Summer in Thuringia
Many people can't wait to spend time at the beach or the lido during the hot summer months. However, summer also makes it possible to experience something special in urban environments. You can have no end of fun at open-air concerts and events, and cool local bars and eateries serve you sparkling drinks and snacks outdoors; however, there are also more athletic activities on offer right in the middle of the city centre. Discover sandy beaches, cosy spots next to cool rivers or a dreamy green oasis just outside the city with a fantastic ambience.
Events – our summer highlights
Summer, sunshine, party time! In the hot summer months, Thuringia's towns and cities offer many unusual outdoor events. During the day, you can stroll around traditional festivals, often accompanied by a fun fair, and markets; in the evening, you can dance to your heart's content at the trendiest open-air concerts. Relaxed sounds and the fact that everyone is out to enjoy themselves and in the mood to party promise unforgettable moments.
