Kulturstrand & Maximiliansstrand

Summer, beach and culture in Munich

A beach and holiday feeling can be found at the Kulturstrand in the centre of Munich in summer. Anyone can come here and enjoy the view of the Isar from the Cornelius Bridge.  In 2024, a second Urbanauten address will open: Maximiliansstrand at the Wittelsbacherbrunnen!

The "urbanauten Kulturstrand" will be back again this year on the Corneliusbrücke from May up to September. It enables all Munich citizens and of course all guests to experience the summer holiday feeling on the beach right by the Isar. Between live-music, film screenings and workshops, there are many other events on the programme, further details on the several events can be found on the urbanauten website.

Every day from 12 p.m. to 11 p.m. people can meet here to relax and enjoy the cultural programme. Everyone is welcome to think, talk and help design the event. In combination with the beach feeling, visitors can expect a wide range of music, children's and sports programme. On eight days the so-called courtyard concerts are going to take place with live-music, a lounge and a photo booth.

All dates for the entire programme or other events can be found in the Kulturstrand programme calendar and on the official Facebook page of the urbanauten. On this page, the organisers also provide information about rain, highlights and the life at the Kulturstrand.

 

Date: from 1 May to 9 September 2024

Venue: Kulturstrand of the urbanauten, Isarbalkon on the Corneliusbrücke

Admission and all activities are free of charge for everyone!

Newly opened: The Maximilian beach at the Wittelsbacherbrunnen fountain

A second "Kulturstrand" also opened in Munich in mid-May 2024: Maximilian's Beach directly behind the Wittelsbacherbrunnen fountain. The organisers behind Urbanauten, who also run the cultural beach on the Isar, had 26 tonnes of sand piled up there. Visitors to Stachus now not only get that beach feeling, but also live concerts and cool drinks. The Maximiliansstrand runs just as long as the Kulturstrand! 

 

Date: from 17 May to 9 September 2024

Venue: Maximiliansstrand, behind the Wittelsbacherbrunnen

Admission and all activities are free of charge for everyone!
