Wiesbaden Castle Festival
The Wiesbadener Burgfestspiele e.V. association organizes a varied programme every year at Burg Sonnenberg and other beautiful venues in Wiesbaden.
In the historic setting in the castle garden of the old castle ruins in Sonnenberg, Talstraße 5, you can experience plays, concerts, musical theater and film nights in the open air during the summer months. Guests include internationally renowned artists as well as those from the Wiesbaden cultural scene and promising new talent.
Smaller events or those outside of the open-air season take place in the "Kaisersaal" at König-Adolf-Straße 6 in Sonnenberg.
Young talents present themselves at the Wiesbaden Castle Festival
Young talents from the Wiesbaden Music Academy present themselves for the second time at the Wiesbaden Castle Festival. Vocals, violin, guitar, trumpets and piano will be heard in a varied program with different instrumentations. They will span an arc from W.A. Mozart to the music of our time. The students of the Wiesbaden Music Academy come from different countries, which is why their musical contributions will also be international: Spanish songs for soprano and guitar and a French violin sonata will alternate with a trio for trumpets or romantic piano music. An aria from The Tales of Hoffmann, duets for soprano and alto and a polonaise by Chopin for cello round off the program. The Wiesbadener Burgfestspiele e.V. is delighted to once again present students from the music academy. This time, the concert will take place in the "Kaisersaal" because it is unfortunately not possible to transport a grand piano to the Burggarten. We very much hope to be able to continue the enjoyable cooperation with the WMA in future concerts.
- Time: 4 to 6 pm
- Admission free - but the artists are happy to receive donations!
- Admission half an hour before the concert starts, no reservations possible due to free seating.
About the Wiesbaden Castle Festival
The events are organized by the Wiesbadener Burgfestspiele e.V. association. The association has been active as an initiative since 2010. It was founded on 3 September 2014 to organize culturally sophisticated events in the castle garden of the old castle ruins in Wiesbaden-Sonnenberg. The Wiesbadener Burgfestpiele e.V. association is a non-profit organization. Any financial surpluses therefore go directly to the restoration of the castle ruins.
