All choirs will be celebrated as “Voices of Brandenburg” and can enjoy a vibrant festival of choral music at unique historical venues. More info and registration via the link below.

Stadtbad Live! Sommerfest
On 4 July 2026, the former Bauhaus Stadtbad and E-WERK Luckenwalde will be transformed into a vibrant venue for Stadtbad Live! Sommerfest. This open-air cultural and community festival invites all residents and visitors to experience community spirit and cultural diversity first-hand. In close cooperation with the Brandenburg State Music Council and the State Choir Competition, which is also taking place on this day, the town will become the centre of the regional choir scene: over 20 choirs from across Brandenburg are expected to attend and shape the festival's musical programme.
A top-class programme of contemporary music and performance from E-WERK Luckenwalde will complement the festival, featuring FRANKIE (Franziska Aigner) and Enad Marouf, who will perform at the former Bauhaus Stadtbad for the last time before its comprehensive renovation ahead of reopening in 2028. At the same time, a lively street festival featuring local initiatives, culinary delights, and a variety of hands-on activities will invite visitors to celebrate democratic engagement and neighbourly togetherness. To allow visitors to experience the city's diversity fully, a shuttle service will connect the festival with the 120th anniversary celebrations of FSV 63 Luckenwalde, thus bridging the gap between culture and sport.
