibition.

The result is a unique collection of works spanning a wide variety of media—from painting and photography to sculpture and experimental art. The exhibition has grown into a creative reflection of the city and invites visitors to discover something new time and again.

The diverse festival program

On the so-called “wild days” (Saturday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday), music takes center stage. Look forward to an exceptionally diverse lineup from Hanover.

From classical compositions to rap and indie to metal and laptop punk, the festival impressively showcases just how diverse the music from Hannover can be.

On the “chilled days” (Sunday through Wednesday), the spotlight shifts to other art forms.

• Monday: Prose, Poetry, and Comedy
• Tuesday: Theater and dance
• Wednesday: Film
