Sea of lights in Seelz

Fascinating light art, impressive street performers, rousing live music, and culinary delights: On November 20, 2026, downtown Seelze will once again be aglow with a mesmerizing world of lights.

Sea of lights in Seelz

At the Seelzer Lichtermeer, visitors can look forward to an atmospheric evening featuring impressive illuminations, a variety of live music, spectacular walking acts, and a thrilling fire show.

Highlights include Art Tremendo’s “Glowing Beetles,” the “Rabenfeuer” fire show, and “Spray & Glow” with Tristan Siewert—aka “Das Snak Tag”—who will be showcasing creative graffiti art. There will also be live music on several stages and numerous activities for all ages.

There’s plenty to eat and drink as well: A wide variety of culinary offerings along Hannoversche Straße invite you to enjoy yourself and linger. Special events organized by Seelze’s shops, service providers, and clubs round out the program and create a special atmosphere in the downtown area.

The evening will culminate at 8:30 p.m. with a spectacular fireworks display on Town Hall Square, which—accompanied by music—will transform the sky above Seelze into a sparkling sea of lights.

Directions and Detours

Large sections of Hannoversche Straße, as well as short stretches of Wunstorfer Straße and Goethestraße in Seelze, will be closed to motor vehicle traffic for 24 hours, from 7:00 a.m. on Friday, November 20, until 7:00 a.m. on Saturday, November 21.

The city of Seelze recommends using public transportation to get to the Seelze Sea of Lights. The event area is about a three-minute walk from the Seelze train station. During the Seelze Sea of Lights, Regiobus public transportation will be rerouted in both directions via Beethovenstraße and Kantstraße. As a result, the regular bus stops “Alter Krug” and “Ulmenstraße” will not be served. Regiobus will therefore set up temporary stops on Südstraße and Ulmenstraße. Bus lines 700, 431, 572, 573, 575, and N70 are affected by the detour.
